Emergency Preparedness

Well, I have this rushes where I like to go on kicks for stuff. Like cleaning the house, or getting SUPER religious instead of just regular religious. Or food stoarge, or other cool stuff that I don't work on at a regular basis. 

Anyways, I recently got caught up in a Conspiracy thing that got my blood pressure up and while I was at it, it sparked my urge to have my family ready for anything that could come our way.
So, tied in to my wanting to get Family Home Evening (FHE) back on schedule, I plan on doing something fun for the next one that we do.

72 HOUR KITS!

Okay, so here is what I'm doing.
there are 4 people in my family and one car. I know that the car isn't a person, but having one in the car is always smart. That means I'm putting together 5 kits.
Each one will consist of the following:
  • A 5 gallon bucket (Possibly 3 gallon, who knows)
  • Water for three days.
  • Non-perishable staple food for three days. This will proably consist of 9 dried meals. Not quite sure how I'm gonna pull that one off, but I will!
  • Snacks for said time period.
  • A simple first aid kit.
  • A flashlight.
  • A change of clothes.

Anyways, there will be a kit for each person and a big kit for the family. This will have things like this:
  • Consecrated oil.
  • Matches.
  • Tinder for a fire.
  • Utensils.
  • Toilet Paper (Everyone ALWAYS forgets that one, but not me, cause I'm smart).
  • Spare batteries.
  • Oil for the hurricane lamps.
  • Oh, and a Hurricane lamp!
  • And probably some other odds and ends.
Anyways, this is my plan. Also, I'm working on my food storage. It's a bit of a pain in the butt, however, the prophet said to do it, and last time I checked, he was smarter than I am.
So, I'm doing it!

Anyways, I'll report on how that one turns out later.
