I am somewhat prepared for calamity and working on better preparations (Be Prepared - words to live by as it turns out).
My progeny are well launched and at least knowledgeable about bad things that can happen (even if not well prepared). Working against the current forces of gov't, I work to be as self sufficient as possible and am always learning new skilz.
My hat is off to you..... Ditto here.
It’s hard to see the forest when you are inside, but from the outside, things are pretty clear.
The most important thing is.. No Fear... As it clouds the mind.
