Long-term Prepping

I have been searching the web and looking at different lists for doing weekly shopping to build up a long-term supply of shelf stable foods.

I think I will end up combining several into one that will work for my family.  I will post when I decide on one and then I will start posting what I buy to go with it.

Oh goodness

I had not realized so much time had passed since I last posted.

I will do better, but I will still blame my graduate classes for taking up most of my waking hours that are not at work or doing what HAS to be done around the house.

I promise to give at least weekly updates in the future.

It Came Today.....

It's Official

I have official earned my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education.

Now onto the Masters!

Gardening

Gardening when it is 85 degrees, but feels like 95 at 8:30 in the morning is not fun. LOL

Just means I check it early in the morning or in the evening.  Which is fine, because that is when I check the chickens.

Hoping the heat does not kill anything.  I have gotten 6 yellow squash and 4 cukes so far.  Cooked the squash and cut up the cukes for salad.  Not enough of the cukes to pickle yet.  But if the heat doesn't kill them and I get all that are blooming, then I will be busy soon!

Still waiting for my degree to be "awarded" so that I can start going on interviews.  I am getting frustrated having to wait!  Oh well.... if it is meant to be, it will be.

I'm still here.....

But I am finishing up my Bachelor's degree by taking 5 8-week courses ending next week....so I have not been doing much of anything besides school work.

I hope to be blogging more after July 5th or 7th.  I also hope to get some canning done after those dates also. :-)

Summer

Tomorrow is the first day of summer break.

I have a list of what I want to get accomplished.  I have 4 more weeks left on my bachelor's degree, and hopefully I will get hired on as a teacher next fall.
