The only difference between adventure and disaster is preparedness.

Week 11 Shopping List

We're almost to the end of our 12 week emergency preparedness shopping extravaganza. It's hard to believe only a mere 11 weeks ago you were totally unprepared for a disaster, but just look at you now! (Right? You've followed all of my advice? You have an awesome disaster kit? Right?---this is a guilt trip, in case you haven't caught on). Anyway, here we are at week 11 and the theme of the week is "Special Items As Needed." So, you may need some of these items, you may not need others. Here goes:

*Food for special diets (i.e. food allergies, religious preferences, diabetic)

*Baby food, bottles or infant formula

*Diapers (make sure to update sizes as needed, a size 1 diaper isn't much help when your kid now wears size 5, ask me how I know!)

*Pet food (you might begin to look pretty tasty to your hungry Rottweiler after awhile)

*Leash and pet carrier

*Spare eyeglasses or contact supplies

*Items for denture care

*Extra hearing aids and batteries

*Feminine hygiene supplies

*Any other medical or mobility supplies you or a family member might require


Alrighty--we're almost there. If you've missed the previous 10 shopping lists, look at the right-hand side of the blog and scroll down til you find the "labels" section and click on 12-week shopping list.
