I prepped for y2k. I mean, I PREPPED! I even had a wood burning stove/range with a water well! I was sooooo ready! And then - - nothing. Absolutely nothing. I was so disappointed! Now - - no, I just don't want to do it again. Yeah, I'll pick up some extra canned goods and get the pantry stocked and even date stuff so I know what to use first. But I just can't do all that again! And I don't want to do that all again. *sigh* I'm too old and tired to do it all again!!!

Oh quit whining and start stockpiling toilet paper. Maybe a generator. Plenty of ammo, of course. Better get some sheets you can tear into bandages while you're at it. If Hillary gets elected, it's going to get ugly.
What am I saying??? OF COURSE she'll get elected. The fix is already in.

Stuff doesn't equal prepared. It never will. Prepared starts and ends in the mind. Without that, nothing else really matters.

What's the matter with you? Snap out of it! Pull them bra straps back in place, raise dem Capris up and keep 'em there with a belt. Wipe the spaghetti sauce off your face. Comb those rat nests out your head. Find you a bottle and take a few swigs. Now don't you feel a little better?

That was great.

On a more serious note, it appears you're still prepping albeit on a smaller scale. Keep up the great work!

Except for getting fresh vegetables when I couldn't grow them, we did not need to go grocery shopping for over year for anything! It was absolutely amazing. However, what I want to do with the next phase of my life is sell our property, get a camper/trailer, and just drive around for 4-5 years. I want to be a gypsy. I want to be homeless, kinda-sorta. I just want to drag it around behind me! That's what I'm prepping for and what I'm praying for. First stop - - Kay's driveway with our extension cord plugged in to her garage!

i must admit.there are times that i wonder to why i prep,to i dont feel like it.then i get a friendly reminder of some kind,to why i do prep.take food for example.i know very well,that i can go to my closet/kitchen,or the laundryroom for food.as i sit here and type this..we haven't run out of certain foods for some time.simply because i prepared not to...we had a 3 day outage last year.because of it.i know that i have the needed light when i need it.and a way to recharge the rechargeable batteries,when i need to..

I tried to cut way back on my prepping, couldn't do it, almost like it's in my DNA. I see everything as a resource, repurpose. I'm fairly confident after you take a break you get back to it. Sometimes you need to step back for clarity.
