Ok, the scrapbooking. I used to be so good at keeing up. I was caught up for years and years. But now I am almost 2 years behind. I just have not been able to get back into it (even though it is one of my favorite things to do.) I just DONT HAVE TIME!! So with a few days left of the months I whipped out a ton of pages- exactly 20. Hopefully doing some scrapbooking will get me back into enjoying it. But I'll be honest, it is so hard to find the time. I need another goal that I will do a few pages a month.
And....the food storage. This is something I have NEVER done. I mentioned it before, it is so intimidating to me. Where to start? How to do it? Instead of focusing on having a 1 year supply, I shrunk that down to a 1 month supply of food and 3 day supply of water. Only 3 days for water because that is still a lot of water. Once I got over that first initial question "How the heck do I do this?" it became so much easier. When I filled up the first 2 pop bottle with water, I felt so good. It felt great to know that if worse comes to worst, my kids will have clean water to drink. And that is why I am doing this.
Before and after pictures of my storage shelves. Ok, I told you I was awful at this. The before shelves are so bare. The afters are not much better, but it's a start and that was my goal.
This website is awsome! I filled out the excel sheet (under 10 baby steps) to figure out what food to buy for storage and it helped me out so much.
