Emergency Prepardness

My work is a wonderful environment. Every 6 weeks we have a company wide wellness challenge intended to help us build healthy habits in our lives.
The past challenge took me by surprise because it is all about EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS.
I'll admit it, in a teeny tiny baby apartment, it is HARD to make room for emergency supplies but we decided to take this opportunity to make it a priority.
Because you never know when there will be an unexpected zombie apocalypse natural disaster!
After a lot of planning, I put together a couple of 72 hour kits for the mister and I.
I made a list of the expiration dates for all the food items to include in our family binder so I know when to switch items out.
Everything is packed separately in gallon sized ziplock bags to protect them from water damage. We store everything inside of a backpack to make them easy to grab and carry in case of an emergency. 
It took a lot of planning to get everything prepared and organized but the peace of mind is well worth the effort!
