Who Will Stand With You?

Not a question for tomorrow, but a question you need to ask yourself for today. Who will stand with you? Is that your neighbor, people in your church, or possibly just a few friends?

If you do not have the answer to this one question, I am going to guess that either you think you can do this on your own or you don't think there is really any need to concern yourself with this now. WAKE UP!

Do you have any view of the news and what's happening around you? If you do then you know this is the time, if not past the time you should have this one question answered.

Is there a person or family that you and yours gets along with well? Are they on the same page as you on raising children, religion, and other areas of your life? Maybe it is a group or set of families you want to get together to see how they interact. Now is the time to get a move on it.

If not now, when? Are you like most American's who feel there is nothing to worry about? No country will attack us. True, they would be foolish to do so. What if the attack has been going on for years? What if the attack is not by conventional war methods?

Russia said they would take the United States without firing a single shot? I wonder what they meant by that? Maybe take over from within? Could it be possible? How would we stop it?

Is it too late to stop it if they are already taking over from the inside? Maybe. Do you want to give up and follow some socialist or communist views for you and your children and their children's lives?

I did not think so. How do you find the right persons or person to stand with you when it is time? You start preparing now for the future. Selectively ask some of the people you feel would be the best person/family to stand with you some questions.

What do you think about what is happening in our country? Might be a good lead in, if you are using a stick. But it might not be a bad place to start. You are back in the game and really need to get moving on a plan.

Is it time? Beyond time and the longer you wait for a long term plan, the further behind you get.

Water Is Your Life Blood - Prepare Wisely

I don't think I can talk about this subject enough. If you haven't noticed, this is the third or forth time I have written about Water this year and it may not be the last.

The topic is simple, prepare wisely when it comes to water for your home and water for your escape home, if you have one. If not, maybe it is time to start thinking about one.

Having a supply of water, clean or dirty, could be the difference between surviving or not. When you put your children and others into the formula, that shows who and what you are made of. I actually know a man (well, male) who has his plan of taking off and living on his own and has not prepared for anyone but himself. To me, that is not a man, but more of a mouse.

I have looked at different ways to provide the needed water and have come up with a few solutions:

Solution 1: Purchase Water In Bulk

This is an okay solution for 1 or 2 people at most, but if your family consist of larger numbers of people the cost can really raise.

Solution 2: Install Well

This is a great idea if you are out and away from civilization. I will be doing this soon at the alternative site myself. This is really a no-go solution in the city and suburbs.

Solution 3: Purchase Storage Tanks

While this is a great idea, for long term storage, this might not be a good solution. You can increase the length of time water can sit by adjudication and ensuring that the tank is cleaned and the water that is to be added is the purest possible.

Solution 4: Hybrid: Purchase, Install Well, and Long Term Storage Tanks

Simply put, there is no single alternative that will support a family or group that does not contain portions from each group. I will also add that a great water purification system is number one to this plans success. Both city home and alternative site need to have one installed.

First thing to be done, based on a plan, is to build up 3,7,15, and 30 day plans for water, food, vehicles, education, pets, and medications. How many people and how much water per person. In the plans 3 to 15 day limit water needs for washing clothing. After include it. Don't forget that washing machine waste water can be used on plants as long as you use natural products.

While most people would suggest that you put your filter on once the water reaches the facility of use, I strongly disagree with this train of thought. First off a well is the biggest point of failure of any water system.

At the well is also the point where you can do the most good for long term maintenance. If your water is filtered at this point, the plumbing will have little to damage it from the inside since there is nothing to rub and grind or build up in the pipes.

Please don't get me wrong, you can do it in multiple stages and provide fresh clean water from you well through a water filtration system at the pump, then polish and UV it once it reaches each house location on the property. Location means structure that requires water.

Final Thoughts

In todays troubled times there are those that are spending their life savings on preparing for the worse. And for these people, it is a valid concern. With all the turmoil and strife going on in politics and our national government, it is easy to get caught up in the fray.

