We’ve been so busy the last two weeks that I almost forgot to take notes for the challenge. Being that we are bound to travel a lot in the upcoming weeks/months, I am going through everything once again! Can be anal this way on certain topics. But I believe it can be a strenght more than a weakness.
Just re-read an article about which blankets you should keep in the car in the Emergency Car Kit. I was proud to have added more blankets, but now considering adding at least two sleeping bags. They are quicker to dry. Plus it’s better adapted for our kind of Extreme cold weather. Luckily, found one at my thrifstore not long ago. It will do for now. My vaccuum sealed bags fit nicely under a carboard in the trunk.
A family member was recently injured and will need surgery. Made me realize that we were not really fully prepared for that. My partner and I will assist in any way we can, meal prepping, organizing etc… Gives us a good practice run to know what needs to be improved asap.
My to-do list seems to grow every day. My notebooks follow me every where we go. Jotting down every thing done, to read, to research etc… People are now used to see me reaching for one in my carry bag. I don’t carry a purse, hate them.
Spent time teaching loom-knitting to more than willing kids. Their friends want to learn too, so that is scheduled to happen this Summer, probably on rainy days when they are bored inside lol
Learning to mend more types of clothes. Got fabric glue and fuseable web as well as more thread bobbins. Not planning on only using duct tape for repairs, unless really necessary.
