Still too much to get done.

Snow is mostly gone; only traces left now. There's more in permanently-shadowed spots, of course, but even that won't last long now, given the warm-up that's coming. We're already at 60 here, no matter what the official reports say or what the wind chill makes it feel like.

I was feeling infinitesimally better this morning, but not now. Of course, I've also been overdoing it, but 1) shit has to get done, and 2) when a flare is this bad, doing literally anything at all is "overdoing it." I don't have a choice. And now I have a dilemma, because tomorrow is chemo day, and I'm not sure whether I should take it or skip it. Either could prove horribly problematic, and there's no way to tell in advance which is the worst option now.

I'll probably decide at the last possible moment tomorrow.

For what's left of today, there's still too much to get done, and not enough hours, never mind enough energy on my part. I've got to bring in a bunch of sales, and I've got to do it now. Have to shell out $650 cash last week to replace Miika's hay was not in the budget. Our floor for sales and breaking even is making a minimum of one sale per week for the year, and we're almost three weeks in the hole already. I may have those three new bead necklaces fully up tonight; I'll post them on social media, whether the descriptions are done yet or not. But I've got to do something. Links are here:

  • Sales here
  • Testimonials here
  • Amazon wishlist here [priorities are the rugs, to replace those destroyed 2 years ago by the leachfield collapse and ensuing septic disaster; and the LaminaSaver, because apparently Miika's out of it again];
  • Patreon here;
  • Ko-fi here.
And we do still need to make those regular weekly sales, so please share all of the links. We really do need to begin this year on a better footing than the last two.
