Since Day Five of this Challenge, I’ve been sorting thru my main BOB, my GetHomeBag, and assorted auxiliary bags/containers. My tiny house has been an ever-changing MESS! I can’t seem to get one project completed before I’m immersed into the next three. NOT all of the projects are from these Challenges…normal life goes on too. And this isn’t a bad thing…cuz this IS how life is Before/During/After some crisis.
I have my BOB inventoried completely and the next step was to study the inventory and decide where my holes are in my categories: water/food/tools/light/business/sanity/etc. Also decide where I can trim things down for weight and/or volume. Hadn’t gotten that far with a whole brain working for analysis.
DING! Time’s up and we’re heading out the door to live with the BOB’s contents, huh? Hmmm… That IS how these catastrophes happen. Fair enough….
Um…there is a [for real] MAJOR WINTER STORM bearing down on the Rockies this weekend. Fortunately it seems to be still north of our location….we’ll see. My Doppler Radar seems to be NOT working today….a real let down for my personal weather forecasting. Hmph! My Altimeter-as-a-Barometer isn’t going low so I think we’ll be spared. Barometers do not work at high altitude. Ah, a different site is up…so I can keep an eye on that one as well at the Jet Stream site.
Also….it’s HUNGRY BEAR SEASON…they’re frantically consuming all the calories they can find.
So this OldMtWoman might decide to go THEORETICAL…leaning on lots of past real experience…for tonite’s challenge. I’ll report later on how I would or am doing it safely.
