Just a Few Preps Every Time I Shop, Here's What I Prepped Today. What Did YOU Prep Today?
Today's video is just a few things I prepped today. No matter your budget, you can do a little every day to prep, whether it's adding to your physical preps each shopping trip, learning something new, gardening or canning. The important thing is to do a little every day to ensure your family is always provided for. See you in SHTF, my Preparedness Family and Community.
Today I found a tiny 'tree of hell" Ailanthus altissima. This tree is invasive in SW PA, and should NOT be planted, and eradicated wherever it's found.

I was confusing it with Sumac. Years ago, I confused Sumac with Walnut. I made this video to increase awareness not only of Ailanthus altissima, but to encourage people to become aware of invasive species in their area.
I learned at age 50 from a 30 something.... We need to keep learning, and never assume we 'KNOW".
Sorry for walking and recording and talking to myself... I thought the video was paused.....

I can get these seed starting trays for this price by buying a 100 pack case of each component separately from Greenhouse Megastore or Hummert International but that is more than twice what I need. I'd also have to pay shipping at Hummert. This single kit at the GM costs $15, the same retail price at WM, although they're on clearance for under $5. If you spend $35 online at WM, shipping is free. I ordered 20 tray kits, then after discussing it with my husband, we decided to get 20 more. Also, for easier storage, I took the kits apart and sorted them into their separate components like they would've been shipped from one of the Greenhouse Supply Stores.

Well, YT family, this is not a prepping video at all. You know by now I like estate sales and local online auctions. I got these photos and the ship along with a weather gauge, a desk, a bench, and 2 chairs in one lot. I figure since I still not allowed to return to my job, I'd try my hand at selling on eBay. I wanted to show these military pics to our community. I thought some of you might think they're as cool as I think they are.

This is batch 192 in the Harvest Right Freeze Dryer. We baked a ham, and had some left over mashed potatoes and gravy. I love how cute the potatoes and gravy look! See you in SHTF, my Preparedness Family and Community,

We had to get original birth certificates. There was a 2 hour wait, so we went to a local Pittsburgh restaurant, Sharp Edge Bistro on Penn. This was just as the madness was starting. See you in SHTF, my Preparedness Family and Community,

So, this happened. I store laundry detergent on a wire rack. One of the bottles was over the edge. The weight of the bottle allowed the bottle to crease, then crack. This resulted in almost a full gallon of laundry detergent leaking onto the carpet. Learn from my mistake. Don't place plastic where it's not fully on the shelf, don't put liquids where they can do damage if they leak onto objects below, and maybe place items inside a bin where liquids will be caught is they do leak. Of course, if you place them into a bin to catch leaks, you wouldn't want to put anything else in the bin that could be damaged by the leaked liquid.
