Resources and Commentary on Prepping in Suburbia
After a year or so of the site being down, we’re slowly relaunching it with all the old content, and writing new content. It’s been well over a year since I’ve done any prepping, and recently started again. Updates over the last 18 months are, Ms. Prepper is now Mrs. Prepper, and there’s the addition of Baby Prepper, too… I feel like it’s all new again, and I’m learning from scratch…

Who Would You Bug Out With?
A question on one of the boards I am on popped up, and I responded, which I rarely do these days. I’ve been kind of burned out of writing and been focusing on building more preps, losing some of my flab and getting into better shape, etc.… However, I thought this…
The Final Preparation – Part 2: Where There Is A Will…
In the first part of this series it was pointed out many of the ridiculous and frankly lame excuses people often give for not preparing (“getting their affairs in order” as the old saying goes) for their ultimate demise. Regardless of a disaster, we are all going to…
Honestly, Where is the Answer?
Honestly, I have not been motivated to write recently. I feel like work is consuming my life over the past several months. Being in sales I am not surprised, but I feel like I am working harder longer hours for smaller rewards. The question I ask myself, “am I…
The Final Preparation – Part 1: Dare to Consider
Death and taxes. The two things the old joke says can’t be avoided (and these days I often think the order of those two should be reversed!). No matter how fit we are, how healthy a life style we live, no matter how great our healthcare is, it doesn’t matter. Sooner…

Happy New Year, A New Chapter Begins, 2012
Hello everyone, and Happy New Year. A couple of house cleaning items today on the first day of January, 2012. First, it was a fast year. I cannot believe that 2011 year has flown by so quickly. I can say that I certainly did not expect this past year to go so…
The SHTF Is Here – Hurray (NOT!!)
That title caught your attention for sure! But believe it or not, there are people out there who actually want and hope for a massive, national SHTF event! You can see it in the way many people on a large number of prepper sites write or the videos they produce. They…
Of Leadership, Reliability, Responsibility — and Preparedness
Reality check: Some people are just more prepared for events of life than others. “Events” can be anything from a personal emergency to an unexpected home expense to a family emergency to a natural disaster to something good like a great job or investment or trip…
2011 Urban Farming in Review
2011 was a pretty good year farming wise at home. For an urban (I do consider myself urban) backyard container farm we did pretty good. And more importantly, we learned a lot to apply for next year. Starting out we added several new containers to our farm. I was…
