The last of the color, but there's still lots of it. That's thanks to 70-degree highs lately, and lows that, once again, aren't even getting out of the 40s. It's ridiculous.
It's also supposed to change, at long last, starting Tuesday evening. We'll see. We need some seasonal cold, some repeated hard freezes, and of course, some snow. The clouds are gathering slowly today, but it's enough to make me hope the forecast might be right.
In the meantime, far too many of the metaphorical clouds in this world, including locally. Far too much suffering, and nobody giving a damn. We have both given up entirely n the toxic, poisoned colonial politics of this country, and we're turning our efforts daily toward finding actual, concrete ways to help folks. Y'all can help, too: a GFM for a local family we know [his grandmother and aunt supply the beads y'all love in Wings's work, and despite what it says about Phoenix, he's coming home now] that needs a lot of help, here; and an Amazon wishlist for a group I was invited to join yesterday that does outreach to local houseless folks with pets, gearing up for winter with survival supplies, here. No amount of election nonsense is going to help these folks, but WE CAN, so go give.
And. of course, there's more than enough that I need to get done around here. It starts with sales, of course. And as I also said, I'm also redoing what I highlight here. Wings has SO MUCH NEW WORK that I can't keep up with it all, and I imagine listing it all is a bit overwhelming, so I'm just going to highlight a few items each day. Today's feature is a pair of solid silver earrings, so here are four additional pairs, each unique and each at a lower price point than most of his work, that he's completed in recent months:
- "A Long Rain of Stars," 3"-long dangle earrings here;
- "The Light of Peace," saw-cut peace-sign earrings here;
- "A Circle of Starlight," stamped mini-hoops here;
- And "Insight," more mini-hoops in a subtle design, here.
There's more on the way very soon. And I need to sell them all, because I still need to make sales weekly for us to catch up on the year and cover all the stuff still in the pipeline that needs covering [roof, more medical, etc.]. So: GO BUY! Links are here:
- Sales here;
- Testimonials here;
- Amazon wishlist here (Priority is the liquid soaps and Amazon cards, 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 what's left of 2024 onto a better footing, so please share all of the links.
