I’m somewhat of a “prepper”. Most of you will understand what I mean by that. For those of you that don’t, a prepper is someone who prepares for a disaster.
I don’t go to extremes, but I see nothing wrong with being a good Girl Scout or Boy Scout and preparing yourself for an emergency.
I’ve mentioned this to people in the past and they scoff. I don’t understand this. What’s wrong with having a flashlight and batteries on hand or an extra can of beans and some water?
People that refuse to have even just the bare essentials in preparation of an emergency just baffle me.
I know there are people that go to extreme. I like to think I fall in the middle somewhere.
What’s your take on this? Are you a “Prepper”?
