The wild birds know.

The first murmuration in a wave of them, all piñon jays. It's not migration per se; just movement. Yesterday and the day before, it was the ravens and crows.

The weather isn't really doing much, but the wild birds know that it should be changing — even if it's not. 

I, on the other hand, am still doing far too much. Wasn't I just saying that everything but sales had to be dropped? Yeah, I thought so.  So much for that. Now, it's raising money for folks losing their SNAP funds on Saturday, cash to be converted to grocery cards. The list keeps growing; the level of need is terrible. We're using our PayPal account as a pass-through, and over the weekend, I'll convert all monies raised into grocery gift cards to hand out [which work for folks on two levels now]. Wanna help?  Donate here.

But still. It's almost 11 PM, and here I am just getting my own work under way.

Again.

I clearly need to fix that, because I need to bring in a hell of lot more sales than we are now. How I do that before January is beyond me, given what this season is like in terms of work, and also given how far behind we are thanks to this disastrous year. There is so much new work, and there will soon be a lot more that's newer still. Trouble is, after this god-awful year, we need to make a sale a day now, on average, and we're nowhere near that.

The last two years have all but killed us financially, and I need to get us caught up to make it through the end of the year. Among that new work is the pair of earrings I posted here the other day, which you can find here; the necklace I posted here yesterday has a whole new bail, and I'm planning to get it up on the site yet tonight. But whatever else, we [which means I] have got to change this trajectory, and fast. To that end, links are here:

• Sales here; 
• Testimonials here; 
• Amazon wishlist here;
• Patreon here;
• Ko-fi here.

And we do still need to make those regular weekly [daily now, really] sales, so please share all of the links. We really do need this to be a better month than what we've had so far this year.
