Wings this morning, tacking the roof of the dog run back down after last night's rotational winds tried to rip it off. We were lucky; beyond that, a downed ladder, and a bunch of dead tree limbs ripped from the weeping willows, we didn't lose much to it, and we got an all-night light show again of lightning from behind the peaks after it moved out (albeit only a few drops of rain here). But today's winds are ferocious, too, and this is just one more example of all the many, many additional tasks, large and small, that our collapsing climate is visiting upon us.
A few minutes ago, I had to step outside to make sure that the sound I heard wasn't anything to worry about (it wasn't; just noise). But that was all it took for the allergic reaction to start: sneezing, sniffling, itchy eyes, the works. These winds are too late in the season, but so is the pollen, and they're working together to turn summer into spring, which is far and away the worst season here for everything.
Like we're not already far enough behind on everything. Add to that the pressures of the health and medical nonsense, and the outrageous cost of this week on multiple fronts, and I need to be able to spend a lot more time on chasing than sales than I've been able to do for months now. We're okay for the moment, but that's predicated on the assumption of consistent sales for the second half of this year; if we don't make them, then no, we're not okay now, because I have to make everything stretch a lot further than it can. There's a lot of new work on the site already, and Wings has more silverwork and gemstone bead items in rotation, too. All the links are listed below, so please share:
- Sales here;
- Testimonials here;
- Amazon wishlist here (current priority still the Zero-Odor sprays, because these days we're back to wet dogs again; and the liquid soaps, which we can't get locally);
- Patreon here;
- Ko-fi here.
There's lots of fabulous work on the site, so please share all of the links.
