Some of the things I've learned/noticed/realized since I got the Preparedness Bug a couple of months ago:
Ordinary chlorine bleach is very useful stuff.
72 hours' food and water for a single person (and a cat) is actually quite easy to do.
72 hours is a bare minimum.
Large trash bags are also very useful.
It's amazingly easy to roll duct tape around a business card to make a flat pack.
Commercial First Aid Kits all seem to lack critical basic components.
I believe I could walk home from work with the bag and water that's in my car. I could even spend a night outdoors on the way home. But what if I can't go home? What's in the car is all I'm going to have.
And what about when I go farther from home than that?
Preparedness is indeed a Journey. Every stage I achieve seems to open up another one.
Some people think even a small, 1-1/4" Swiss Army Knife is a deadly weapon, and carrying one makes you a potential mass murderer.
Opinionated, outspoken, and once in a while funny!
