The Survival Mom

melbo · May 12, 2010

Found a pretty cool site that some of you Moms (and Mr. Moms) might find interesting.

Deep inside every mom is a Survival Mom whose passion for her family drives her to make the best of the present and prepare for the future. I share that passion along with a long-standing, slightly crazed fascination with natural disasters, survival stories and preparing for the unknown. This drives my husband, the Paranoid Dad, crazy.

Let’s get acquainted!
I’m a forty-something mother of two homeschooled children and wife to a busy, self-employed husband. We live in the greater Phoenix area, also known as Hell’s Waiting Room!

I spent nine years as a classroom teacher, four years as a teacher mentor, and have had the same home-based sales business for nearly 17 years. Prior to my professional career, I believe I set a world record for holding the most part-time jobs during my high school and college years!

I love Mexican food, a slightly messy house, my big ole white Tahoe, blogging and reading good spy thrillers.

Why read my blog?
Technically, the future has always been uncertain. I mean, a massive earthquake could take out half of the United States at any moment, I suppose. What makes right now different is the uncertainty on so many levels: the economy, national security, natural disasters, and a world increasingly filled with threats against our country.

If you’ve been stashing away a few groceries every week or researching how to make a solar powered generator, you’re not alone! I hope you’ll find reassurance and practical help here on my blog. Our concerns for the present and future can be channeled into actions that will help provide for and protect our families while still enjoying the heck out of life!

I've done a couple of guest articles for Lisa (The Survival Mom) and I can say she's a great lady.

She runs a great site and is always available to help people.

Also she has had several appearances in the mainstream media (several TV news stories and several major web stories, AOL, Yahoo, that sort of thing)

Her and her husband do to a great job of showing people that preppers are just regular people who want to protect their families.

Highly recommend
