Something on the way.

Last day of September. Also San G, but it's a pandemic, so we're not there. Also, my feet wouldn't handle it right now anyway.

No clouds whatsoever that way this morning; that's what that stretch of sky looks like now. The wind has risen in the last half-hour, too. There's something on the way, but whether that translates to rain remains to be seen. 

This business with the dislocations in my right hand is really old. It's been going on for months, but last night hit a new low, and it's the same today. I'm doing everything with my left hand, which is not my dominant one, which means that 1) I'm really, really slow, 2) I'm really, really clumsy, and 3) I'm screwing up everything. And I don't have that kind of time right now.

In addition to the inability to type properly, I also just don't have enough hours in the day to push sales the way it needs to be done. We have been blessed with a couple of sales now, and some breathing room that we haven't had in a long while. But he will still need to stock up on supplies (silver, stones, etc.) for building that holiday inventory. We have a whole winter to get through, too, which lasts much, much longer than that, and we'll need firewood. Wings has already abandoned any notion of getting the dental work that he so badly needs to have done properly; I canceled last week's medical appointment for myself; and we're focused solely on the sales, on making it ourselves, and on helping other folks to make it if and when we can. 

We have to make up a LOT of ground financially over the next three+ months. A LOT. And I cannot maintain the pace or workload I have in years past; hell, I can barely walk, and I have to limit my typing time now, too [constant dislocations in my dominant hand]. That means that we need help with shares, and with testimonials, too. If you have some of Wings's work and are willing to have a testimonial published on the site, send it to me via the Contact form (we will list you however you wish, by name, name and initial, initials only, some other way that doesn't identify you; you can see an example n our newest, here). All the links are listed below, so please share:

• Sales here; 
• Testimonials here; 
• Amazon wishlist here (apparently the sponges are unavailable, but the other two things I need that I can't get here are the Bar Keeper's Friend coffeemaker cleaner and descaler; we're entirely out of both [or Amazon cards, and I can order them myself]); 
• Patreon here;
• Ko-fi here.

There's lots of fabulous work on the site, and the five new pairs of concha earrings went up the other day, here (one is sold, but the other four remain available). The way this year has gone, things will still be grim for a good while, so please share all of the links.
