When the Power is Out

"The two most important days in your life were the day you were born and the day you find out why." Mark Twain Day 25 of Covid crisis    April 8th, 2020 Bouncing off the walls yet? While the lock-down continues, some are living through horrific tornados, flooding, and earthquakes, while some of us are sitting here watching the snow pile up. If we are lucky only 6 inches by Monday in my area.  So far, here at least, the power has not gone out. But you know it is only a matter of time before everyone will feel that pinch. I've posted a video down below that is scary as all hell, if even only half of it comes true. Time to learn some new skills, kids. Looks like all hell is about to descend upon us.  A Look at All that Dirty Water If for whatever reason the power grid in your area goes down there are diseases that can and will emerge very quickly, especially after an episode of flooding. Consider if you will the liquid...

"The two most important days in your life were the day you were born and the day you find out why." Mark Twain                                                                                                                 April 7th, 2020--Day number 24 of the great American Emergency. Who would have guessed that something of this scale could take out the entire world! That *virus that must not be named* has  touched almost every human on this planet.  Time to saddle up the ponies and get on the trail to a new adventure, kids. Life is changing so fast that this ol' gal can't make head nor tails of who's got what and how many. Life as we knew it are now...

"The two most important days in your life were the day you were born and the day you find out why." Mark Twain                                          The media is giving us a constant stream of fear porn, every day, be afraid, be afraid. They are feeding my anxiety beast a new  flavor of the day, with business killing lock-downs, real world death numbers, and voices of grief. I knew for a long time that something would happen to our over processed civilization. It had to. I just didn't know what it was going to be or which way the human destructive wind would blow. Can you feel it too? Fear has a stinky feel and a smell to it. It permeates our collective energy, and media is having a field day with this shit. They have expertly driven this fear on every electronic device known to man. That processed fear meant for your consu...

"The two most important days in your life were the day you were born and the day you find out why." Mark Twain Holy Wow!! Shit's gettin' real! I had originally planned on talking about Sacajawea, the young Indian girl who accompanied Lewis and Clark on the exploration of the Northwest territories, she had some excellent stories to tell. But life in the here and now is getting much more tenuous and this needs to be discussed, pronto! You see, ladies are being attacked for their groceries when leaving the grocery store. These poor women are usually distracted, struggling with a bunch of bags, with her kids in tow. The perfect target. Next up is older women, easy peasy. Those that wish to take from you are looking for those that will not pose much resistance.  I am here to tell you it is only going to get worse from here on out. Every body will be a target! We have been comfortable for a very long time, actually to the poin...

"The two most important days in your life were the day you were born and the day you find out why." Mark Twain Gramma Jan here. Make your own won't be a political blog except to say, stuff just got real with this corona nasty. If you live in large city or a blue state, you can actually feel the noose tightening, the limits of your freedom being curtailed.  Several survivors of Nazi occupied countries of WWII have warned us, they saw it coming to America. Doesn't matter who the person in the White House is now or in the future, the hunger games are here. Life as we knew ain't goin' back! When I was growing up there were no free handouts, at least none I was aware of, you had to swim or you sank. Local charities were usually church or religious oriented. Even as late as the 1970's, women needed a signature from her husband or her father to secure a loan from a bank. And listen, Home Economics was a real class ta...

Canadian prepper gets real. Shortly after my book came out to the public, I was contacted by the History channel. They were looking for people to audition for the series called "Alone." Now, I read several comments on various forum that this was a rigged event and that only hand picked actors were being used. I am here to tell you that was not the case, this was the real deal! Real survivalists, real people, no actors. The casting director did her homework and contacted people that had put out books or that made survival videos. A nice young woman from a high-rise office in New York got me by e-mail, initially, because I had posted it on one of my websites. We had a delightful conversation about the wildness and what they were looking for. But as life sometimes does, they declined my audition application because I was 60 years old and a woman. She didn't say as much but I think they thought I would have been a health risk. I had been living out in the wo...
