Won't be enough.

Yes, there's a change coming in the weather. No, it won't be enough. Not when our highs are hitting the mid-forties at a time when they should be no more than twenty at the most. 

Yes, there's hope. But it's very small and threadbare now. I suspect we won't see much more of winter now; things are already blooming that should not be, and of course the catkins have been open on the aspens since at least the week before Christmas.

If so, it likely means hat the end-of-year models were right, and this will be a year of ever-deepening drought, and that's a terrible prospect to contemplate.

And I don't really even have time to think about all of that, because the regular seasonal stresses are already ramping up in a big way now. There's all the usual January stuff to worry about. This and June (or July, depending on how the bills fall in a given year) are always our worst two months in terms of expenses, and I don't know how this one's going to shake out yet. I've also got so much to do in terms of ordinary day-to-day work, plus new work by Wings to get posted up on the site, and of course, I need to try to sell it, too.

Because we will still (always) need to make sales, and there are plenty of gift-giving events coming up in this new year. But if you're looking for places to donate to folks who need it, watch this space and my other online spaces, because I'll be highlighting them in the weeks to come. Much of the country has just been through a deadly storm, and there's an even more deadly pandemic still raging, utterly unchecked; lots of folks in our various communities are going to need long-term help.

Speaking of sales, I'll have four new works to show you here this evening, I hope. It all depends on whether I can get them up in the relevant gallery, descriptions written and entries complete. They're all fabulous, and they all need homes.

All of our links are here; emphasis on sales and testimonials for now (and subscriptions, if you're looking for that; I'll have more on that to come in the next few weeks, hopefully with some changes):

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

There's lots of fabulous work on the site, with three new cuffs coming possibly as early as later today, so please share all of the links.
