Perfect Rechargeable Tactical Flashlight

Having a good flashlight is a must and I think that I found a great one, Tactical LED Flashlight! This flashlight is drop resistant to up to 30 feet and is rechargeable! It comes with its own battery and charger. I love that about this flashlight. Keeps it always ready and not have to worry about running out of batteries. It is a VERY bright high power light that has 1000 lumens LED lightbulb. It is the perfect size to keep in your pocket at all times or can even be mounted on a rifle. It has different lighting modes, high, medium, low, zoom, strobe, and SOS. This flashlight would make a great gift for anyone that is a camper, hiker, hunter, fisher, or a prepper who wants to light up their way when the power goes out. This is a must-have flashlight for all of its great qualities. Heavy duty and rechargeable makes this my number one item of the year!!

Fish Antibiotics

If you're new to the whole concept of Fish Antibiotics, there are a few basics you need to know. These are not antibiotics made from fish. Neither are they tiny pills you must cram down your guppy's throat. In general they are pills or capsules of the same size and strength humans use.

Although you cannot buy human or even dog antibiotics in the U.S. without a legal prescription, a federal loophole allows these same antibiotics to be sold over-the-counter for aquarium use. (Most physicians and pharmacists are unaware of this exemption.) Many of these so-called fish antibiotics are the same quality and dosage as human antibiotics (USP grade, AB-rated generics). Those who purchase these products are implicitly agreeing to use these antibiotics for aquarium purposes only.

Over the past year several fish antibiotic retailers have disappeared, probably having caught the eye of the FDA. Again, by law these antibiotics are sold only for aquarium use, to keep your pet fish healthy and happy, though it is clear from certain websites that they are being sold for human consumption. It is currently illegal to sell these medications to treat human infections, although the enforcement of that intention may be difficult to regulate.

Are you taking your life into your own hands if you come down with a sore throat and decide to treat yourself with your guppy-cillin? Probably not, regarding the purity of the medication, if it is a USP grade AB-rated generic... but maybe so, if you are allergic to penicillin and but presumed amoxicillin would be safe.

The problems with antibiotic use are manifold: perhaps more often than not, antibiotics are used for infections they cannot cure, for conditions that are not even infections, for the wrong infections, and for self-limiting disease that requires no antibiotics. Overuse leads to antibiotic resistance and to increasing difficulty treating serious infection. Millions of people suffer antibiotic reactions each year, some of which are fatal. Would you take penicillin for gonorrhea if you knew it might actually make the condition worse?

Just because penicillin, cephalexin, doxycycline, ciprofloxacin, and several other antibiotics can be purchased for aquarium use does not mean people should be treating themselves. Infectious disease doctors spend a lifetime studying the best and safest ways to treat infection. Additionally, it is an ethical question whether you should honor the promise inherent in the purchase.

On the other hand, if you knew without a doubt that TEOTWAWKI was just around the corner, you might feel it your moral obligation to do all you can now to protect your family in the future. Would it be immoral to withhold aquatic sulfamethoxazole from your daughter with a kidney infection if there's no doctor to be found? Having Fish Antibiotics on hand, just in case disaster strikes, is not unreasonable. After all, doctors do prescribe them for pampered patients whose dream vacation may be threatened by traveler's diarrhea. The end of the world as we know it may be a bit more serious. No one knows the day or the hour, but is it imprudent to be unprepared?

I always advise readers to discuss potential medical needs with their personal physician. However if this does not yield what one requires to feel safe and prepared, I know many people turn to fish antibiotics for potential use in emergency situations where medical care is unavailable.
As of 2015 I've noticed a few changes. The window of opportunity to acquire certain strong antibiotics may be closed. After searching several web sites I no longer find the ready availability of amoxicillin-clavulanate, levofloxacin, azithromycin, clarithromycin, or cefdinir, and several web sites simply are no more. I expect they didn't follow the letter of the law.

Penicillin, amoxicillin, ampicillin, cephalexin, sulfamethoxazole, ciprofloxacin, metronidazole, and doxycycline continue to be available. Ketoconazole is an anti-fungal, not an antibiotic, and should be avoided due to occasionally irreversible liver damage.

Again I stress that no one should be using any of these without professional medical advice. But knowing that people will do what they must when threatened with life-endangering illness and nowhere to turn, I've addressed correct antibiotic use in great detail in my book, Armageddon Medicine, information I hope you'll never actually need.

I have been seeing so much online about using fish antibiotics and wanted to share this article that I found.

Homeschooling Doesn't Have To Break The Bank

Classroom Freebies

We have homeschooled all of our kids and have found out that it does not have to cost a lot to do it.
Thrift stores and yard sales are my best friend. You can find all kinds of textbooks and tools for using in homeschooling.
 Most of my worksheets I get free off of the internet. There are a ton of websites online where you can get free homschooling worksheets to print off and there are free online cirriculum to use, The one that we use a lot of is the Easy Peasy All-in-One Homeschool. It is easy to use and has everything. You have to check out Pinterest also. It can take days to go thru all of the free homeschool items on there!
We also use the library a lot and find out what is going on each month in and around our town. Last month was busy with Halloween stuff to do around our town and it did not cost a dime. It is also easy to turn anything that you do into a learning experience. Like going to the grocery store teaches reading, math, budgeting, health, and more. Go to the park and learn about nature, science, weather, and more.
You just have to keep an open mind about how much it should really cost to homeschool. I know some people who go all out and spend thousands a year, but you don't need to do that. Just hunt around and search online and you can find tons of free homescooling stuff. Fun stuff also.

Cookbooks!

I collect cookbooks! I look for them every time I  go to yard sales or thrift stores! I currently have 7 boxes full! They are packed for moving soon. Another place that lately has had some great cookbooks is the Dollar Tree! The one pictured below was last one that I got. All cookbooks are good to have on hand and most of the recipes can easily be adapted to freeze dried foods and other stocks. Gives your family some variety.

Cooking With A Propane Heater

This has probably got to be the coolest thing that I have seen and wish that I had thought of it. I found this photo on a group in Facebook. I have gotten those metal trays like that at dollar store and used them for camping, but never thought that I could use them with my Mr Buddy Propane Heater
