It's a long, hot summer —

especially for those living on the edge.

UPDATE: I forgot to tell you how to go about getting the 50%-off discount. When you place your order, you will se a box for a promotional code. Enter move50 to get the discount.

I've got at least three dear online friends in that situation right now, and you'll hear from me about them in turn. Yes, I know; if we could just give them enough money outright to take care of it, we would. In a heartbeat. But as I posted here the other night, we're suddenly in a bit of a bind that way ourselves, so right now, all I can do is let everyone know the situation, and hope that someone else is better placed right now to do what we cannot.

Tonight's friend is Fineena. You may remember that she had a ghastly situation with a landlord recently, and a bunch of us worked to raise enough to get her into a better home, and get her reunited with her four-legged family members.

But it's mid-July, and it's hot, and there's half the month left, and she's down to her last few cents. This is what happens when circumstances force you to move and you have no breathing room, no safety net. She doesn't even have enough to buy supplies to replenish her inventory of yarn so that she can create new fiber art to sell.

She does, however, have a few finished pieces left in stock. My personal favorite is the one in the photo above. And she's making them all available at 50% off, through July 31st. Now, they're priced reasonably to begin with; at half off, they're an absolute steal. And since Wings and I, between us, have a half-dozen of her pieces, we both can attest to their quality and artistry.

So please, go check out her etsy shop. See if there's anything you can't live without. And even if there isn't, please share the link to her site; you never know he will need exactly what she has to offer. And Julia and Sam, her Airedale family members, need kibble.
