As far as preps go...I'm not even down to my preps yet (except the tang). I haven't been to a real grocery store in 2.5 months...only a convenience store for a loaf of bread or mustard. And I still have about 20 rolls of TP before I go into my prep stash for TP...So I'm sitting much better than you might think.

Edit...I did use a pound of white beans & a can of spam from my stash...once they were done I dumped in a can of bushes baked beans & let simmer for another hour. But that isn't even a dent in my stash.

MC, I worry about your preps - I don't think you are prepped for any length of time - I've said this before and feel no differently despite your "reassurances". Hope you are the only person here with so little, and that you will rethink your position, put on your PPE, and go shop for what you can.

A side note - a friend in Oklahoma said on Friday that a week ago their area Walmart was chock-full, well stocked, and a week later was nearly empty. Be aware of such things - get what you can while you can. If you see a store well supplied with everything do not assume that is the new normal and no rush to purchase anything. Circumstances change daily and I think this riotous weekend will have made major changes, again.

Recently I filled what seemed like the last box I could find room for, and was impressed that I had enough food put away. However, I had already ordered some things which have continued coming in, which will necessitate one final box, goodness knows where.

There are categories to acquire and prep in addition to water and food, which are our first requirements. If you believe you have enough food put away, it's time to look into everything else, such as vitamins and other supplements, hygiene products, tools, books, medical supplies, warm clothing and blankets, auxiliary locks, longer screws in hinges of outside doors to prevent them being kicked in, and anything else you feel led to acquire or think you should in general.

Of course in this season growing is the major effort - grow everything and anything you can, and prepare to can, dehydrate, put up by any means you have available or can acquire or even borrow. Prepare to be growing as much as you can in winter, as well, indoors. Please look into the Kratky method, which I have mentioned before. This could save our lives and at the very least our nutritional status.

This is a hard Sunday morning, looking at the damage created through the night. Let's take it seriously and look to our own futures in light of all that is going on in this world today. Stay safe and well!
