 I am going to the workbench, because the workbench pretty much always helps.

Also I am discussing with myself whether or not to pull the Beads of the Month leftovers with thulite from the Etsy shop. We shall see. I have an inspiration. Hmm.

It's been a challenging year... or two... or four. Something like that. And that only makes the perennial December struggle for balance more so.

I need to get a lot of (already finished) work into the Etsy shop.
I need to spend as much time as I can at the workbench because workbench helps everything including my ability to handle the chronic pain and similar things.

Today I will try to get a few more pieces into the shop. Before things changed, I had a reasonable hope of having between 200 and 300 things in the shop at the beginning of December. Now I'm in the middle 90s. Argh.

I hope people like them and buy them. That would be particularly handy right now. And I'll continue to spend a bunch of time at the workbench, doing various needful things but especially the ones that keep me going and give me the wherewithal emotionally to continue.

Wish me luck, please?

And now I need to have breakfast, because I forgot to, and then I need to get that new dragon pendant into the shop and then get myself up to the workbench.
