Yesterday an apocalyptic bushfire was very close to us. My husband was out with several hundred other volunteer firefighters in temperatures of 44C, and I was preparing to evacuate our home. It was a terrifying day. Many people did lose everything.
Australia is currently on fire, and has unprecedented heat. We just had 4 days above 44C here in South Australia. Our Australian government denies climate change and has no plans to deal with this warming climate and fire risk, relying on thousands of volunteer fire fighters who risk their lives.
If I am not present too much for a while, please excuse me! Realities of life can interrupt pleasure sometimes.
best wishes

It is seriously unnerving...❤️
There were so far 87 houses, vineyards, farms, animals...lost in the Adelaide Hills fire and it is still being fought 7 days later. We drove to Canberra for Christmas....through dense smoke all the way through NSW. If I were a Christian I would be worrying about the Apocalypse...but hey, Scomo is waiting for The Rapture so he is not worried.
Best wishes to you and your loved ones, Diana
But there does need to be a national, overarching plan.
