Provident Living...just a note


I've had a couple friends approach me and tell me that they are reading the blog, but they can't keep up. You don't have to!! And I'm not expecting you to! I'm trying to post as fast as I can because I have friends that are not working on a three month supply, or water supply. They want information on long term storage, and recipes on how to use their storage. But I believe that long term storage is for those that already have their water and short term, so that's why I've chosen to post these things first.
Don't get stressed out if you're way back! Believe me, I'm not even personally caught up to where my blog is!!! It's not something that you can rush out and do, nor should you. I'm really putting a lot of time and effort into my personal one because I want it to fit the needs of our family. And I'm working on it together with G and we are finding that we don't have a lot of time to sit down and discuss it. We're trying to use every minute we have, in the car, or at dinner (after the kids have eaten and left), to make the right decisions for our family. The object is to start, keep going, and growing. It doesn't matter how long it takes us to get to the end!
Got it?! I could blog once a week and give you an "assignment", but it would probably only work for one or two of you. Some have less time to spend, others want to get it all done today! Some are just learning about food storage, and others have it all stored and they just need to learn how to use it. It's going to be up to you, to set your goal, and your timeline. I firmly BELIEVE that you do need to set a goal and timeline.
G and I have a timeline for getting our short term storage done, and a goal/timeline for our long term. We sat down and figured out about how much it was going to cost, and what our budget was each month, and then figured out a realistic goal. I urge you to do the same!
I'm going to keep posting, as fast as my schedule will allow, so I can share as much as I can. Just know that I'm way back at the beginning, probably working on the same step as most of you!!!
