It Bothers Me

Posted Tuesday, March 22, 2011 by lucky_witch
So I had this feeling for a couple of day now. I'm not sure if I'm just being paranoid of everything that is happening around us. I mean the killer earthquake and tsunami in Japan, and all the war that is being born in different countries, it makes me wonder if we're getting really near the final days.

Being a mother of 3, I'm afraid for my kids. You know, I'm morbid at times. I keep on imagining things happening and seeing ourselves in that situation. I know it's not healthy but it is one way of making me think possible survival strategies that may save me and my family. Actually, I'm done with my survival kit list, and I'm ready to buy them. It gives me a sense security to know that I have all the things necessary to survive just in case calamities happen.

I remember 3 years ago when our place was hit by typhoon Frank. We're not prepared during that time. We have no medicine, ointments, foods and water. It was a nightmare to all of us. I don't want that to happen again. So, now I'm making myself more aware and ready with all the possibilities.

Here is my survival kit content and hopefully it will help you in packing yours:

-1 bottle of alcohol
-Betadine
-Sterilize gauge pad
-Scissor
-medicines for fever, cough, colds, diarrhea, and antibioic.
-Ointment for burns
-Anti-fungal cream
-Drinking water
-Ready to eat canned goods
-Biscuits
-chocolate candy bars
-Blanket and Extra Clothes
-Flashlight
-Swiss knife
-Batteries
-Can Opener
-Transistor radio
-Matches and Candles

If you have kids like me, your survival kit should also include:

-Diapers
-Medicine suited for the age of the child
-Wet Tissues
-Clothes (5 to 10 pairs)
-Blanket
-Ready to eat baby foods and biscuits
-Drinking water and formula milk
-Some small toys to ease to help your child stay calm
