Can you remember your first joint?

Everyone laughed when Bill Clinton answered yes, but said he didn’t inhale…….yeah right…….

I remember,  and I won’t lie about it………..it was with a cousin of mine……homegrown stuff….right out of the Blueridge Mountains……punched a few holes in a coke can because he was out of papers……yep….we got fried……..

That was my first time………..

 

A found coin is indeed a good thing………..

I have a special jar in my car now that is for coins that I find lying on roads, sidewalks…..etc…..

 

Have you done anything constructive this weekend?

Posted in Survivalist with tags on November 15, 2009 by Brad

My constructive day is today, Sunday…..although at the moment I am taking a little break to type here and tell you I am being constructive….just not at the moment ;-)

I am clenaing and straightening the house…..wiping down, mopping floors….etc..

I also picked up out front and will do out back before I’m done…..

I bundled up a couple dozen empty gallon jugs I have accumulated and hung them in my water storage area as back ups that I can fill if need be…..

I checked my list I have attached to the top of my BOB…nothing stood out as needing attention, date wise and such……so it is good to go….

I have been focused lately on washing out and saving all glass jars I use (jelly, coffee, etc)…..I have so many now that I had to designate a storage area in the kitchen for them…….I have been steadily filling them with rice, beans, leftover meat broths that I reuse and expanding my sprout growing in some……….

Not today, but I need to locate the materials to build me a clothesline……I have plenty of ropes…..I’ll hit freecycle for poles…….

I’ve neglected the firepit lately…..I still need to find a steel cooking grate…….

Well….better get back to work!

My new minivan now has chromed letters in our favorite acronym!! For those that may not understand……these letters stand for “The End Of The World As We Know It”

Sharing food………..

A few weeks ago a friend from one of my local Yahoo Groups stopped by and offered me a box of canned goods……I took what I wanted athen passed it on using freecycle to someone…….

Today I saw an offer for pantry and freezer items posted and I responded and was chosen……I again kept what I wanted and then repoted it and now as I am typing this I am waiting for another person to come pick up the items………

Times are tight all over and getting tighter…….we can all help eachother!

Ever heard of functional decorating?

Posted in Survivalist with tags , , , , , on October 31, 2009 by Brad

Observe 2 items I have used for decoration in my kitchen…….the torches are new and quite functional, I have oil on hand and in a pinch they can come off the wall and be put to work…..the wicker picnic basket sits on top of my icebox and is filled with MRE’s………

Watched a good movie with the kiddies last night………

We kicked back in the livingroom and watched a movie called “The Invisible”….very good, we really enjoyed it…….Check out the You Tube trailer below this post………..

I brought them each a goody bag home from work since we had a Fall Festival and they gave away alot of junk food and candy….that worked out great because 1. it was free and 2. again it was FREE!
