I was thinking of doing something spectacular to celebrate the fact that one year ago today I wrote the first post on this blog. But I really can’t think of anything, so I’m just writing a post–my 157th post. I am amazed that I’ve had this much to say and still don’t feel like I’ve […]
Emergency Kit Giveaway
Here’s a quick heads up about a giveaway my friend Lisa at The Survival Mom has going on this week. She’s just redesigned her site and is celebrating with a giveaway for an emergency kit that retails for over $100! Now you know how I feel about emergency kits off the shelf–they’re rarely all inclusive, […]
14 Day No Shopping Challenge Results
Well, we’ve hit the end of our 14 days without going to the store and I learned a few things from the experience that I’ll share, but I really suggest you try it for yourself and see what you learn as each of us has a little different situation, family size, taste preferences, preparedness level, […]
Preparedness Challenges
I’ve been participating in a challenge from Preparedness Pro‘s blog to not hit the store for anything for 2 weeks during the month of August. We’re almost done with it, and I thought I should have given you all a heads up about it before it started so you could join in, but alas, the […]
Independence Day
I’m obviously slacking in my blogging lately. I have a number of posts planned, just no time still. My sweet sister is coming out from Baton Rouge tomorrow for the weekend–we’ll probably hit the little parade in the neighboring town, take home a sackful of candy, and go fishing. For Independence Day this year, why […]

Girls Camp is part of our church‘s program for teenage girls, and each ward (congregation) is encouraged to hold girls camp once a year. There are camp manuals with various camping/outdoor skills the girls need to learn and pass off each […]

Here’s another quick heads up–MD Creekmore over at the Survivalist Blog has rounded up a boatload of fantastic free preparedness downloads on his site. Print off the ones you are interested in and put them in a binder. Build up your library for the cost of paper and ink! :) Keep preparing!

No Catch Up Post Yet, But . . .
Crazy busy here, but I’m tossing up a quick post with a link to one great survivalist site. Amazing amount of information on it and if you have more time than I do, you can spend some over at MD Creekmore’s site. :) “Recommended site: The Survivalist Blog – Live better, live Cheaper and survive […]
Happy News!
Well, I said Thursday that I had some exciting news I’d share with you all “tomorrow”. Well, what “tomorrow” actually means is sometime in the future, just like “lasterday” means sometime in the past. So since I missed the real tomorrow, and don’t have a ton of time today (like none), I’ll just keep this […]
