Wings's newest.

As promised, Wings's newest. It matches a cuff already in inventory, here, and there is a belt buckle coming, possibly as early as this evening.  

Coils, too, but I'm not sure when. Probably too late for Xmas shipping, but there's nothing I can do about that now.

Frankly, given the terrible sales year this has been, with all our income going to absolutely astronomical unavoidable expenses?  I need to bring in five figures' worth of sales between now and year's end. And yeah, I know. It's not going to happen. And we're not going to make it. So I'm frankly just . . . not pushing anymore. The pain woke me up around 2 AM, feeling literally as though someone had taken a hammer to every single joint system in my body, and while I'm working anyway, it's not going well. So I'm giving up on that for the time being.

And yes, I know we're lucky. The housing crisis worsens daily here. On that note, in reference to the deliveries above? Also go here, buy something, or several somethings, off the outreach group's wishlist, and you will literally be saving a life, probably more than one. It's not really possible to overstate how bad it is out there, nor how great the need is. I've sorted it in their Priority order, but there are new priorities as of what they've given out today. This is from the organizer herself:
  • The bulk backpacks - at least six 12 packs
  • Hand Warmers
  • Space Blankets
  • Pepper spray
  • Money/Document belts (look like tan fanny packs, worn under the clothing  to hide and keep documents safe and protected.
  • 2 person tents
  • Tarps
The outreach program is giving gear out as fast as they get them, and being mostly housebound now, it's hard for me to get out to pick up any before they're gone. That's why I put some of those essentials on our own wishlist, with a note that they're for the outreach effort; soon, I'll adjust those priorities accordingly, too. 

For us? THERE'S SO MUCH NEW WORK ON THE SITE. And I need to sell them all, because I still need to make a ridiculous amount of sales to cover all the stuff still in the pipeline that needs covering [laptop, roof next year AND now the well pressure pump, more medical, always prepaid taxes, etc.]. So: GO BUY! PLEASE. [Yeah, I know; I don't know why I bother, either. Hope is a stupid, stubborn, fucked-up thing sometimes.] 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 far worse than the last, we really need to end 2024 on a better footing before 2025 and taxes take every cent, so please share all of the links.
