Thank you Chookie , I think it’s just easier to have what we would at home , then they get one proper meal . But sometimes, well a lot I run out of energy.

We are now harvesting the wheat . One of DS DF has come to work with them so DH can transport some of the grain and get other jobs done . Our wake up call 7.15 was on this am ! Truck diver to pick up oats in 15 mins , very pleased as there has been breakdowns at the depo so no trucks for ages , between the firers and this . There is no room to squeeze anything in so let’s hope we get a few days of two trucks. Cold mornings have been welcomed. On a rather amazing note, when we had the fire right near us the other day , DF was up a hill watching the lightning strikes ( let me say this is always done by someone to watch out for firers starting by dry lightening strikes ) oh my gosh it apparently was huge and scary fast intense . Mind you there was lightening in every direction at the time . So they saw it hit and the fire . Sometimes it does make you feel better when others tell you their side and you’re not some inwardly overreacting idiot . But this is a micro issue compared to everyone in the state , I’m very aware of this . When you see the aftermath of an intense fire you know everyone is lucky to be alive . Infact I feel guilty for even saying anything about our micro time .

Judy you are on a roll with all that cooking , well done . The apricots were home grown , gifted on from a friend, so I’ll share it with her . I did buy some more apricots, might stew these . As I looked in the cupboard and found last year’s apricot jam !! Oops .

Thank you Chookie , we are good . Although the fire next to us started up this morning and it burnt more than last night . Pushed DH out the door boots and all to go speedy to it . Off Boys went and first on the job again , lots of private units in the end , it burnt so quickly as it was a wheat crop not harvested . The power came on at 1am and I made a tea and put a load of fire clothes on . Boiled water filled the thermos - I was determined we were going to loose power again . I’m very tired today . We had a drive around it all and that helped . Really it’s nothing , so many loss of homes sheep and crops at all the big fires, so sad .
