hat tip to Judy and Spunky for today’s topic.

Sorry I didn’t prepare anything more formal or researched. This is kind of an extension of the last topic. Which I don’t think we can say enough about.

I don’t do a lot of prepping but I do have a month or two of canned meats, chicken broth, tomatoe sauce, beans, and some pasta.

What I need to know is how do I make sure tap water will be good to drink if kept for several months. I have saved the gallon jugs my distilled water for my C-Pap machine thinking I can now put tap water in them.

Is it wrong to kinda want the world to end so I can justify eating my stash of high-carb foods? Alone? By candlelight? ;)

JUST KIDDING! JUST KIDDING! I do miss carbs, though. :(

I’m currently reading ‘Crimson Phoenix’ by John Gilstrap and it is freaking me the heck OUT!

End of World Nuclear strikes came in from all angles; millions dead world-wide and a handful of scrappy Preppers (led by a WOMAN, of course!) are starting ‘civilization’ all over again. And despite her best efforts, it’s not going all that well!

The one FLAW in the Author’s premise? He saved Congress! All of them! Ugh! They’re all holed up in a FANCY HOTEL in the Virginia outskirts with food, water, showers, toilets, communications, big screen TVs, computers...you name it! Each was ‘escorted’ there by the US Military...in Limos!

BUT - the Congress Critters ARE starting to eat one another alive anyway, with all of the ‘creature comforts’ still provided, so there’s that. *SMIRK*

LEADERSHIP will be the key for any of us to survive. Don’t look to Congress for THAT!
