Beautiful rain in the dark hours of this morning, and then beautiful fog in the light. No real rain to speak of this afternoon, despite the constant parade of storms, but there is a new dusting [emphasis on "dusting"] on the tundra of the peaks.

Whatever, we'll take it.

I'm exhausted. I slept nine hours straight, save for the dogs waking me up to go out/come in. Today's been about trying to get my bearings again , now that the taxes are turned over. Still not done with them; we're waiting to see how bad the damage is, and we have to go in and sign and pay. But most of it is of my desk, and I could not be more grateful.

But trying to catch up on everything else is why everything's late tonight. Well, that on the pain and fatigue levels that the last several weeks [months] have inflicted on me. Also, still no access to FB, because no time to deal with it, which means still no access to my own group. At least one sale, possibly a second to come, and that puts us still very, very far behind where we need to be, but not as far behind as we were yesterday, so I'm grateful for that. The one thing that came out of the tax nonsense is that I was not losing my mind; last year, we made barely more than 50% of the previous year's sales, which tells you how bad Trump is for business [and for everything else except inflicting harm]. So we've got to get caught up, and we've got to maintain it, because we've got big costs [the door, for one] ahead. To that end, links are here:

• Sales here; 
• Testimonials here; 
• Amazon wishlist here [and to whomever sent a bunch of items off it that have arrived recently, THANK YOU; there were no purchaser inserts with the items, zip, zero, nada];
• 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 get this year onto a better footing than the last two, and so far, it's been pretty grim.
