It may not be a big deal for everyone, but this marks a new success for my little family. Up to this point, food storage for us was what was in our fridge and our cupboards upstairs.
2 years ago when I was pregnant with my second boy, My husband was laid off. We were ill-prepared for the six month job search to come, and ended up relying heavily on the LDS church's welfare program, due to the fact that our money in savings was enough to barely help us scrape by with our bills.
It was a trying time for us.
Fast forward to now. Tonight I started stocking our food storage pantry. No it's not perfect, but it's a start.
Between John's job now and my small business we are able to cover our bills, put money away in savings, pay off some big debts AND build our emergency preparedness supply.
I am so grateful that we are in this position now. The great thing is when we want something, we can have it because when I work, I earn, and I can do as much or as little as I want. What a blessing!
I am excited to announce, that I am putting an extra emphasis on our emergency preparedness, and I'm going to include quite a bit of it here in my blog posts.
Yay! Right?
