The Survivalist Post #4 | What I Did This Week & Updates


This past week has been very different for me since I am in the process of going off of my newest medicine since it is not working well with my body. Because of that I was in bed four of the past seven days so therefore I didn't get much done on any level and all my prewritten posts ran out...thus the reason this post is being published in the late AM's.


At one point last week I did go to the store with Autry so I picked up a gallon of Distilled White Vinegar and two more boxes of Baking Soda to have on hand. In the first post of this series I bought four boxes...two were stored in double ziploc baggies and put in my BOB, one was used to make homemade shampoo and the rest of that box and the fourth box were left in storage. Now I have a total of 3 full boxes of baking soda.

LAST WEEK:
In case you missed it, last week I shared 5 Easy Things You Can Do To Prepare For Winter months. You should definitely head over and check that out. Also, I finally got the 60+ General Things For Your BOB post written and published. If you haven't looked over any lists yet, check that one out post out too.

Latest results on the petitions: As I wrote about in post #2 of this series, I have been keeping an eye on the petitions that are up for states to secede the union. As of last week only 5 had reached the goal of 25,000 signatures or more. Others were close, but haven't reached goal yet. I am now going to give you the update from this past weeks' numbers: Because the petitions have to reach the goal of 25,000+ by December 9, 10, 11, 12, or 13, I went ahead and added that next to each petition as I updated the numbers from this week. If you've considered signing a petition, but haven't yet...your time is running out! South Carolina's petition is about to go over! It is sitting at 24,655 signatures right now. Other than that there was not a huge jump in numbers. Several other petitions are close, but they still have 4-5 thousand more signatures needed.

    1. Thank you Kelly! I'm hoping that once I get this medication down to one pill a day for a few weeks I might do better. If not the dr will just take me off of it and we'll try something different.

      Yay! :) I had fun putting together that post lol.
