Little Sister sorry about DH and garden. Sometimes gardening helps with stress relief but probably not if it’s your honey and he can’t be out there with you. We aren’t getting much gardening done this year either. House is all consuming.
You could send some rain this way. We are only at 50% of the usual amount of snow pack for this time of year so not much water coming down the creeks and rivers. Bad for fish and irrigation farming and just general water supply. Our dug well usually overflows every spring, but not this year. Lots of seasonal creeks just aren’t there this year. And the drought leads to more likelihood of fires.
We bought heavy duty masks last year because we had had enough of the fire and smoke – at one point we couldn’t even see the neighbor’s house 3/8 of a mile across the field the smoke was so thick – definitely not fun. And the fire was miles away. Yuck, don’t even want to think about it, but prepping requires that I focus on possible problem areas and that is a big one this year
Also, it seems like it doesn’t matter if it’s too much or not enough right now, there are huge parts of USA with water trouble. I have a relative working in the Houston area in emergency services. I’m told that the flooding this year is worse than Hurricane Harvey last year.
Might want to think a bit more about stocking up on some basic groceries while they are available at a decent price. All the farm ground either is apparently under water or won’t have water. I just placed an Azure order and wish I had ordered more items. Next month.
