Some days.

Some days, all I want to do is be able to float on the currents with her. That's especially true on days like this, when I've had virtually no sleep and the pain won't let up even the tiniest bit, and I'm so slammed work-wise that I didn't even have time to finish my first cup of coffee this morning, never mind get my second. [Yes, he got his second; why do you ask?]

The good news is that we've made some lovely sales the last couple of days, and a lot of that pressure is now off. Don't get me wrong; we still have to make a lot more sales between now and the end of the year to get through 2021, and the whole winter, in one piece. But I'll be able to call and make my eye appointment probably next week, I think.

BUT: If you're planning on commissioning gifts for the holidays, DO IT NOW. [And that includes just ordinary orders for the holidays, too.] Yes, I mean NOW. We're dealing with the same supply-chain issues as everyone else, and at some point soon, Wings is going to have to get silver and stones to produce holiday inventory, and I'm hearing that the price is already spiking on the metals. More to the point of what customers care about, we also can't guarantee shipping times this year, because see above. But I've posted a ton of Wings's new work lately, and there will be more in the days and weeks to come. If I could sell one of the big works, like one of the belts, maybe I could get us on the drill list for the well that is the only thing that's going to keep this land alive. But I've got way too much to do and too few hours and other resources to do it. 

Anyway, I have GOT to continue to make sales, so links are here:
  • Sales here
  • Testimonials here
  • Amazon wishlist here (priorities are first and foremost, the ladders, because see above, and coffee coffee coffee, which we're finding it harder and harder to get locally);
  • Patreon here;
  • Ko-fi here.

And if you've been contemplating a purchase? This would be a very, very good time to do it; I've got to cover all this staggering outlay somehow and get us through what's left of the year. And right now? I have no way to do it.  But there's lots of fabulous new work, so please share all of the links.
