WHAT, IF ANYTHING, ARE YOU DOING TO PREPARE FOR WHAT SOME THINK ARE VERY TOUGH TIMES AHEAD?
I probably communicate with the people on my homeschool board more than any other group........IRL or cyber. Today I spotted a thread that pulled me right in:
Ok, so I am finally absolutely convinced Americans are going to face VERY rough times
http://welltrainedmind.com/forums/showthread.php?t=245957
and I began to read it because DH had been talking about the same thing the other night at dinner. I paid attention to him for a little while but then realized I had messed up the pick up times for lacrosse practice and I flew out the door.
Coupled with the fact that we have not had tv broadcasted into our house in a year (see previous post), I am totally clueless to some extent about these coming TOUGH TIMES. I read the thread cited above, I jotted down the title of a book recommended by an individual on the board for whom I have the utmost respect, asked some questions, and now am asking here:
WHAT, IF ANYTHING, ARE YOU DOING TO PREPARE FOR WHAT SOME THINK ARE VERY TOUGH TIMES AHEAD?
Honestly, I think I personally will have to take it a little bit further than 'maybe I won't buy a new dress to wear to Brunch on Sunday.'
WHAT ABOUT YOU?
I intend to read every single comment -- I am going to somehow plan a giveaway around this -- I will announce those details later -- perhaps a $50. American Express Gift Card (or a card of the Winner's choosing) -- that would buy a fair amount of canned goods - and no, I am not being snarky.
I am going to give away a $50. Gift Card to a randomly selected individual who comments legitimately
(SPAM will not be considered)
I will announce winner on the blog on Tuesday night, February 22, 2011 and provide contact instructions for them. Thanks and good luck!
And, just in case you are as clueless about this as I was, here are some links that you may find helpful:
The Backyard Homestead and Country Wisdom and Know How
The link to Amazon is a publication recommended by someone whose opinion I highly respect.
