Survival
Brothers and Sisters,

I do not want to scare anyone with what I am saying here, but hard times
are coming to all of us soon. So I am urging all of you to start preparing
for these times now. I already have been preparing.

We are experiencing devastating weather, tornado's, floods, fires, etc.
These things will continue to happen and happen in places that have not
experienced these things in the past. As we have seen from Katrina, our
government is not competent enough and capable of helping us, so we
must help ourselves. In so doing, we need to buy a few extra things to be
stored away for this purpose. Things like canned foods, including meat,
milk; drinking water; medicines and first aid supplies, bandages, alcohol,
etc.; a small fire extinguisher; flashlights and batteries; battery operated
AM/FM radios and extra batteries; candles and matches; blankets and
bedding; tent; long sleeved shirts and bluejeans; extra socks and good
walking shoes and boots; clothing for all weather conditions; sunglasses;
hats; insect repellent; sun screen and anything else that you think you
will need. Do not forget a can opener. Paper cups,
Paper plates and plastic eating utensils makes things easier. These
things should be stored in a high but cool area in case of a flood. If you
are in an area where a flood is doubtful, then in the basement in case of
a tornado. I have my stuff stored in metal foot lockers in my basement.
You can buy large plastic storage containers with lids for this purpose.

You need not go out and buy all this stuff at one time, but you can pick
up a few items at a time. I have stored enough to last my family for a
month. But I did that so that I had plenty to be able to help another family
member, a friend or neighbor. Normally I would suggest storing enough
to last your family for a week or two. But the idea is to be prepared for
just about anything. Be sure that you rotate these items about every
couple of months or so to keep them fresh. Try to use only canned foods
and milk. Boxed and packaged items can collect moisture and ruin. Put
clothing, etc. in plastic bags or containers to keep them dry and fresh.

You know your area, store supplies for your needs for your area and
weather type. You are not planning for a war, you are planning for a
natural disaster. Store items needed for that purpose. You will not need
guns, hand grenades and bazookas. But you can buy a couple hand
held games or a board game to help pass the time until you get an all
clear. Baby wipes work great for a quick wash up and will help cool you in
hot weather.
