#Flood Preparedness Alert for #LlanoTexas outside of #Austin #TX. Mandatory evacuations for those living around the #LlanoRiver. #Water is near record levels ALL PEOPLE must seek higher ground ASAP! If you want to know why I’m a #Prepper #UrbanPrepper and #CityPrepper THIS IS WHY. #Flood #Flooding are the #1 Natural Disaster in #America and you must prepare for it if you live anywhere need a body of water OR if you basement.

Early next year I do plan to update my Urban #BugOutBag and design my BIY [Build-It-Yourself] #INCHBag. There is so much to do in #Prepping that you have to get started for those who are still on the fence.

Article; “Tuesday forecast for Austin: Showers are moving across much of the Hill Country, causing the #Llano River at Llano to rise above 38 feet prompting evacuations in the area, the National Weather Service said.

Forecasters urged residents living in low-lying and vulnerable areas near the river to seek higher ground. They said the river is expected to crest at 41 feet around 7 a.m., which would make it the second-highest crest since June 14, 1935, when it reached 41.5 feet.

Llano homes in #RobinsonCityPark, Scotts Acres, near Castell, the FM 2900 Bridge in #Kingsland, Kingsland Lodge and homes downstream in Marble Falls are expected to flood or be severely damaged once the Llano River hits 38 feet, forecasters said.

In neighboring #MasonCounty along the Llano River, 6.64 inches of rain has fallen since midnight, according to the Lower Colorado River Authority.

Closer to Austin in #WilliamsonCounty, a flood warning was in effect for the south fork of the #SanGabrielRiver at Georgetown until Wednesday morning, the National Weather Service said. Flood stage on the #SanGabriel there is 9 feet, and at 6 a.m. the river was at 9.2 feet, the weather service said. The river could continue to rise to near 9.6 feet by Tuesday afternoon, forecasters said.” END but continues.

STAY P.R.I.M.E AND DRY my friends.

A Reality Check for Those Who Plan to Start Prepper Homestead AFTER the SHTF

By Daisy Luther – The Organic Prepper

Lots of preppers are convinced that they’re going to “live off the land” should the world as we know it come tumbling down around our ears. Seed banks are stockpiled, books are purchased, and people are confident that they’ll be able to outlive everyone else based on the sweat of their inexperienced brows.

But this may not be the best of ideas for some folks.

First Aid Kit Essentials: The Minimum You Need to Start and Build Your First Aid Kit

An accident can happen or you can fall ill when you least expect it. This, among many other reasons, is why it is imperative to have a well-stocked kit with first aid kit essentials.

Since accidents can happen just about anywhere, make sure you think about the different places you are on most days and ensure there is a first aid kit handy at all times. For most, it will be places like home, car, work or a backpack you use for camping. Many even carry them while traveling.

This article is about the very basics you need in a first aid kit. You will want to think about how you want to build it up. What are the components you need on top of the basics to create a customized first aid kit? Maybe family members have allergic reactions and will need specific medications. Or you’re a survivalist who knows the importance of flashlights and emergency blankets. Lives have been saved because of these kits.

Once you know what your lifestyle requires, you can build your own first aid kit or buy one that suits your needs and has the components you want.

Whichever you decide, here are some first aid kit essentials you should consider:

1. Scissors.

You can readily use these scissors to trim gauze pads and bandages, cut medical tape, and even cut clothes so you can access a wound. As far as first aid goes, they are more effective

than other tools such as a knife. If possible, you should have a pair of

small curved scissors in your kit. They are worth the investment. The good news

is that these scissors are safer than regular, everyday use scissors.

2. Disposable gloves

You need to protect yourself first. The person to whom you are administering first aid

might have different infections or even blood-borne diseases.

It is important that you avoid touching the injured part with bare hands - only with gloved hands. Aside from protecting you, this will reduce the chances of transferring more germs on the other person’s wound. Invest in latex gloves so that you can clean up the affected area effectively. If you

have an allergy to latex, consider non-latex gloves. Non-latex gloves are still effective in preventing cross-infection.

3. Instant cold packs.

Cold packs are essential in reducing swelling and inflammation, as well as ease itching from bug stings and bites. But did you also know that you can stop bleeding faster by using a cold pack and a little pressure?

Your body is very good - too good - at controlling bleeding. When you are injured, it will send blood and cells to the injured area to start the healing process. When you apply ice to the area, it starts vasodilation, which reduces the amount of blood flow to the area. Of course, it also reduces swelling and inflammation at the wound site. Make sure you wrap the area with gauze before applying the ice pack.

4. Antiseptic wash

Antiseptics are important in preventing the growth of disease-causing bacteria and microorganisms. They are used primarily to cleanse wounds so it is important that you wash the affected properly to stop the growth of germs. Water can cleanse the wound from dirt and debris but it does not prevent the growth of germs.

To use antiseptics:

Clean hands thoroughly

Clean wound with water to get dirt or debris out of the wound.

Apply antiseptic wash to the wound.

Pat the area around the wound dry with a clean paper towel.

5. Bandages and Gauze

This goes without saying that you should have bandages and gauze as basics in a first aid kit. A good first aid kit should have many different sizes of bandages. Gauzes can be used when the wound bleeding is too heavy for bandages. It can also be used to apply antiseptics.

You should have a first aid kit at home and your car, as well as when you are traveling or outdoors. If anyone in your family plays sports, that would also be a good time to have one handy. You should ensure that your kit has not only the above mentioned essentials, but is also customized to your needs. Once you have to use it, you’ll never regret having it near.

#EDC #Pandemic Kit put on and explained. I love pouches or bags that serve dual purposes. The #HelikonTex #Bandicoot is a waist pack that your can tuckaway and store the straps to make it a pouch that can easily fit inside your #EDCBag, a #MessengerBag, #CarryOnBag OR you can wear it around your waist or across your chest (See attached pictures).

Let me give you a few scenarios then you can determine is this #EPK is for you;

1. Do you #Travel by #Airplane, #Train or Bus? If so, what would you do if EVERYONE started to feel sick, started to hack and cough up a lung? I know what I would do because I have a Pandemic Kit. What is you were smelling engine fumes on plane, what would you do? Now both scenarios have been in the news recently so let’s not act like it doesn’t happen. Can’t duck your head in the sand you have to deal with real-world situations.

2. Do you commute to work on a daily basis using public transportation? If so what would you do if a #BioWeapon was unleashed in a subway station or on a Subway?

3. You have to go visit a friend or family in a hospital during #FluSeason (Hospitals are the 3rd leading cause of death for #Americans) do you go in without having on a Anti-viral Facemask? OR OR do you become one of the 80,000 Americans that died last year because of #Flu?

4. Do you live in #California #Oregon or #Washington where the air quality isn’t that good? Do you carry an N95 facemask to protect your lungs from long-term side effects?

5. Do you work in a factory or facility or office where you share equipment like a xerox machine or power tools that’s been hacked and spit on with micros slobber? If so, do you carry spray disinfectant?

NOW YOU KNOW I COULD GO ON AND ON, I hope you are seeing my point. I’m NOT saying live in fear, I’m saying be Reddie when fear comes your way.

The reason why I like a Waist Pack is for situations where I’m not carrying my #EverydayCarry Bag. For example; Sporting venues, Casinos, Concerts, Seminars or ANY OR ALL Public Events.
