I know I am regardless of what Q told us. You should of been prepping the last few months if you haven't been already.
Go get yourself a generator today if you don't have one. You don't need one that runs the entire house, just get one that's strong enough to power your essentials like your fridge and deep freezer.
Stock up on firewood.
Get cast iron skillets if you don't, you can cook over an open fire if need be.
Obviously, stock up on food and water. Get a survival water filter, or print off the "how to disinfect water for consumption using regular household bleach" chart and keep it handy. A tiny bit of bleach goes a LONG way.
Have a fallback/rendezvous location picked out just in case you and your family need to get the hell outta dodge. Have a go bag ready.
You will sleep MUCH better at night knowing you can take care of yourself without outside help. It'll ease the stress/tension levels ten fold as well. If you are panic buying, you are too late.
That's a timely πΈποΈ. This is the kind of level-headed common sense info we need more of around here. If you felt like expanding this comment into a sort of "how to survive the next three months just in case" post (and let the mods know), I'd be happy to sticky it, fren.
Agree! Our electricity, phones and internet went out for 13 days because of the ice storm. ( creepy AF because all the limbs on the north side of every tree broke off and made a loud cracking/crashing sound that was constant-15 acres worth)
But the lesson was what to do if I loose all that. Much more prepared now.
Luckily we have a pool we used for all the animals in the neighborhood. Lots! We do have a generator now as well as batteries and an inverter.
We are protected right?

Sounds good Cats, i'll put a little tidbit together and flair it as discussion so if anyone else wants to add to the list, I'd be more than happy to.
Thanks!
