Look behind you in that dark corner.
The last three years have been a little slice of hell, but I'm still alive sort of... 500$ more, and I'll be out of debt again until the next disaster destroys everything I hold dear. boo f-bomb hoo, it sucks being me, but YOU get to read about it while I attempt to rebuild my life and an utterly shattered prepping program. a brand new army surplus store just moved into town, I needed to get rid of all that Vietnam-era stuff anyway. so for all you new guys just getting started, I've had to do this three times in my life now, I know what works, and I've learned what I need and what I don't. forget what you want when prepping or you'll just end up selling it for half price when life goes down the poop pipe.

I believe that's part of life. Sometimes it's 1 step forward & 2 steps back, sometimes 2 steps forward & one step back & if your lucky, sometimes it's 3 steps forward. You just have to hang on until those 3 steps forward. It took me 35 years for everything to come together.

My motto is that you just have to hang on until it turns....unless your married to my ex & then your better off dead.
 
so what has happened to you? Did the hurricane destroy all your preps and trailer?
Kind of. I had to buy TWO cars, a power outage destroyed most of my canned foods during an extra cold night, more water trouble, electrical issues, several trips to the hospital, my health insurance company crapping on me, and finally a dose of COVID I just now mostly got over. this little trip to hell has cost me big time, I wasn't even recovered good from the last one! I'll be missing my blazer and that safe full of guns. Maybe I can get built back up before I get squashed again.

Sorry about all your recent bad experiences. Perhaps it's time for a change of name/persona from Magus to Charioteer for better luck and control of circumstances.
