Rest in Peace 1980-2020
Yep, I said the "W-word" It's coming, whether we like it or not! I am slowly building up a supply of firewood for the stove and fireplace to warm the house. What are you all doing to prepare for the cold months?
I got tired just reading all that! lol My list is short as I have only the house and as from 2 days ago 2 hens weee) to think about. Next year though...We are doing the same, Sumi.
Same as we do every year.... getting wood, canning food, calking, painting and other general maintenance of the buildings and grounds, bedding down the garden with deeper wood chips, changing out bedding in the dog house, adding more in the chicken coop, changing out nesting materials, laying in dry goods, drawing up fresh water into jugs(winter storms take out our power here very frequently), gearing up for hunting season and the deer harvest and canning it up, gathering in chicken and dog food, foraging for apples to can and use for livestock, deer and pet feed, raking and storing leaves for winter bedding needs and also to put on the garden, culling of the flock and canning them up, fall cleaning and clearing out of storage areas and the home.
The usual.
