Still in the Great North Woods. Still working, though I reduced my hours when I got on Social Security. (Yay for getting back a miniscule amount of what I paid in during my lifetime!)
I am now in a gorgeous apartment in town, within easy walking distance of my bank, the library, etc. I have two terrific roommates (a 23 year old goofy computer loving, D & D playing, foodie guy and a 25 year old quiet, sweet, computer loving, D & D playing trans-woman.) We work together and the rent is manageable with all three of us pitching in equally.
Food storage? Still doing it. World wide, things seem to be spiraling faster and faster. Honestly it seems like we are circling the drain and most people are ignoring it.
Too many people are still denying that climate change is a thing. Too many people are denying that the threat of nuclear Armageddon is a thing. Too many people are denying that the civil unrest, political strife, a new pandemic possibility, more wars, and on and on are looming over our country and our world.
Just look around.
Lots of love to old friends in Asheville, NC. I used to live there. I do wonder if my old place flooded (I lived on Starnes Avenue).
Lots of love to friends in Florida. Been there more than a few times.
I've seen the pics and videos...it doesn't look good down south right now...
Stay safe, regardless of where you live, be prepared for anything.
