After reading reviews on the various “tub of food” products offered, I’m sticking with my current plan.

If you have a little room, canned food is just as stable and tastes a lot better. I have been spending a little extra each time I go shopping and after a year it is surprising how much food I have.

IMO, if I were starting right now, I would go at it at a faster pace. Events seem to be progressing at a disturbing rate.

Mindset is vital. You have to be willing to do what needs to be done and do it without hesitation, be that planting a garden or protecting yourself and loved ones.

One can have all the supplies in the world, but without the knowledge and will to make use of these supplies, they are useless.

We're now concentrating on hand tools. We've stocked food, water, weapons, ammo, cloths, medical supplies, oil, gas, hurricane lamps and oil, barb wire, boots, extra eyeglasses, books on survival (edible plants, medial & dental books).

Still, there are holes and there always will be.

You do the best you have with what you have. Mindset, a positive one, is probably the most important. Skills is next. We know how to plant, harvest, and can.

Get in shape or be sure to stay in shape.
