Preparations

 

Some of my seed order arrived & I was like a kid on Christmas morning! Same day I got my “Grit” magazine so it was even betteršŸ¤£ 

I’m finally feeling like my old self again and wanting to get back into the things that really define me. It’s been a long time. I’m trying to stay positive and focus on things other than the political circus we have going on! Not gonna lie, it’s a struggle!

I will make no promises about posting about that stuff. This is my space to speak freely about what’s on my heart and mind. My apologies if any one finds it offensive. I never mean to offend, but I am one that speaks my mind. 

But, back to seeds! I have 1000’s of seeds. Some are getting really old and my fear is that they may not germinate well. No one that gardens to feed themselves or their family wants to start seeds only to find they don’t germinate in time. So, I replaced a few that was getting older. I also replaced some of my herbs. I love my herbs! I make salves & tinctures from many of them, I cook with them as well. A good herb bed is a must have. 

I’m once again taking some online courses for herbal medicine. Never know when that knowledge will be useful. 

We live in very uncertain times, that is the one thing that is absolutely certain…lol..we all need to take care and be prepared for big things as well as small things. Bad weather, power outages, illness, civil unrest, unemployment etc. having knowledge about things could mean the difference in life or death. So, we try to be as well rounded as possible.

We are in for a very rocky next few years. Prepare yourself! Plant a garden, learn to can, freeze what you grow. If you have land, invest in farm animals to produce meat. Will any of these things help? Who really knows…the powers that be could come take it all, but I’m damn sure gonna do what I can! 

Busy day ahead, so I’m going to close for now!

Until next time…

Take care, be vigilant, stay watchful…
