Funny things about first aid kits - I've got so many, I forget where they are. My dad forgot his phone yesterday when we drove from the suburbs to the lake. So, when we got back here, I decided to search my Expedition to see if maybe he did bring it with. As I looked into the center console, what do I find but one of those cheap-o CVS first aid kits. I had completely forgotten I had that one. So, I pulled it out and looked inside - I haven't used anything in it. The only things I need to add to it will be some gauze rolls, a tourniquet, and a CPR mask.
This makes 3 first aid kits, 1 trauma kit, and 1 kit with the various medications we may need (migraine, allergy, cold, etc.) in the vehicle. ๐
You can never have too many first aid kits???

We had a good day yesterday. It was Little Man's first wake in several years, and I had prepared him about what it would be like. He was a freaking rockstar, you guys. He walked in with my dad, went up to the friend who's wife died, shook his hand and said he would miss "Miss Sue," then he went with my dad to the kneeler, looked at Sue, blessed himself and said a prayer.
Our friend's stepson and grandkids wouldn't even come near the coffin, and they're the ones who wanted the wake. So, I'm going to be a bit obnoxious and pat myself on the back because my almost 5 year old handled things better than the teenage grandkids of the woman who died.

I'm currently writing a speech for a "Prepping Without Panic" presentation I'm giving in 18 days...and Imposter Syndrome is REALLY setting in. There is no need for it, but it's making me really doubt my ability to get up there and speak to who knows HOW many people about this, even though it is something I live and breathe. This sucks you guys, but I'm going to keep on writing, and hope that once it's written and I practice it as much as I possibly can, that the feeling will go away!
