Over the weekend I was talking with my wife’s aunt who lives in Northern California. Although she is in the thick of the California power cuts, she has not prepared for a power outage. When I asked her about it, she had no idea where to even begin, even though she has a high likelihood of losing power multiple times a year.
I can admit that seeing a list of items to buy, and actions to take can be very overwhelming, so much so that you don’t even do anything. So today I am announcing the first 2 Weeks 2 Prepared Challenge. Every 2 days I will post 1 thing to complete. In total there will be 7 items for this particular “challenge”.
Each item will be easy to accomplish, and as straightforward as I can make it. I realize that many people who read this blog are far beyond preparing for a minor power outage. But I also know that each one of you has someone like my aunt-in-law. This series is designed to be a resource for you to share with someone who you know needs it, even if they don’t know it themselves. Hopefully, taking small steps, we can all be a little more prepared for the unexpected.
Feel free to dive in below, after each day’s task is posted I will update the links below, so after this initial 2 weeks you will be able to find every item to complete here.