Please think before you act. This is a world where there is room for every faction. If it is not right for you where you are, you have a unique option that most of those in the world don't have. You can move. Keep smiling and sing a prayer as you work. Does wonders for you heart.

Top Three "Survival In America" Advertisers

I want to introduce you to what feel can be the most important advertisement you can see online. I know that when I am working outside in the heat of the day, it is such a pain to come inside and find a comfortable place to land this huge body of mine.

 

Think back to the 60's and 70's and what was the most comfortable thing you can remember sitting in. Yes, you know exactly what it is. Visit Sumo Lounge for some amazing bean bag furniture that us big and burly men can just fall into and wake up a few minutes or hours later feeling the pain of the day, cause we too old to be doing all this hard work.

Now a question that is asked more often by advertisers or readers. What is the way I pick advertisers that I do for all of the sites? For some reason Survival in America is the one most asked about. This one is easy to answer.

Weegie Board! Okay, just joking. There are actually eleven possible advertisers for each page. The Premier - Company we believe will benefit the new Survivalist the most. There are 1 Premier, 2 Premium and 8 General, of which all have to bring something to the table. On the Sumo Lounge, I am dead serious that this product belongs as a Premium until someone comes along and knocks it down to General.

In all seriousness, having quality products that are easy to maintain, don't take up a lot of room in a small cabin or what ever type of dwelling you are living out your survival life in. I don't personally want to sit in my roller desk chair for those years. I want comfort to watch my DVD & Blu-ray Collection and mess with the kids or grand-kids.

In years to come when we have come back from extension through our wars with Giant Ants, Rats, Roaches and Space Villains, I want it said, "Man, those guys back in 2013 really knew how to live. See Gramps on that Cool Looking bean bag." A quiet sniffle as a tear wells up.

So become part of my twisted mindset and click on Sumo Lounge and find your perfectly perfect bean bag chair. I have one on order. No David, the blond does not come with the chair.

Here are the advertisers we have now for Survival In America, and they are:

• Premier - Emergency Essentials
• Premium 1 - Stealth Hydroponics
• Premium 2 - Sumo Lounge
• Generals will be bringing these up over the next few weeks.

Loose Lips Sink Readiness

A little off topic, and one that won't sink readiness. We want to welcome "Emergency Essentials" as the Premier Advertiser on Survival In America. They provide great products from books, emergency kits, and general all around survival tools. We hope you will give them a look see as you prepare for any event.

This week we are talking about Loose Lips Sink Readiness. While some of us are very proud of what we are creating in our homes and other locations. The biggest thing we brag about is how our family is going to be able to survive anything that comes.

In an emergency, remember those that you bragged to? They are knocking at your door. They are going to be wanting what you have and will get it one way or the other. Our wonderful suburbia home won't withstand the assault, and neither will you.

While it is good to be prepared and to give talks at the local library on being prepared. What happens when it is you these folks who did not prepare are coming after. I know this is not a popular thing to say, but here it comes.

Shut Up or Put Up. I don't want to sound uncaring or what ever it is you want to think about me for this topic. If you are prepared and talking about it, others are going to be beating a path to your door once things start hitting the fan.

Are you proud of your cabin you built with all the emergency supplies that only you are suppose to know about, except for the 15 builders that were there, the 20 neighbor kids and parents you bragged to, and the delivery persons who unloaded all the supplies at the cabin.

If you are going to build something, find one or two families and work together to build what you 3 will need and build it RIGHT. In an upcoming article I am going to talk to you about finding that perfect place to prepare to.

If your family's survival is of the utmost importance to you. Shut your trap and smile when folks are talking. Tell them to take a look at this nuts site about Survival in America. Maybe that will put them where they need to go.

All joking aside. This is not a game. This is REAL LIFE. You are also playing with real lives, that of your family. Never underestimate the will of survival when you open your mouth to brag to the neighbors next time. Maybe your wife is right, as far as the neighbors know. We don't need a stinking emergency plan except to get home. But make sure your wife and kids understand the importance of keeping this inside of your immediate family. Sorry daughter, not even to your boyfriend.
