Today I go on a tear about sticking to principles when the sticking gets tough. Tales from the Prepper Pantry Found about 10 more steaks! Ready to consolidate freezers down to two Fridge for sale Freeze Drying Basil and other herbs Operation Independence Lodge Warehouse Sale The Bathtub Main topic of the Show: Principles Today started with a video of a OBGYN from a year ago about an anti abortion bill that would charge Dr.’s with murder who do not attempt to re-implant ectopic pregnancies. This is a pregnancy where the egg does not make it to the uterus. And this got me to thinking about big picture principles and how we tend to take discourse from principles to extreme examples in an effort to “win” the argument on issues.

Today, I will talk about a few interesting things: Lessons learned from working with an overseas assistant; and some thoughts on developing personal self-reliance when life feels too busy to get anything done. Stump the Sauce From Jenni: How do I deal with self-reliance overwhelm? How do you deal with self-reliance overwhelm?  I'm making a list of skills I want to learn, but I get overwhelmed every time I visit it. What's the most important? What's something I actually want to learn? How much should I invest when I don't know if it suits my long term goals?  The evaluation process just leaves me with more questions, but the biggest is in becoming self reliant on my own... How do I find the time to do it all by myself?   I understand time management and prioritizing but I'm also a single parent with other responsibilities and challenges.  Thanks for any input Definition:  Self Reliant Self Sufficient Thoughts on Resilient Lifestyle Design Resources TSP Episode on Self Reliance and Self Sufficiency http://w

Ever think about going back to the land? Well today, I am joined by Matt Hundley, musician, youtuber, and founder of the Back to the Land Festival happening right here in Tennessee in October! Upcoming Events:Sept 18 Green Chili Day Oct 14-16 Back to the Land Festival But first: From a Covid Nurse This is reality for me, I’m not debating vaccination vs non vaccination here at all so just don’t . I see both vaccinated and unvaccinated on the vents and dying so the whole you think your safe just because your vaccinated is a farce. It may help keep you in the lower severity category but once on the vent it all ends pretty much the same.  I wish I had answers to make this horrific nightmare stop. Eventually this will be endemic and not a pandemic , eventually we will be back in the drivers seat and not at the mercy of a .3% mortality rate virus. We still have 400,000 to die in this country before we have met our .3% . I think Delta is going to get us to that number a little faster. There isn’t room for anything e

Because you've set a value for garlic that you'll honor no mater what, even if you have elastic demand for garlic. For instance, say she plants an entire lawn of garlic and brings it to the pa
