Small steps toward being prepared
Ok, you're not going to buy a land roverand a romote cabin on the lake. What are some easy small things you can do to prepare?
1. Think about what you're planning for. ( See the blog entry: "No, really. What are you planning for? ( "Realistic expectations" )
2. Begin to train and plan in small ways for emergencies and disasters.
I call these ten dollar steps.
A. Buy 2 24 packs of generic bottled water. Store it in the back of a closet, garage or basement. Now you're ready for a day or two without water.
B. Buy a basic first aid kit. Read the book that comes along with it
c. Check your some alarms and buy a fire extinguisher
