Let's talk about emergency prepping. As a woman who values being prepared, I want to share my simple approach to emergency prepping.
Here's what works for me:
1. Think Ahead: Anticipate potential emergencies.
2. Have a General Plan: Establish a basic strategy for various scenarios.
3. Add Items Monthly: Continuously build on your preparedness over time.
Common emergencies to consider include health and safety, fires, tornadoes, sheltering in place, and getting home or bugging out. Fortunately, preparations for one often cover others!
Today, with a level 4 tornado threat looming, I refreshed our backpacks, added snacks, and positioned them for quick access if needed. Over the years, I've expanded our supplies to accommodate various scenarios, from camping situations to evacuations.
Most of the items in our backpacks are extra clothes, essentials, and first aid supplies. Remember, you don't have to be a hardcore prepper; simply having a backpack with emergency items and a plan can make all the difference. ❤️
