Almost Self-Reliant
So ya'll all know that my yard is still green (not for long) and that I have about 365 days of growing due to my location.
Well, its just about to freezing temp now and it will get below freezing within the next few hours. I already have ice hanging from the trees and some on the stairs where I need to walk. I have my firelogs downstairs, mostly and I need to bring up some. I'm afraid to hurt myself for obvious, numerous reasons. This might sound stupid, BUT....if I scatter salt on my stairs, will it help me out? I would need to go about 3 more times and get whatever I can upstairs. Plus if anyone happens to come over, I don't need them getting hurt either.
Mostly I'm fine, because I have power, gas and I've put a bit of water aside and did all my clothes and dishes, before turning off the water (I don't need busted lines) and draining the lines. I just need to keep warm and stay safe.
Hoping someone further north reads this soon (I know....ya'll all furthur north than me).
