Everyone Should Have Good Tools


Just wanted to share a list of tools that we all should have in our households. Having the right tools will ensure that we are always prepared for anything that happens around the house. You never know when something might happen. You could fix a lot of things yourself in your home if you have tools to do it. You do not have to call someone in and spend too much money on something that you could have done yourself.

The first type of item to keep in your toolbox are some great measuring tools.
      a Square

      a Measuring Tape

      a Level

Cutting Tools

      Retractable Utility Knife

      Hand Saw

        Hacksaw

         Clamping Mitre Box with Saw

Other Tools

        Hammer

         Locking Pliers

         Pry Bar, this could also come in handy fighting zombies!

         Screwdriver

         Adjustable Wrench

          Hex Key Wrench Set

         Needle Nose Pliers

          Bar Clamp

        Drill/Driver Kit

Plumbing Tools

        Plunger

         Pipe Wrench

          Drain Auger

This is really just a short list, but it is the most used tools around a house. If you start with the basics you could have a great tool room quick.

Plan Your Food Storage

This would be a great thing to start at the beginning of the new year - plan a food storage program for your family! A good idea for someone new at this food storage thing. It will keep you from getting overwhelmed. Having a food storage program doesn't have to be hard or even expensive. Plan! When you carefully plan it out, you will always have what you need.

Purchase your food storage in a orderly way.

Buy things that your family actually eats and uses.

Rotate the food storage to keep it in date. 

Never panic buy!

Plan the food storage into your budget. Even if you have a small budget, you can build up a great food stockpile!

Keep a food inventory list in plain sight, like hanging on the shelf. Mark the items as they are used. This makes it easy to replace. I also find that over a period of time that I see how much my family uses of each item. Then I can buy more of that item whenever I see it on sale!

Starting a food storage program isn't hard.  You can do it and be better for it.

Winter Survival Kit For Your Car

All of us have drove places during winter. This time of year we are all traveling to family and more. In our car a lot. Get yourself prepared for if you ever have to survive in your car during an emergency. You never know what could happen. You could get stuck in a snow storm or worse. Be prepared for anything when you know you are driving anywhere in the winter time away from home. For any length of time. It could safe your families life.

Winter Survival Kit For Car

Have a small shovel
windshield scraper
flashlight with extra batteries
battery powered or hand crank powered radio
water
snack food including energy bars
raisins and mini candy bars
matches and small candles
extra hats, socks, shoes, and mittens
First aid kit with pocket knife
Necessary medications
blankets or sleeping bag
tow chain or rope
road salt, sand, or cat litter for traction
jumper cables
emergency flares or a couple of those reflector triangles
whistle to attract attention
Cell phone adapter to plug into lighter or a hand crank one. like this one - Ambient Weather WR-111B Emergency Solar Hand Crank AM/FM/NOAA Digital Radio, Flashlight, Cell Phone Charger with NOAA Certified Weather Alert & Cables.
 small items of food that could be eaten cold.

 If you must leave the vehicle, write down your name, address, phone number and destination. Place the piece of paper inside the front windshield for someone to see.  

Before you even leave you house , make sure you are prepared for your winter road trip. Make sure you have the items in the list above and have a full tank of gas. Tell the people that you are traveling to what way that you are traveling to get to their house. If you are sitting in your car do not let it run for more than 10 minutes at a time. You risk the chance of the exhaust pipe being clogged with snow or ice. You could easily get carbon monoxide poisoning. 

Just be prepared for any type of winter driving. That way you will get to your destination safe and sound.

Homeschool Minute - Learning Fractions

I am trying to make fractions fun!  I got these fraction magnets and some tiny fraction flash cards. Little Man is basically just matching them up right now. Just trying to get him familiar with them before we really get into them.

List Of Items To Go Into A 72 Hour Kit

Surviving has always been the concern of almost every person who has braved every natural disasters and calamities with the help of a 72 hr emergency kit. It is undeniable that people are no match for what nature can bring upon him. With every hurricane, tornado, flood, earthquake, pandemic, power outage and severe winter storm, people have witnessed how defenseless they can be when nature unleashes its wrath. People don't even have the tool or equipment that can accurately detect every happening of these natural disasters.

Going through all the challenges that you would have to go through, not to mention staying alive, from all the possible natural disasters that might strike you and your family will not be very easy. Being able to do something about the disasters-like stopping it from happening - is always considered a futile attempt that people will not find any victory over them. But this should not give people the reason to just suck it in and succumb into the effects of what Mother Nature has to give.

Even if natural calamities and disasters have already claimed millions of lives and plowed through every place or country it finds in their paths, people have shown the ability to survive. With the help of some determination to continue living and some 72 hour packs for survival, people can have better chances of surviving different disasters of nature.

72 hour emergency survival kits are there for people to easily and quickly grab when disasters like earthquakes and tornadoes would hit them. Having a 72 hour survival kit or what other people would call as bug out bag or grab-and-run packs, contains the essential items for a person to survive in at least 3 days. People, who were able to bring with them their survival kits during emergencies while waiting for the rescue and medical teams, had better chances of surviving the calamities.

There are people who have dismissed the importance of 72 hour survival pack and would not want to go through all the trouble of getting one. They may not be aware that the need may have not come for them to have a use of the kit but it is always better to be prepared than be sorry later. Based on the reactions and experiences that people would have during emergencies like fires, typhoons, and earthquake, people would panic and just grabs almost anything that is readily available and nearby. Most of the time, the things people could grab are not the things they would need to survive.

People who know better prepare for these unexpected disasters with an army survival kit or any survival pack they can buy in stores. Those who find those survival kits on sale not unaffordable would just create or prepare their very own survival kits.

What You Need To Have in A 72 Hr Emergency Kit

If you are not like other people who would buys their survival kits in stores or online, you can make a list of essential things that you must have in your grab-and-run kit. Once you have your pen and paper ready, go and browse through the many sites and articles that you can find online which talks about survival during calamities and disasters. Most of these sites will give you pointers on how you can prepare your own survival kits and what should not be missing in the package.

You can find here some of the very important items that you should have in a 72 hour survival kit.

1. Food is important for survival. You don't have to put in the backpack every food you can think of just so you have plenty. Be smart in choosing the right types of food. It is ideal to have canned foods in your survival kit instead of foods that easily spoil.

2. Water is another basic need that you should not go without. You may choose to bring water purifiers too to be able to use whatever water source you will have during the disaster.

3. Don't forget to put some clothes in your kit. Pick some clothes that are comfortable and can allow you to move freely.

4. Bring a flashlight. Headlamps are actually more recommended since it will allow you to move your hands freely.

5. Have a map and whistle with you. When you are already weak and not able to scream for help, a whistle might come in handy for you.

6. If what you are preparing is an apocalypse survival kit then make sure to bring with you multipurpose tools or knives. You can also include a handy axe just in case the need arises.

There are many types of survival kits that you can prepare yourself to have or just purchase from stores. What matters is you will be safe and have better chance of survival with your 72 hr emergency kit.
