    Hello from the Midwest...

    Just wanted to pop in and introduce myself.

    I am a single mom to three kids -- two teenagers and one just a bit younger. We live in the Midwest -- effected by all the Seasons, tornados, some flooding in our area. We live just outside a large city (which is more and more making me nervous).

    I have been reading online for months about prepping and am obviously still learning. I have started putting away water and food. I am looking for book suggestions and any other suggestions anyone has to offer a mom on a single income (no support) with 3 active kids.

    Thanks,

    WG

    Welcome from Georgia
    I'm new here, too. Been on this forum for about a month now.
    From my limited experience I can say the the folks here are quick to welcome you into the fold, share their knowledge and not condesend to us 'newbies'. I've read a lot of excellent articles/blogs and watched some very informative videos here.

    I hope your experience here is as good as mine....welcome and hope to hear from you often.

    Don't be shy to ask questions, but please try the search function first :-)

            Welcome from Michigan! Prepping can be VERY expensive but if anyone can stretch a dollar then I bet its a mom with teenagers. Try "Emergency Food Storage and Survival Handbook" by Peggy Layton and How to Survive the End of the World as we Know it" by John Wesley Rawles. " The Preppers Pocket Guide" by Bernie Carr isn't bad either.
