Illness update

Not getting any better. Went to the ER yesterday early AM. They loaded me up with drugs and my headache went away but when I got back down to the oasis and started hauling water in the 100° weather I got quickly sick again. Dr says it's not a spider bite, most likely a bug that's going around. Headed to Dr now. Oasis is having to go unwatered. No way can I do it.

I hope you get better. Posted over on one of your neighbour's blog which is the young gal anf her husband who are homesteading near you there. Wish I could be there to sort a few things out and make it more effeient for you, but I'm way over in Svenskland.

Maybe you hubby can water them. Or is that a No no ?

I procrastinated about going to the Dr. Trying to eat breakfast and see if that helps. I'm feeling a slight bit better. As for hubby, he refuses to do anything at the oasis, especially haul water. If it doesn't rain tonight then I guess I'm not meant to have an oasis. One can only do what one can do. Nothing is forever.

Wish I could transfer some of this areas rain over there. It rains constantly at times, but then if you've seen the last couple of my posts on Swedish forests, you'll realize why it's so green.

Incredibly however, if it doesn't rain for a month, things turn brown rather quickly, even some trees dying. The climate does nothing to encourage plants to go very deep into the Earth for water, so shallow roots are often the norm.

Hopefully this is a good monsoonal season for you.
