Saturday, Fire, fire everywhere, new chart!


A view of the Waha outside of Lewiston where people are evacuating.  They are taking all animals to the rodeo grounds and the fair grounds, at least those they can get out.  It is so sad.

Hubs and I were Albertson's and there is a limit on cases of water and on ice.  Limit two per family, due to the fire trucks having to have all they can get to take to the hundreds( yes hundreds of small and large fires burning)  While we were there a woman was arguing loudly with the clerk (in her Louis Vittons) about how it was not fair that the fire fighters could have all they wanted and she was limited to two.  She stormed out of the store, after saying in a loud voice,  "Some of us want to go boating!"  The clerks and I just looked at each other and my reply was.... Priorities.


This is the valley from our house you can't see the hills, but you can still see the river.


Clear skies or what it usually looks like.  When I went over to Lil sis's last night to water her deck furniture which is black iron was grey with ash and ash was falling like rain.  Now wearing a mask again due to air quality. At least I am used to it.


Completed another chart yesterday so that was nice. It was a busy week. I am very grateful.  We bought no groceries and I had Hubs take my car to go babysit as the truck uses so much gas.


Kelsa just loves to beat up on Oliver, he is half her size and very sensitive and she is a pill. Poor Oliver, I am constantly seperating them.  But one of these days Kelsa is going to get a rude awaking.

I am doing nothing today, it is wonderful.  The shop is clean, and I am just playing on the computer.  Hubs would like to fill my day but I won't let him.

And last but not least the chickens are laying!


See the little brown pullet egg!  And when hubs went out a few hours later we had another one!  So we will soon have eggs.  Yippee!

I might just take a nap.

Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.

  1. I do hope you sit tight all day and rest! Eggs from your own chickens are a great thing to have! Yay! If I were in that smoke, my lungs would tighten up in five minutes. Hopefully, your area will have fewer fires soon. Poor Oliver needs some space from Kelsa.

  2. The fires are terrifying. They make me so worried for the future.

    So happy you are able to have a relaxing day today!

  3. That first photo with all the smoke is terrifying. Earlier this year a wildfire got close to our city and the smoke made some evacuations mandatory. Be safe.

  5. Hundreds of fires? How awful! I had no idea that things were that bad already. Prayers for lots of rain.
    Sheesh on that selfish woman who only cares about going boating. What is wrong with people?
    Poor little Oliver.
    Glad you were able to have a day to do what you want.

    1. It is a mess here but hoping that the grass fires will burn out quickly and the forest will be contained.

  8. The fires and the heat are so awful. Yep, her boating adventures should take precedence over fire fighters - NOT! Good grief. Having common sense and decency is PRICELESS. No accounting for stupid people.
    Stay safe and cool.

  9. Oh my gravy! The ego of some people. Wait, don't tell me, she doesn't believe the fires are real? SMH...

    But on the other hand, how cute are the grands. That was my two oldest granddaughters. So precious.

    Stay safe!

  10. Your area sounds like my area here in Northern California. It's something we never get used to, but it happens every summer. Stay safe.

  11. I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
