What Did You Do To Prepare This Week?

It was a pretty good week here. Ordered the majority of the stuff for Project AR Upgrade as well as some rifle plates. Hit the gym, did some running and ended up losing almost a pound. Put some energy into getting the first version of my GHB reestablished as well as the car kit. Also we picked up a bunch of food to put away.

I'm going to give something new a shot. Talking about my goals for the upcoming week here may help me think through what I want to do the next week and then stay accountable for that.

This week in terms of fitness I plan to lift 3x, run 3x and ruck twice. Going to work on solidifying the GHB and car kit. I am thinking a pretty stripped down get home bag that is sort of an EDC/GHB blend. Just grabbing it every day (or leaving it in the car) is a simple option. For longer trips a heavier dedicated kit will come along. That is however a topic for another day. Also I am going to order some stuff. Been doing some looking and am still trying to prioritize. Might just pull the trigger on a War Belt. Then again there is some long overdue stuff. Also I need to do a review on the Solo Stove which is a pretty cool piece of kit. If I get really motivated I will try to finish up our emergency food box.

Well that is what I have been up to and what should be coming up this week. What did you do to prepare this week?

I bought a standing toolbox and organized my tools. Now I don't have to search for a tool when I need it. Before the stuff was between three boxes and two places. Now it's all in one convenient spot. I apparently have a lot of screwdrivers that I didn't realize I had.

Also I researched lots of subject matter to better prepare myself to complete a list of tasks I know I need to do but have no idea how to do them.

I ordered 10 pack of AR-15 mags on sale, another 500 rounds of .223 on sale too. Bought 20 pieces of mixed Hardside storage cases, some were Hardigg cases, I was lucky on this deal. Researched some more on how to convert my digital safe to manual dial combination; however my local locksmiths quoted about $360 for the conversion, as I may try to convert it myself, after watching YouTube videos on how to do it, as the manual dial hardware is about $120. Before you buy a safe, please ensure you buy a good gun safe and do your research, as I did find a nice video on YouTube which educated me tremendously. Downloaded some books on survival/prepping on the kindle app on IPad & IPhone. Procured more long-term foods and hardware. Picked up some starting fluid too. Getting ready to do some reloading for the winter project and dusted off both the Dillon presses. Being winter is coming; I will probably begin rotating my fuel supply this week, as I do this time of year always. Most importantly, I mailed my ballot. I am thinking I need to start organizing my prep supplies better, I am starting to look like a hoarder LOL!

I almoѕt never lеave a гesρonsе, but afteг brοwsing а few of the responѕes on "What Did You Do To Prepare This Week?".
I do have a couρle of questions fοr you if it's okay. Is it simply me or do some of these responses come across like they are written by brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are posting at other online social sites, I would like to keep up with you. Could you make a list of the complete urls of all your public pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
