Prepared

Day 138-May 17th: With part of our stimulus check, we decided to get some emergency preparedness going on in our house. So....we decided this morning that we should focus on getting our 72-hour kits up to date first. Russell mostly had his except for new food, but I hadn't brought mine from Houston. So off we went to the Emergency Essentials store first, and then to Target and got most everything we needed. There are still a few loose ends though. We got some MRE's, 100-hour candles, flashlights, lightsticks, fire starters, matches, hand and body warmers, bug spray, and a water filter pump. Plus a bunch of other things. Anyway, we are feeling much better about any disaster that might come along. Now we can focus on getting our 3-month supply and then on to a year.

Good for you! It feels good to get that done, doesn't it? Take a look at the "can racks" from Shelf Reliance for your food storage. That might also be a good place to spend some of the stimulus money this year. Their shelves are AMAZING!
