Our community just went through a major fire, in Ruidoso, NM, over the last two weeks. Be prepared for the unexpected. The fire spread so fast that it closed off the road to the south, then the road to the north, no road to the west all mountains with no roads. The whole town of 7k had to travel out of town, 70 miles, to Roswell on one mountain road. It was a line of cars going by for hours. The fire gave no one time to gather possessions or get gas. Now the rains are creating floods. We did not think disaster could happen in our little town. But it did and it can happen anywhere. Have a plan, make a bugout bag, and keep the tank full. Peace and Love!

[@countycalling]

As much as I hate to say it, but I’m afraid of what is coming. I’m prepared, don’t get me wrong, I have plenty of self protection, food, water, first aid stuff, medicine and things I will need, but I’m alone after the death of my husband. I’m trying to find me a home in the country to buy, but I know it’s not likely to happen before that. I can only pray that the lord will lead me correctly

[@marjoriedanley6131]

Take it to the Lord in prayer, every day. He is there for us. The way that helps me, and gives me peace, is what Scripture told me. This world is not my Home, and when I die, that’s not the end. It’s just the beginning of a Life in Heaven, with God of the Holy Bible, and never will I be separated from Him. I have always wondered how Majestic the Angels will sound when they sing.

[@kathleenpoppen8138]

[@amymorales4622]

It must be extremely difficult to be coping with the death of your husband at the same time that the whole world is in turmoil. I was widowed about 20 years ago, so I know how hard that is. I felt like I didn't sleep soundly for a couple of years after my husband died. I am glad that you have the stuff to be prepared. I am glad that you are praying. Moving is a huge adjustment in itself and it's easy to "bite off more than you can chew" by relocating to a rural home which may have crops and animals to attend to. As I've gotten older, tending a big garden and a flock of chickens is a lot harder than it used to be. Moving those big sacks of feed takes more strength than I have. I hope that you find the solution that works for you, and that you can release the fear.

[@makadutaarzola9453]

Prayers for direction and safety for you 🙏❤️

[@mares4636]

I would like to relocate to a place I could have a manageable garden and a handful of chickens. I currently live in the low desert and growing anything is difficult, not impossible but difficult with small yields. The heat is a killer 3-4 months of the year. I'm also widowed and don't live near family nor is it going to be likely I would relocate to be with them. My biggest emergency fear is water if the grid goes down. I'm more aware and prepared than most people I know but being alone is the scariest part for me.

I bet you had NOT ONLY canned food & stored water, but a way to access fresh meat, veg and water on your ppty. 👍🏻🐓🪿🐇 Oh Leisa? This person would make an EXCELLENT guest for an upcoming video…HINT HINT. Seven months! Seriously, a job well done. ❤ I can’t imagine the level of satisfaction you felt knowing you were this secure. Most inspiring. I am raising meat rabbits and have hens - my neighbors are in full support of my efforts (I bribe them with eggs 🤣). Still learning to grow forage for the critters. Thx for your post!

[@RabbitHole-xyz]

@@joannc147 Greetings, thank you for the kind words. As you might be able to tell, we are survivors of the Rabbit Hole. Some might say that we have a fascinating story. We cashed out of the Rat Race a long, long time ago… We implemented our own austerity plan and eliminated all debt. We learned skills needed to survive and thrive. As we continue to age, we are naturally becoming less active. We have learned to co-op with others. We find bargains and purchase 40# of meat at a time and pressure can most of it. We have nearly two years of animal proteins put up. We also have renewable plant proteins. In years gone by we had a social media presence and had a great following. We got sucked deep into the Rabbit Hole and lost all focus. We were betrayed by folks we thought we could trust. We stepped away from most social media and crawled out of the Rabbit Hole. All we could do is just share the love with the community around us. Somewhere along the line, we have become tribal and are digressing into a hunting and gathering type of society. Enjoy the journey, it’s going to be like an E-Ticket Ride at Disneyland.

Hubby and I believe we are prepared for almost anything! We have lots of canned chicken, beef, pork, soups and stews and now potatoes from my garden too. Have freeze dried foods too to feed us both and the chicken mostly for the dogs. Have 100 lbs rice, sugar all safely stored. Have many medical supplies as we both have needed them all along. There is so much preparing we can do and have been working on it for many years. Be careful when out and about as crazies are following people planning to steal whatever it was you bought or if you were at an atm. Keep your head on a swivel.

Have you tried flipping your breaker off for a couple days to a week to see how things go?

