A nice touch.

Winter holiday flowers, but they smell like summer. Given how bitterly cold it is, it's a nice touch. Gift from mah honey yesterday, to cheer me up at the end of what has been a spectacularly awful week on seemingly every front. [Yeah, FedEx, who can shove it, and. Venmo, who needs to cough up our money, among other things.]

And a pulled grascilis  and hamstring courtesy of the dogs deciding to get into a fight yesterday. It happens once a year, year and a half or so, and it's usually over a bone, and yesterday was no exception, but Sunny and Cricket were at it hammer and tongs, with Stormy just agitating to pack up, and I took off running. I'm not strong enough anymore to wade in directly to bust them up like I used to (when you've done rescue of badly abused dogs as long as I have, you get used to that), so I had to make myself as big and as loud and as invasive as possible to break through their focus and get them apart. And only after it was over did I notice how badly I damaged the back of right leg in the process, so here we are.

Yeah, they're all fine today, back to being sibs.

They'll be fine. It's the financial issues that are keeping me awake at night. I'm still trying to keep all the balls in the air right now, because if they come crashing down, everything shatters. And I've still got to get us out of this month and this year in one piece, and I can't do that unless our sales rate increases dramatically and immediately (except, you know, it's a week to Christmas and we're out of time, so apparently this year is going to end with us in a very big hole). Nothing else matters (to the outside world where these things have to be paid, and so I have to behave accordingly).
