    Picked up some more medium term essentials from the Dollar Tree while in the big city next door.

    Boxed milk (1 year use by date), canned clams, canned chicken, canned diced ham. Also, picked up some plastic foldable water bottles (17.5 fluid oz) for GHB and BOB and YEP only cost a dollar. The screw cap is the perfect fit for the little sawyer filter adapter. It is FDA approved and BPA free.

    We also picked up 6 dozen farm eggs from our local source.

    I did a day trip to set up my tent in the woods to try it out along with fielding some gear.

    Been misting the grow bed for the last 3 days. Got some Mustard Green, Romaine and Spinach sprouting. Still keeping an eye out for the herbs to start sprouting. Focused fully on paying bills to eliminate debt.

    Funny you mentioned debt. We have been working on a plan to get out of debt. Unfortunate thing, it's not gonna be as fast as I had hoped. It'll still be a great thing.

    I agree BP... sounds easy, but is a daunting task! and seemingly, never ending!
    $4$ it continues...
    Give a man fire, and he'll be warm for a day!
    Light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!

    Cat's are food... not friends!

    If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.

    Ive birthed a few too many squibs so I got an RCBS powder checker die and tried it out tonight.. Damn thing is awesome! I know its not skill or gear related, but it is related to SUPPLIES.

    I hope to start reloading some 223 soon, but I need a 223 launcher first!! Trying to sell a gun to put a lower together.

    IMO, reloading consitstanly good rounds is prep related.

    I also picked up some plastic boxes for rounds, wipe rags for cleaning bores with. Best find was a Hornady die set for .38, .357, .357 Mag. Got it for under $40. Don't have a gun yet, but my dad does. Won't mind making him some good loads for his.

    This may go under gardening but DH has gotten 5 of the 6 garden beds cleared out and planted.With the situation with Son1 , we've been growing an awesome crop of weeds the past two years.

    Pulled up the last of my onions, about 50lbs. Planted the last of my plants that have been waiting out the monsoon season, and pulled a bunch of weeds.

    Correction, 70 lbs of onions today. Also 5lbs blackberries this weekend from one plant.
    Common sense is so rare these days, it should be re-classified as a super power.
