Monday.

Yellow flowers everywhere, and it's all ragwort. Which would be why I'm sniffling and sneezing and coughing constantly, why my eyes itch constantly and I'm using my inhaler at record rates. 

Yesterday, that field was green with some gold. Now it's gold with . . . well, not really even "some" green, just a little visible. That's what last night's massive rains wrought.

Monday, and it's been a Monday, and despite the rain, I'm terrified of not bringing in any of the other kind this week. We're up against it now; I have until the first week of September to bring in several thousand in sales and have it clear. That's it. So basically this week; no more.

It's bad enough having all this life-destroying expense hanging over me, and no sales to offset any of it. It's worse when I can't even get my brain to function enough to chase sales in the first place because the pain is so bad. For the moment, we've abandoned all hope of the roof repair and anything else that needs doing, because we can't do anything until this is covered. 

So things are bad. It's been terrible for a year now. And right now, I need to bring in sales every single day to have a hope in hell of getting the IRS off our backs by the September due date. One week to do this, and I'm getting nowhere.

I HAVE GOT TO BRING IN SALES NOW, NO MATTER WHAT.  I NEED HELP.  TODAY.

There is a ton of new work on the site from just the last couple of weeks [with three or four new cuffs in the works currently, one of which I hope to have up yet tonight, a necklace, and at least one belt buckle that I also hope to have up tonight, three new pairs of gemstone-bead earrings yet tonight, and some collectible items coming soon]: 

  • Three new cuffs, two set with incredible turquoise focals, one solid silver; go herehere, and here.
  • Six pairs of new concha floral earrings in the Earrings Gallery here [larger are garnet, golden rutilated quartz, and malachite; smaller are amber, carnelian, and iolite];
  • Art Deco Labradorite cuff here 
  • triangle wire youth bangle here
  • Art Nouveau vine pattern-wire youth bangle here
  • small Art Nouveau pattern-wire bangle pair here
  • malachite butterfly/leaf-wing earrings here
  • a big solid silver classic cuff here
  • ten new pairs of the gemstone-bead earrings are also up in the Earrings Gallery;
  • and another new cuff is also here

There's more on the way very soon. And I need to sell them all, because I still need to make sales at a rate of at least two per week for the rest of the year for us to catch up [and that's just breaking even; I'm already behind on that, which means I need to make FOUR sales this week just to catch up]. So: GO BUY! PLEASE! Links are here:

  • Sales here
  • Testimonials here
  • Amazon wishlist here (Amazon cards are probably most useful at this point); 
  • Patreon here;
  • Ko-fi here.

After such a grim year, this one already far worse than the last, we really need to get 2024 onto a better footing, so please share all of the links.
