Corsaire, glad you got your air conditioner in. It has been really hot here. 98 degrees with heat index of 106. Our air conditioner has run almost not stop. We are keeping the ceiling fans running as well. We just put a new air conditioner in back in April.
Checked out the well yesterday and that old pump is still going. Will be looking into a new pump as well as a non electric one.
Garden is not doing well this year. Only thing so far is cucumbers. Tomatoes will be late this year. Daughter and I are going to be heading up to N. Carolina to hit some veggie stands. They used to have a couple of organic places that I am hoping will still be there. I can’t believe I have had nothing to can and I am suppose to be teaching a couple of people how to can. Told them to hang in there. Things will just be late happening.
Been getting ready for hurricane season. Getting all my water containers together to fill up by the weekend. Had to make room to store them. With everything happening now, I am going to start keeping them filled and add to them. I have enough containers with adding the tub for about 200 gals. of water and I know it is not near enough. Looking into a rain catchment system.
I have totally torn out my office and redid everything. This gives me a bit more storage room for my canned meats and things that I hope to be canning within the next month.
I had been going through clothes, books and loads of papers. Got that all sorted and got rid of a lot of stuff. But everything got put on hold for a bit as grandson was here and got a sinus infection which he gave to DH and me. He has gone home now so trying to finish everything up that I started. Have been washing curtains and windows. Wanted to get that done before anything happens as if we loose electric for any amount of time, curtains will not be on the need to get washed list.
Got food ministry tomorrow. So will be back at it when I get back home. My old computer is working better since I cleaned it up. Still have some keys that stick but it is better than it was but then it is a good 8 or 10 years old. Still learning the apple computer. But it is getting there.
Stay safe in this heat wave everyone. It’s going to get even hotter here over the next couple of days with heat index climbing to 110 or maybe 115. Never had it this hot before.
