Innis is coming together.

Osaka got me Innis's wig, when she placed a Mint on Card order earlier this week or end of last. I am thankful, and Innis seems well pleased.

Today I carefully picked out the ribbon and bead fastenings that I'd put on his robes initially, and replaced them with ties. Much less bulk and I like how it fits this way. I now feel satisfied enough to try this with the brocades, now that I have PROPERLY finished the test fit. I will keep these cotton robes too, for meetups and other stuff where I don't want to risk ruining really nice outfits.

Anyway, now that Innis is ALL together, I just need to get his white loafers, but those will keep, and give him a fresh faceup now that I know what he needs to look like.




He almost looks pleased in the second photo. :)

Job interview, and met my financial goal!

Wow today has been an incredibly emotional day. I had a job interview this morning, and conditional on the results of my background check, I have a seasonal job with Target on the Sales Floor. They said it may take up to a week to hear back from their company, but once they have heard back they will call me either way. It's slightly more than minimum wage, and it's only until January unless a more permanent position opens up by then, but it's WORK, so I have accepted the proposal, and hopefully I will be able to start in a week or two.

In addition to that, I was able to get in to see Dr C about some pending paperwork (but not for medical treatment yet) and get some things sorted there, since his office is right next to the Target I applied to. This Target is within easy walking distance, and so I am able to give them complete schedule flexibility without having to rely on the bus. Additionally if I NEED to, I can take the bus there, as it is on the bus route. I may do that on snow days.

So after that I headed to Walmart to pick up the expensive prescription, and while I was waiting for Osaka to meet me there (Pherret actually sent some money without prompting, like a responsible father!), my phone jingled. It was an alert from my email, that I had received a contribution which has caused me to meet my needed goal. I am no longer panicked about having spent the money I'd gathered on that prescription, and as soon this amount clears I can go back to Dr C and see if I have pneumonia, and if I do treat it. The person also messaged me and I nearly had a heart attack because while I thought they might be able to help a bit, I wasn't expecting them to be able to help by actually completely meeting my goal.

I am INCREDIBLY thankful for everyone who has helped, whether by donation of funds, or signal boosting. Thank you all so much. I have my medicine, and in a few days I will have the other (if I need more). I am incredibly blessed, and incredibly thankful. If EVER I can do anything to assist please do ask. I will do whatever is in my power to help my friends and family.

I could use some help. I hate to ask, but I have to.

I was going to start a GoFundMe to collect money for medical bills and prescription costs since I still haven't been able to find work, but all said they take about 8% in fees, which is a bit high if you ask me.

I have no problem with paying a fee for a service, but I'd rather it be directly to paypal or something else, where I know the fees up front.

I need about $400 to catch up on medical bills and pay for due prescriptions, and I have less than half of that to work with. The unemployment that I get until it runs dry, barely pays my phone bill and storage bill, with very little left to contribute to household finances.

So, I am asking, if anyone can help, or is willing to signal boost, to help me raise enough to pay an overdue medical bill and also pay for necessary medicine for this month. Asthma medication is expensive, Testosterone is expensive, and at this point it would be far worse for my health (physical and mental) to let either one go.

I also can't go see the doctor to confirm or eliminate Pneumonia until I can pay the overdue medical bill.

So, if anyone can donate even just a little bit, I would truly appreciate the help.

Paypal would be rorekgwolfe (AT) gmail (DOT) com.

Leave a comment, share this post, whatever you can do to help, I would be truly thankful. I am leaving this public if you want to link back to me.

I think I have pneumonia again.

So in remarkably unsurprising news I'm pretty sure I have pneumonia again. I've had some bleeding in my sinuses for weeks, and swelling, stuff I was attributing to allergies or the change of seasons. However a few days ago my throat had gotten raw and I was draining non-stop so I started taking some cold medicine. And now I'm off that and it's moved into my chest, just like that.

My chest hurts almost as much as it did when I started hacking up bloody chunks last time, and I have a hollow cough. I've also had confirmed pneumonia (not counting this time) four times now, which makes me more prone.

I have not slept overnight, and in a few more hours I will be walking up to my doctor's office to get checked out. I'm anxious because money is tight and I don't have any income or health insurance right now, but I know you don't mess around with pneumonia either.

I have no idea how much this is going to cost. :/ But I can't let it alone.

Ello

So, I've joined a social site called Ello which prides itself on privacy, NOT FARMING your information, and generally good behavior, and expects that of its users.

I have a few invites if that is something you might be interested in. You ARE NOT required to use your legal name (something that bothers me a great deal about Facebook, since everywhere else on the net I'm Rorek or Rorekgwolfe), and while the format is a bit new for me, it's simple and if you know the screen name of the person you are looking for, you can find them by searching it.

If you would like an invite (or are already there) please ask, or leave your name in the comments so I can find you.

Thanks! I am @Rorek.
