I’m having a difficult time falling asleep as well. Actually what I should say is that I fell asleep earlier and woke up a short while ago. Will start yawning soon and I’ll be ready to go back to bed, hopefully.

so cute that little kitten. I should get up, for some reason I've insisted on staying in bed this whole time. I know they say not to do that. Sorry, you are having trouble sleeping too, glad you got some hours in though.

Hello good shed people,

Much discussion tonight with family and a neighbor. It seems our place in nature is threatened by nature itself. No rain. No more dam (damn) water. Fruit trees are shriveling up. Vegetable garden is non existent. Last to remain is the Rosemary?

Pumped my last drop to the header tank today. (Header tank is the house supply. Lasts about 10 days).

To complicate matters there are serious fires burning particularly to our south. Swift dry winds are fanning the fires and people are evacuating our way fearing they have lost all. Smoke all around.

As in previous posts to this and other shed Ops my 'true love' and I clear the land around our house and cottage several times yearly utilizing burning off. (Much like the aboriginal owners of the lands).

Tonight we discussed our evacuation plans if this flamin thing comes towards us or another fire breaks out nearby. For the first time since living here (6 years only) I have no water to combat a fire. The ground is crispy. Grass dies with each foot step. The Eucalyptus are dropping leaves and small branches. September? Supposed to be spring. 30 degrees Celsius days. (About 86 F) Hot frustrating winds. Very dry. You don't sweat. Been a long time since my exposed skin is sunburning this time of year.

Last year we had a fire very near but I had water then. No water left so I guess if this fire comes our way in the next couple of days we are out. The discussion about getting out also revolved around our animals. We have 2 x 4 x 4 utes and 2 cars between us. Dogs and cats will be placed into the utes. People in the cars. Making up cages for the cats. Can't have them losing the plot with a sudden forced move, so they need to be contained. Between us and our neighbors we have 7 dogs and 6 cats. We love them all so they will be coming with the vehicles. Sorry for the chooks and geese. Set free, they will be on their own.

Confidentially, to my ATS mates, I can't leave my home. I have 2 fire pumps, hoses and a singular plan that I will enable. I've worked all my life for this place and won't desert it. Looked after me and my family so I will do all that I'm capable of to protect it.

I have a personal plan for one only which can't support the rest and I wouldn't risk them. I'm sure I will be alright.

Anyways, thought I'd share this. Shed is a good place to share. For those that know my location I say this. The weather reports are from 40 klms away. The fire reports cannot be updated quick enough. Just look what happened in Queensland. This monster is moving.

Won't sleep again tonight. The wind roars over the hills as I type.

As always, my kindest regards,

Bally

The typical fire alert to our south from which people are leaving.



Current Situation -

The fire is burning to the north of Ebor, on multiple fronts.

The fire is burning quickly towards the east, and is impacting on Armidale Road in the area of Tyringham and Dundarrabin.

The fire is also burning in the Muldiva State Forest, and burning towards Bostobrick.

Homes and properties in the area are under threat.

Advice

If you are in the area of Tyringham, Dundarrabin or Bostobrick, seek shelter as the fire front approaches. It is too late to leave.

Protect yourself from the heat of the fire. If you are caught in the path of the fire, you may die or be injured.

If you are caught in the path of the fire, you may die or be injured.

If you live in the area but are away from your home, it may not be safe to return to your property.

Other Information

"An evacuation centre is open at Dorrigo Showground at 4180 Waterfall Way, Dorrigo.
Smoke from this fire may be affecting the areas of Dorrigo and Coffs Harbour.
If your life is at risk, call Triple Zero (000) immediately.
Continue to stay up to date with the bush fire situation by checking www.rfs.nsw.gov.au..., listening to your local radio station or by calling the NSW RFS Bush Fire Information Line on 1800 679 737.
For information on road closures, check livetraffic.rta.nsw.gov.au.... Roads may be closed without warning.
The next update on this fire will be issued by 07/09/2019 19:30 or if the situation changes."

While this fire is certainly to our south it is disconcerting. No water and gusting winds our way.

Kind regards,

Bally

Good Morning Folks


Heard about " The Shed " over in the Q-thread, lol, Don'tTreadOnMe suggested I check it after she removed an off topic post of mine
I thought she was teasing me, but turns out she had a pretty good sense of my personality to suggest such a lovely place to visit. If it's cool with NightStar and you all, would be fun to come hang out from time to time.

Have always loved Fairies and Good Magical creatures
especially Flower Fairies, horticulture, design and anything " crafty " is kinda my thing. Love Kids, Animals, laughing with friends while enjoying good food and cocktails ( in moderation usually ) and I cook ! The " Red Pill " journey, while I know necessary, has been tough on my generally easy going nature !

Here's a little fruit and wine I offer to contribute to this weekends festivities at " The Shed " Enjoy the Day All...
