September is that month when kids
are back to school, apples are getting ripe, and the harvest is slowing and
almost over. The days get shorter, and the weather is usually pleasant. It is
also our National Preparedness Month! What a perfect time for us to take a look
at our family’s preparedness. How is your food storage? Did you fill the
shelves this summer with home canning? What can you add? We can pay special
attention to our emergency and disaster preparedness. Natural disasters have
become a common occurrence! We never know when something might happen at home,
or afar – that will affect our family. BUT – we can get our 72 hour kits
updated, prep our homes, and have equipment on hand so we are ready for
whatever comes. Let us enjoy our September with all the wonder that it brings,
and use this time to be a little more prepared!
