Hi, all…I think I mentioned I’ve planted my front yard raised bed using the square foot model. According to Old Farmer’s Almanac, April 2 was a propitious day for planting above ground cool weather crops. Got my fingers crossed. Second raised bed in back yard with more shade is finished and ready for planting, I think next week. I’m so grateful I have a handyman neighbor who helps me, else I couldn’t manage.
Today, I went through my medical emergency bucket and got it better organized. I found a huge rubber band to secure the medical book I bought (recommended by Daisy) to the outside of the bucket after putting it in a waterproof plastic bag. There just wasn’t enough room for it inside the bucket. Anyhow, I have some basic things so that should I ever be required to evacuate, I could quickly put the bucket in my car. There is a rather large plant in our community that serves as a major connecting point for underground gas lines that run from Canada down to the Gulf Coast. I don’t know a lot about what goes on there, but it is conceivable that should there be a malfunction there, we might have to evacuate the area. Who knows… But otherwise, I’m determined to “bug-in” as my best and safest decision.
I’m 80 years old. This quote I found recently, printed it out and put it on the front of my Emergency Preparedness Notebook. Thought some of you might find this meaningful as we each confront our own unique days, my new special Prepper friends:
TODAY
I will look for joy in all things.
I will enjoy what is beautiful.
I will listen. I will learn.
I will believe. Because God has
given me another TODAY.
I will not waste a single moment.
I am thankful. I am blessed.
GOD IS GOOD.
Amen.
nite all and digital hugs…
