    Water may have a shelf life but you can always boil it or treat it and recover it. Store as much water and food as you can and when you think you have too much then you need more. Beans, Bullets, Band-Aids (Band-Aids includes extra meds and prescriptions) as well as tools to sort out fires like extinguishers and fire blankets. These are a great start to being not prepared but self sufficient as when the balloon goes up or the weather comes down YOU are your own first responder and you better be ready. We make it a game here. If the hydro flickers my son jumps up and grabs the flashlight of his choice and then checks on Grandma to make sure she has hers ready. Teaching them to look out for others. It is a lifestyle and I am all for it

Like to figure out the best place to keep things or a thing. I have experience but like listening to talks for newbs because I learn something basic I didn't already know.

    An idea, when you get your woodstove installed attach some metal pipes to the top with metal strapping or various other methods. Then use the rechargeable fan to blow air thru pipes to circulate your warm, toasty air throughout the house.

    I was in a Tornado. I was watching Braddock Missing in Action 3 at approx 6 pm. The sky was green and yellow and sunny. All the sudden....it sounded like 68 AKMs with M43 ball smackin' the trees and a concrete wall.
    It was the sound of Hardwood trees snapping.
    At this point....I knew that I had to run outside with my friends for kicks and observation.
    Shingles were flying past my head at 60 mph+.
    My mom came outside and said "Get INSIDE NOOOWW"..
    We then went inside and into the basement. My sister was crying because she is a baby.
    The end. Oh yeah it was 1996 and I was 11. AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!!!!!

    Preparing... planning. There's a difference. You can't prepare, until you've planned. Sadly, most people miss that fact. They're walking into a shitshow with a woodstove, pantry, and a checklist thinking they're ready. It's not the plan that holds the value, but the act of planning. Collecting intelligence, exploring what-ifs, developing contingencies, etc. It gives you confidence and tells you how to prepare.

One is enough. That being said you should at all times be prepared to be your own first responder, have backups , for power, water and food and be able to save and defend yourself, your family and your neighbours.
