Survival Tips
Survival Tips for YOUR Family's Survival
I know it's sometimes overwhelming to go to work, raise a family, care for a home and all your possessions, make sure everyone is happy and healthy, AND on top of it all, prepare for any crisis that may come up in the future.
We plan for vacations. We plan our education and careers. We plan our daily meals. But adding survival planning on top of all that — including food storage, a place to put it, what to store and how much, and all the details it takes to make it happen — well, it can be just too much to think about!
Survival Tip #1 - Write out a general plan.
Start here.
But a crisis rarely announces ahead of time that it's going to "rain on your parade."
I try to provide information on this web site and in the Family Survival Planning Alert that will be helpful to all of us (including me) who are working toward self-sufficiency - two year's worth, three month's worth, or even just a week's worth of food and supplies in case of an emergency. I hope you will find each issue helpful and interesting . . . and that you find the information you need on this site.
Survival Tip #2 - Inventory your current supplies. Start here.
Because all this survival planning is written for you, I would love it if you would share your survival tips, ideas, suggestions, thoughts, and questions on how your survival planning is coming along.
- What questions do you have?
- What do you need more help on?
- What suggestions do you have that would make it easier for all of us to acquire the necessary food storage and supplies?
I am looking forward to writing articles based on your suggestions, and when you comment on any of the topics that others have suggested (and I hope you do!) your experiences, suggestions, and advice may be published in the newsletter as well as on this site.
