Yeah for the first time since being in college I am nearly 17k in credit card debt and need a second job on top of having to pull from my 401k to pay property taxes by end of this month.
At least I didn't get the clot shot or the booster cancer enhancer. Keep my mind on the grateful side. Where focus goes, energy flows.
Same here! Everyday I'm thankful that my wife and I were awake enough to see thru this clot shot psyop! We have 4 children. 2 are married. Early on - even before the shots were reality we "preached" the message "Don't get the shots". NONE of us did. So much to be thankful for.
I feel it being a single mom of a teen that eats all the time and wants things that other kids have. Bills, the economy, being alone, and stress I feel like I’m barely afloat most days. The struggle is real and so is my super high high blood pressure
This is harvest season and everyone should be putting food in storage. So far we have frozen 240 ears of corn. That alone is 53 meals worth. Today I am freezing a lug of blue berries. I will also be canning 2 bushel of peaches next week. Should get about 40 quarts. This is all just a start. Soon I'll can green beans, tomatoes and apple sauce. We also have potatoes, cabbage, cukes, brussel sprouts and egg plant in the garden. We already have two freezers of dairy and meat. And several months of paper products like TP.
If we face an ESG or the mark, I'm hoping society regains it's brain before we have to consider it.
Take this for what it's worth but I've heard a couple "prophetic" words from a few different people basically saying we're in the time of Joseph with 2023/24 being the start of 7 years of plenty followed by 7 years of famine. I know I'm doing what I can to store my grain for the coming season of lack while we are in/approaching the season of plenty.
My raised 40 by 40 garden is rotting. We have had so much rain most everything looks like it does after the first frost. The tomatoes are a complete loss. I got a couple dozen before the plants died and will get a few more that are still viable and ripening. Cukes not far behind. Squash flowered with no fruit. Peppers are ok. Onions look dismal but salvageable.
Out in the 2 acre field things look better with better drainage. Its mostly potatoes, sweet potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower and corn. Corn got hit by big hail storm but has since recovered. I planted a second crop a month ago and it is going gangbusters.
But I really will miss the tomatoes and cukes. The wife cans salsa, stewed, whole and diced, chili sauce, paste, spaghetti sauce, dill and bread and butter pickles. She will have to buy them at the farmers market this year.
I think next spring I will pull a few yards of topsoil out and put a layer of pea stone and sand to help with drainage. But my next thought is this is a 100 year summer with all the rain weve had. Never happened in my 58 years til now.
I'm sorry to hear that! I just don't know how people live with out a good veggy garden. Bread and butter pickles are a favorite!
We've had a lot of rain but many of my beds are raised. Few years back my son got me some 4 ft dia x 10 ft long metal drain pipes that he cut in 1/2. He welded the ends shut (allowing drainage) and used cement blocks as a frame to mount them. I put a river of pea stone in the bottom, completely filled them with leaves, branches, straw and yard waste and topped them with over a foot with good garden soil (the weight compresses the afore mentioned compost). I have added additional manure and worms over the years.
It has done wonders for my back. Of course some plants needs space like corn and taters need room but the rest do well climbing on hog panels that form arches between each set of two.

I'm sorry to hear that, friend. Let's hope digging out of this mess won't kill us.

Well, let’s see if you can avoid the mark of the beast to hug or sell… coming soon to a scamdemic near you.

Us too! We have health issues and age so it takes us twice as long to do 1/2 as much but we are still peddling. 😉

Where do you live, I might be over for dinner. Kek.
Yes. Street address would be nice.
Unfortunately a red state stolen by blue. Hoping we don't get caught in the cross fire.
