Making mischief early.

After a day of storm and light, brutal cold.

The spirits are already abroad, too, making mischief early. One of them decided to fling me down yesterday (no, I didn't trip, and there was nothing to trip on or stumble over anyway, and my joints didn't sublux, although they're all subluxed now, best believe). Anyway, it ripped the right knee out of my one pair of jeans that fit, and ripped the knee, too. Two very long deep gashes, a couple of holes, plenty of swelling and dislocation, and an unreal amount of pain yesterday, to say nothing of the burns and swelling along the left leg and both arms from skidding along the ground. Traditional medicine and some ice have taken care of most of the swelling, but I'm using a cane and am under orders not to migrate too far from the couch.

Meanwhile, no movement on the income front, and that has to change somehow. We have got to make sales. Normally, Wings would already be in the middle of multiple commissions in the works by now, but nothing's normal anymore. I don't know what to do at this point; I can't conjure money from thin cold air. I posted two new pieces a few nights ago (links here) and another the night after that (links here). The new bracelet in the works may turn out not to be a bracelet at all; we'll see. He has a number of other things in process, too; I'll post them as he completes them.

At any rate, my stress levels are off the charts along with my pain levels now. For those wondering about my own health issues, see here, although now there's a new wrinkle I'm not even going to bother to try to explain (suffice to say there's no affording treatment); with regard to the work being done, some of the details are here. I'm still down $650+ on Patreon for the last two months, apparently as a result of folks not updating their expired credit cards, and I'm on track to lose $300-400+ again this month (i.e., Friday) for the same reasons. I can't keep this up. I also need help to get all this, the plumbing and everything else, done and handled, and I can't do it alone. Folks can help in several ways, and we really need it now:
Please share everything, because I'm suddenly back behind the eight-ball on a whole additional front, and yeah, I'm scared about covering everything and surviving, too. Thanks.
