Introduction

Hi and welcome to everyone who will take the time to read this blog. First let me say that this blog is independent of any organization, agency or entity and issues discussed herein are entirely at the will of the author/owner of this blog. Having gotten that out of the way, let me continue by saying this blog does however have an important purpose. Times are getting a little rough out there for many. I'm speaking in terms of the economy and jobs and savings and how to balance family issues with limited income or no income at all. A change in plans may be brought about by some kind of emergency. This blog will not necessarily discuss how to solve those problems but will however give advice and information to easy some of the burden and at the same time help you to become more self-reliant. That means you may have to rely on yourself and your family and not so much on others for your well being. This blog's only interest is to make available to you and your friends information that has been found to be helpful and then try to place it on one site for you to access. Like a one stop shop on issues pertaining to emergency preparedness. This blog will also talk about home and personal safety. I will include important and tested links so you can reveiw and download as you see appropriate. My blog will be updated as necessary, but would anticipate at least monthly. Please accept the fact that I am in no way an expert, but have some experience in emergencies and how to deal with them. I hope you will find my efforts worthwhile and beneficial to you.
