l can't believe its the Year 2012 - HAPPY NEW YEAR
lt doesn't seem very long ago, that it was the year 2000..
The millennium year, when the world was predicted to be in big trouble
According to the so called experts, the computer world would crash.
Computers control every thing, our water supply, our electricity, air control, fuel
Can you imagine what life would be like without power ?
Back to candles, no delivery's,- the world would come to a standstill without essential services
THEY EVEN RAN DOCUMENTARIES ON T.V., THAT WERE VERY SCARY.
l know l panicked, as did a million other people.
l almost filled a room with canned food, especially fruit, sugar,tea, and coffee. During the year l had made dozens of bottles of jam ( as we had been given plenty of warning )
That year l also realized l could actually grow vegetables. (as suggested, for a good bartering system, like they did in the olden days )
l have enough candles to last a lifetime, we eventually ran out of tin fruit, and l have kept my vegetable going .But l don't barter, l give it away !
What did l buy before New Years Eve this year?
Some 1/2 price Christmas lights, and these little lights for $2 each.
The batteries cost nearly as much as the lights, -- aren't they pretty ?
