Are you ready for winter?
What I still need to do:
Order a couple things from Lehman's (crank type flashlight, lantern)
Check batteries
Get straw bales for shelter for barn kitties and figure out something for the peacock that moved here
Scrounge up or buy three more cords of wood!
Clean the chimney pipes from the woodburners and check everything - we usually do this in the spring, but life happened
Start saving milk jugs to use to store water for us and critters. No power means no water out here
Starting on first passive solar window heater this weekend - Mother's Heat Grabber - Yay! Wheels on the bottom, handle on the top, easy to move around to store
and I need to get a few more things on the shelves, but not much. Freezer is just about completely full - yay!
Hmmm...vehicle stuff, too. Antifreeze, windshield washer stuff...I have a lot to do!!
