O.k., everyone.... Got a lot done over the past 2-3 weeks. Getting a
whole new furnace and getting our systems back to breathing healthy, all
of us are doing better. I'm hoping to get the blog running within the
next 2 weeks. Thanks for being patient, while we are trying to heal
here.
Hope all of you were working on your small stockpiles. Good rule of thumb, is to have 2 or more months of food, water
and toiletries on hand, in your household. If you have a big Family,
make sure you have enough to provide for all of them. You never know
what can happen, from job loss to natural disaster.... Better be safe
then sorry. The government recommends 2-3 days of stockpile, but if you
need to get by for an extended period of time, make sure you have more.
First recommendation is: Clean WATER. Your body can last long without
food, but you need liquid to survive. You can have anything from water
bottles to the Gallon size jugs you buy at the local supermarket. I pick
the latter, the plastic is food grade and will keep the water clean for
years and will not seep the harmful chemicals that aren't good for your
body. Used pop & juice containers, are good too. The water will
last for a good amount of time. If you plan on using the water that sat
for a couple of years, make sure you put 6-8 drops of bleach in there
and wait a period of 3 or more hours before use.
Happy Couponing and See you all soon, CHERYL:)
