I need to get some facemasks...

I did add some more food to the pantry, tossed a couple hundred rounds of ammo into the gun safe, and beefed up my wife's BOB with a new flashlight and fresh water.

We went to REI today (always a dangerous thing), my wife ended up with two new pair of "outdoorsie" shoes, I got a new Camelbak hydration pack, a double handfull of those neat little pocket sized flip-top plastic containers, and a packet of Micropur tablets...

I bought/filled four, five and seven gallon water jugs and treated the water with bleach. I also bought three cases of 500 ml water bottles and started a supply of canned foods for my 72 hour kit.

I have spent way too much time working on my PSK's, so this month I started working on my house kit.

Traded for some new MREs for the BOBs. Used my REI rebate and 20% coupon off to buy the large JetBoil pot. Replaced water puri tabs in the BOBs. Got all the magazines accounted for and organized.

Bought 3 butane/propane lanterns + 1 mini-stove + a few gas canisters, to enhance my Bug-In possibilities.

Stored in the basement, half a dozen empty 5liters mineral water bottles replenished with tap water (+ a few drops of bleach). Next month, another half a dozen will join these.

Started to clean/tidy-up my "office"/guest/working... and for last 10 months .. junk room, which I had not done for a looooooooooooooong time ..
If I keep going at it, tomorrow I should be able to extricate my reloading bench from that jumble and next week, I'll be able to shoot my Colt .45ACP again !!

Also started my paracord project : a bottle holder.
Next I will "weave", still using Slatt's knot, some A4 sized "sheet" of paracord (like the crocheted one someone showed in another thread)
