Are you Prepared?

Hey just a little idea to get you a little more prepared. No panicking here but just making a few little changes to keep you and your family safe in an emergency. I posted about water before but took another class that was very informative. So here are a couple of tips. You don't have to rotate water that is stored properly the first time. WHAT! I did not know that but this is something I learned. Just do it and forget about it. This simple idea could save your life and make things easier in an emergency too. Start buying your soda in liter bottles and when its gone rinse really well. You can even use a little bleach to make sure it it is really clean. The idea is to store very clean water to start and then forget about it. The next idea is to simply put water in your empty laundry detergent and Clorox bottles. Don't even worry about rinsing out the soap. Just label them for cleaning only. Just fill them up with water and store them everywhere under beds, in the garage, deep cupboards etc. Every time I empty a bottle I immediately fill it with water and every time a little voice in my head says "Way to go" you are on a roll. It feels so good to do the right thing and be prepared. Now I know none of us have enough room in our houses to store a whole year supply of water but store as much as you possibly can. Find a way to make extra room and then start thinking about getting some kind of water filtration system. So that you can clean any water you find in an emergency, but I'll go more into that another time. Its also a good idea for every household to do this. Don't expect that your mom's house will have everything you need. What if you can't get to mom's? Just a thought. This is counsel from our prophet not just a good idea. So get busy and do this one. It really is a no brainer.

Oh and just think of all the plastic we will be keeping out of the landfills. We are going green too.
