Water

I went to Enrichment Night tonight. It was our meeting for the quarter. They had a great mexican dinner and then we had Patti Preparedness fly on in in her cape and tights costume to get us all fired up about emergency preparedness. I have to say, it was really well thought out and cute.

Then we had 3 speakers from the ward talk to us: the first about water storage, the Bishop next on financial preparedness, and then a sister on Spiritual preparedness by studying the Joseph Smith RS lessons. It was so well done. I came home very inspired.

We have been good about our water storage, but it needs to be rotated. I did order some Aqua Liters that have a 5 year storage life for cars and portable drinking. I guess I better calendar a weekend soon to empty, clean, and refill our 55 gallon drums! The RS presidency's point was to at least START. You can only eat the preparedness elephant one bite at a time! We have a lot of storage that needs to be gone through. But we do have our 72 hour kits! Those were Christmas presents to each one of us a couple of years ago.
