You've got this, Mama!
Have you ever tried to find something that you KNEW that you purchased for your preparedness, but you couldn’t find it? Remember that time you wanted to go camping, but you couldn’t find your camping stove? Or maybe you could find every sleeping bag but ONE. Organizing your preparedness supplies […]
The election is just around the corner and Covid numbers are progressively (whether really or artificially) going up. Illinois has already started reinstating stricter control over its populace because of Covid numbers. What some governors really want is control.