[@denisewilson8367]

​@paemtff9412 This is a great way to test yourself to see if you really are covering all your needs. Try it foe at least a week. Longer if you really want a good test, try a month. Don't buy anything, don't go to the store at all. Keep a notebook on your counter or table. When going thru your "test week" everytime you do anything and find out you are missing something or wish you had this or that, WRITE IT DOWN IN YOUR NOTEBOOK. After your test time is over look at your notebook and see what you need to improve on. Do you need pastas, maybe you need nails or some bigger screws or some medicine for a toothach. Whatever is on your list is where you need to improve. Start there. Good luck.😊

Please just quit trying to warn/wake people up. Its pretty much a waste of your precious energy and time. I am tired of people telling me that I'm a black cloud. Worry about you.

[@JubeeBijou]

Also, all of these people you try to talk to, but ignore you, when shtf you will be the home they run to because they will remember your wise advice that they ignored. No talking. It’s the first rule of preparedness.

[@glendabenard3772]

Also a great thing else to have is solar lights. You can put them in your window and if there are no electricity then you still have lights. Thank you for your videos. They are very helpful in these trying times.

[@withoutlimitsbudgets]

The great toilet paper and paper towel crisis of 2020. I was so shocked to see people fighting over these items or buying them at astronomical prices on eBay and other places like Amazon on the Internet! When us as preppers were told that we were taking these items off the shelf. I had to laugh and I was pissed at the same time. I already had three years of paper towels, and three years of toilet paper in stock at my house. I didn’t need either one! Did however go to Walmart and pick up six months worth of coffee and six months worth of coffee creamer, and which I stuck half the coffee creamer and maybe a little bit more into my freezers for later use. I also made sure that I was stocked up on a couple more months of food for my Chihuahuas, but we weren’t out stealing the last packs of paper towels or toilet paper because us has preppers know what the stock for how much of stock and when we need to restock! It’s the doomsday preppers in the apocalypse preppers really irritates the hell out of me with their Clickbait and freaking out the human population who don’t normally know how to correctly build and sustain a pantry. If for reasons they should do so. Those of us who prep for shortages and prep for job losses and prep for bad weather is really what a true prepper is in the how we stock our pantries we know how to do the vital way of doing things which suits and fits the needs of our households! Lisa, this is why I love your channel, because you talk straight out you cut around the bullshit and you give everybody the truth and simple understanding of what it’s like to really be a prepper

[@toniphillips1455]

This is a great reminder, I needed that, have been prepping since 2008 but have always thought I was self sufficient ~30 yrs... funny true story, durring the jab years my daughter was at Sams and a man behind her in line said about the toilet paper shortage "this is all the preppers fault" my daughter turned and giggled "no, the preppers already had theirs" the man got quiet...the recent tornado in NWArkansas has changed my perspective, and though my home is underground the trees got my propane tank and the extra propane bottles, something about the air pressure made them empty? My beautiful trees for hiding in the woods are gone and some fell on the canning shed....gotta rethink all of this...thanks for this video!!!

[@sbarrett1020]

Love this chat as an extra reminder. Cherries went on sale here so I bought $50 worth and have put up 4 qts and 10 pts of whole cherries and making preserves with the rest of it!

[@LurkerSmurf]

One thing I'm working on is knowing where all my supplies are manufactured. Do the products I buy cross state lines? TP factory is in the next county...hurray! Medicines, both otc and prescription, much farther. Non-processed foods, in-state. Wheat products and processed, elsewhere. Giant international shipping port, less than an hour away. Supply chain awareness.

[@Nwladylaura369]

Ports are not that secure and neither are our power plants! 😐

[@mariefolsom2259]

I completely agree with you. The people factor is exhausting. Situational awareness is very important.

[@J_LOVES_ME]

Friends, it's a great idea to be prepared even in the case of a natural disaster. A large earthquake could easily take out water and power. And it could take weeks or even months to restore it. Just imagine what that would be like. Make water storage a priority. Terrorist attacks on our power grids and other essential services is a real possibility nowadays. I started soft prepping in 2018-2019 and then when 2020 happened and everyone was panicking because supplies were scarce, we had PLENTY of everything we needed. And with the help of KZbinrs Like Leisa, now I can can my own food as well. Which lasts longer and is healthier than store-bought canned foods.

[@bbrhody831]

I hear ya. I don't want to people.

[@julietaylor63]

Good stuff, Leisa, keeping it in the forefront and reminding everyone to be ready.

[@debrahumphrey9538]

Thanks for sharing this!!! I think it's so smart to be prepared as much as possible for anything!!! I had slacked off a bit before the pandemic...but I was raised by parents that were teenagers and young adults during the Great Depression, so I've always had a pretty good stocked pantry for emergencies, but now it's stocked up well again, and zi keep taking stuff from the freezer and canning it up and buying more! I don't have anyone to team up with and my kids and adult grandkids all think I'm bat 💩 CRAZY but we will eat for at least a year or more if there's civil unrest or whatever can and inevitably will happen! Job loss, health issues (that's our biggest one, we're ancient) I just wish I knew how to fix my freeze dryer 🤐😭 I've got a vacuum leak and we are not even a little bit mechanically inclined...it's been down since last year 😢 Have a happy and joyous weekend!!! 🥰🌹

[@denisewilson8367]

An easy fix for a vacuum leak? Change out the tubing. Measure all the vacuum lines take a sample piece to the hardware store so you get the right size and thickness. Change the lines. Then try your dryer it should work.

