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.

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.

 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.
