photo of the day

in the winter:

We tend to feel sleepier and crave more rest
We experience lower energy levels from less sunlight
We feel less motivated and withdrawn
Cold weather slows circulation, making us feel chilled
We experience more aches and stiffness
Our bodies naturally seek moments of stillness and reflection
This is normal. You are wintering.

hope you have a great day!

How 2025 Tested America: ask a prepper …“As 2025 comes to a close, one thing is clear to anyone paying attention: this was not a year of stability or reassurance. It was a year that tested Americans’ patience, finances, freedoms, and sense of security. For those of us in the prepping community, it was also a year of grim validation. What many dismissed for years as “paranoia” or “overthinking” became everyday conversation at kitchen tables across the country. Families worried about grocery bills. Retirees watched savings lose value. Parents questioned whether their communities were still safe. Power outages, supply disruptions, political chaos, and government overreach became routine headlines rather than rare emergencies.” …a government at war with itself, the shutdown that hit working Americans first, healthcare costs become a political casualty, protests/immigration enforcement/public unrest, survival/economy/national stability, food prices and a strained supply chain, federal aid for farmers/limited relief for consumers, and more …”What does this mean for you?  It means 2025 reinforced the reason prepping exists in the first place. Stability can no longer be assumed, and dependence carries real risk. If this year taught us anything, it’s that prepping is about being ready for reality as it is.
