Hi frens. I’m not being a scaremonger. Please. We have been advised by Q that we will enter ‘10 days of darkness’. We have no idea when that will be but if you have not started to prepare, do it as soon as possible. This guy has some good advice and just one tip may help you get thru this. If you have any tips on what you are doing to prepare, please share.

I have a question about keeping water. How long can you keep self-filled jugs before the water gets gross or dangerous? Is there some way to seal them so they keep for longer? Is there a better way?
You can also "catch" water by buying a new trash can and a small tarp or plastic. Hang the plastic/or tarp from a clothesline or some sort of "T" your husband can easily build and stick in ground. Let the plastic hang down in a slope and place trash can under it. This insures clean water and NOT the water coming from your gutter down spout. You can use this for drinking/cooking if you boil it first.
You could save water from your downspouts for flushing the toilet or taking small baths.
I too have cola bottles, milk jugs, bleach jugs and juice jugs I have saved on my porch for simply taking baths and doing dishes. I bought cases of bottled water for cooking and I bought the trash can and the tarp for catching clean rain water. Hope this helps. God bless and I pray that all is safe and well with you and your family.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
