Not a damn thing to show for it.

Lots of heavy clouds every day; we'll have more today. And not a damn thing to show for it except fields burning up in the heat. Oh, and there's the smoke and the dust and the wind, of course. Plenty of those. But all the rain in those clouds keeps passing us by.

I can't work fast enough to get everything done that I need to do. We have to try to get stuff in the ground mostly this weekend. We also  have to keep at everything else, but it's getting more difficult (and more costly) by the day. My Patreon is also already down $50 this month and I've had a very kind heads-up letting me know that it will be going down a few hundred more, permanently, beginning next month. So I need to bring in enough to cover that, plus the hay, and the taxes, and my medical costs, and and and and. And I am so very tired all the time; that's what lupus does, on top of the crippling pain. Some sales this week and next would go a long way on all of that; as I said the other day, hope is a stubborn thing. A stupid one, too, but here we are. Also, I posted the new cuff yesterday, and it's fabulous; you can see it here.

Links are here:

  • Sales here
  • Testimonials here
  • Amazon wishlist here (priorities are first and foremost, the other ladder, the Thermacell lanterns [the flies are already out, so the mosquitoes won't be far behind], and the liquid soaps, which we can't get locally but prevent our hands from cracking and bleeding given that we're forced to wash them fifty times a day);
  • Patreon here;
  • Ko-fi here.

We're still hoping to put aside enough for a new well when the ground thaws enough to drill in the spring, too, Nah, we've given up on the well. No one's available to drill before the latter half of summer, and the tax burden means we would never be able to afford it anyway. But it's perhaps even more of a good time to make a purchase, because Uncle Sam is a vindictive colonizer, and my current stress levels about paying it all are off the charts. And there's lots of fabulous work, so please share all of the links.