[@tracylitz1872]

For those of you who are putting together your First Aid Kits you should also consider adding women's personal hygiene sanitary napkins to stop heavy bleeding of gaping wounds, and also tampons. Yes tampons. They can be used for stopping nose bleeds. You can cut them in half, and use the string to easily pull out the soaked tampon out of the nostril. I'm a retired paramedic, and you have to utilize different things to think out of the box. Meat Tenderizer can be added to your First Aid Kit as well,if you live near the beach and can be used on wounds from jellyfish stings.

[@AgnesMariaL]

Raw honey. Must have for deep, difficult wounds!

[@denisewilson8367]

​@@AgnesMariaL ANY SIZE WOUND

[@AgnesMariaL]

@@denisewilson8367 Very true! However, honey IS messy, so I prefer yarrow for anything that can be easily bandaged, when it is in season 🥰

[@sherri1523]

Also retired paramedic. Vaseline on the tampons for nose bleeds. Makes it not stick in there and cause more damage. Antibiotic ointment is okay but not first choice!

[@TUKByV]

Do sanitary pads STOP blood, or ABSORB it? Do ambulances carry packs of sanitary pads?

Bidets. Bypass the need for toilet paper and filling your septic system. We buy the huge bottles of liquid dishsoap to refill our bathroom and kitchen liquid foamng soap dispensers. A tablespoon or two and fill with water. Works great and is more cost effective than the handsoap refill bottles. Long ago, people used to use bed curtins around their beds to keep in their body heat. You can make the frame easily if staying warm is a problem.

[@authenticallytracy3421]

You still need toilet paper or something equivalent to wipe the water off unless you enjoy that moist feeling.

[@johnrockwell6088]

@@authenticallytracy3421Nope. We use small, fleece baby washcloths to DRY, then toss it in a small bin beside the toilet. We wash it with our underwear.

One thing occurred to me since you brought up home defense. If it were a riotous situation or home invasion, they don’t knock. Windows might get broken or a door busted in. Same type of damage could occur because of storms, roof damage etc. How would you fix that window or door or roof etc.and stores are not available in the moment; maybe have some plywood cut to correct sizes to cover windows or supplies to fix a door jamb or tarp to throw on a hole in the roof.

[@denisewilson8367]

A couple sheets of plexiglass, and a few tubes of caulk. A few sheets of plywood, a pack or two of shingles, the roofing nails, and screws. A few different sized tarps and a roll of 4 Mil to 6 Mil of plastic, staples, a few rolls of duck tape and you can temporarily repair just about anything.

I appreciate you discussing all this information, we all need reminders. Our library is supporting its second emergency preparedness class sponsored by our county. I attended last year, great info to start getting ready. I asked the question what emergency should we be concerned about? She responded, fire, flooding, and severe snow storms. We only have 3 roads available to get out of town. We are surrounded by mountains on all sides. In the winter the 3rd road is a mountain pass not assessable because it’s closed. I chose not to have my head, mind , stuck in the sand. Thank you for your reminders.

[@denisewilson8367]

Home canned meats is cheaper than cat food and has no chemicals, shelf stable for a loner time. I would pick up a few cans of mackerel to have a variety for your cats. A regular can of mackerel is equal to 4 cans of cat food. So four meals for your cat. It can be opened and kept for those 4 days in a cool space, no fridge needed for animal use. 24 hours for human use. I have no fridge there are things you can do/use to survive without a fridge.

[@missperfect2657]

I've thought about mackerel. I feed 16 including my own. Good to know that one can equals 4 cat food cans. Thank you!

[@TUKByV]

Cats need some organ meats. They cannot stay healthy on canned fish alone. Consider raising live food. You also must begin conditioning them to these "post-crisis" foods now; start by offering it to them on meal per week. Best wishes from a cat lover.

[@Simplyinspried]

I know I am preparing more than ever. Just never know. Rather be prepared in many ways than none.

[@ronndapagan]

Great discussion on staying alert on what is happening around us. Thank you for sharing this list of emergency supplies we need to have on hand at all times. My state of Ohio had had some severe storms, flooding, and tornadoes since the end of February. Several small towns north of Dayton were hit twice by tornadoes within a three week span and still trying to recover from the first disaster. Our local news station reports severe thunderstorms or any severe weather event and displays a list of emergency supplies that every home needs for if the power goes out or if families need to bug out to safety. If every home has the basics of emergency supplies and build a good stock pile, each home would be ahead of the curve when supply chains get disrupted. We all need to be ready for whatever comes our way.
