I had to take phys ed for my degree. So, I started working out again. I had no idea just how bad outta shape I am, upper body and endurance wise.
When i was 15 i could do push ups non stop and never tire. I sometimes did over 1000 a day, 300 or so at a time. Now, I'm barely able to pull off ten without getting winded. Just 2 or 3 years ago i could jog non stop for a few miles. I'd be tuckered, but I could do it.
Now, after having two surgeries that laid me up a bit and being unemployed I must have let myself go without realizing it. I can hardly jog a mile without almost turning blue and feeling like my hearts gonna burst. It's embarrasing to admit, but something I now know I need to work on. And I think it's a big part of being prepared.
That, sir, that is just wrong.Originally Posted by RWC

Moved my garden plot to a different spot. Last year it got to much noon sun, and only the tomatoes did well. We shall see how this spot does, later in the year.
Have Lights? Thank a Lineman!

Bought some seeds. Tobacco,veggies and greens. And a corn wheat grinder.

D.O.M.
Oh, just used my high tech wood splitter to split and stack another cord.
Keeps me warm in more ways than one.
Life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it.
I bought 2 more 20 Gallon jugs of propane off of craigslist for about 60% of new.
Ken has helped me out so much with legal stuff, I need to keep track of it so I can pay him back. I will be placing a 'score card' in my sig as a reminder.
DEBT:
Repaid:
Ordered a 3 month supply for two people of mountian house dehyds in the #10 cans (20+ year shelf life) bought another 1,000 rounds of .22 ammo and 200 rounds of 30.06 ammo. I've been a little lazy on my preps lately so time to play catch up.
If by what I have learned over the years, allow me to help one person to start to prepare. If all the mistakes I have made, let me give one person the wisdom that allows them to save their life or the life of a loved one in an emergency. Then I will truly know that all the work I have done will have been worth every minute.
Tech preparing. For the possible Microsoft collapse, or something...
So, I finally gave up with Microsoft operating systems on all computers. Running on Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic Koala" now... Finally free!
Survival is not about surviving AGAINST the nature. It's about surviving WITH the nature.
You can't go in to nature, nature is not a place or an object. Nature just is. You are living it.
Microsoft collapse. Now that right there is funny I don't care who you are. That's probably what the Mayans were trying to warn us about. 2012 is the year Microsoft implodes. Too funny.
