Basic regular and NPH insulin you don't have to have a prescription for even though it can be deadly in extreme amounts. The stronger humalog and lantus you did the last time I checked. I have actually gone to Walmart and paid $20 out of pocket for a bottle of regular insulin because I forgot mine at home and work is about an hour away. It is still in the refrig at work as a backup. The only thing I have noticed is that lantus goes bad a lot faster at room temp than any other insulin I have taken over the years. About 20-25 days. It will keep years in the fridge though. One thing you have to be very careful changing bottles due to potency issues. I have actually gotten a new batch of Lantus and had low BS the first 3nights I took it until I made adjustments.

I have always said that!!!! At the first sign of breakdown I am hitting up every Pharmacy in 100 radius!!!!!LOL Another thing I just thought of is to make sure you rotate your syringes because they will go bad with time. I have found that keeping them in a vehicle in the summer time quickens this process. I have syringes that are years old. What tends to happen is the plunger dries out and as you draw insulin you get air from behind the plunger and insulin can leak out as you inject.

You seem to have a good handle on things for your situation. I have been type I diabetic for over 30 years and have seen the change in treatment change in the past that you can't imagine. The thing that saved me drastically was a research study called the DCCT in origination now called the DCCT/EDIC. Being part of this study changed my life drastically. As a teen I went to the doctor in Memphis(2hour drive) for over 15 years. Controlling bs when you are young creates longterm cell memory that will delay complications later in life. I am over 40 and don't have many problems compared to diabetics my age an length of illness. As far as EOTWAWKI, I have about a year worth of supplies stockpiled and hope that allows me to get my family set up in a stable community( I have a friend. After that I will see and let you know. Good luck to you. Tell your son/daughter that a happy healthy life is possible. Will they mess up? Yes. Correct it as soon as possible. Kudos to you for being prepared.

I agree. I have a tran heat pump backed up with 2 sets of gas logs. This works very well considering one set of logs( the ones used the most are in the basement) I have logs that keep it about 65 in the basement, which is the only heat source down there and heat pump on main level. Very manageable utility bills and only fill propane tank in summer when price is down. JTM We the People of the United States, in order to form a more Perfect Union......

I have about 7 acres of woods that are mostly hardwood. I cut a couple of trees a year for the fire pit. I use a cheap Poulan and it is a good saw for playing around the house. I hand split all of mine with a 6 lb maul. I have a 8 pounder but rarely use it. I enjoy splitting wood more than any other "chore" JTM We the People of the United States, in order to form a more Perfect Union......

I live way out in the woods and have 2 100lb dogs in the window barking as I go to the door armed. They usually like to talk in the yard. JTM We the People of the United States, in order to form a more Perfect Union......

I am having the same conflict. You can get a dpms m4 from Walmart right now for $617 +tax and bc. I don't think I can build one for that. The only real advantage I see to building your own is that I can buy parts a little at a time and assemble when complete. It is hard to come up with $700 lump sum with 2 kids in college. I can swing $100 here and $100 there. JTM We the People of the United States, in order to form a more Perfect Union......

Had a friend many years ago with a pair of labs that were bad about that. She drank bud light and her bf drank bud. One lab drank bud and one drank BL. The bad part is I drink miller lite so the dogs would knock over my beer and then not drink it. Rule to learn. Don't leave your beer where the dogs could get to it.

Honestly, use iron sights. More fun easier to acquire targets and will make you a crack shot in no time. If you are hunting for food more than sport get a good long barrel shot gun. Otherwise good iron sights. I have 2 22lr guns one with scope for target and one for squirrels with iron sights. A lot more fun.

I will tell you that if you want a serious complaint filed with Walmart, you must call there 800 number. By calling cust. Srv you create a paper trail within the Corporate office that has to be followed up with you by management. It does not mean the person will get fired unless it is something major. If you just tell a manager, the employee may never hear anything about it. Swept under rug. It never actually happened if you don't all 800 number.

I kinda resent the fact that someone stated that all salesmen make more money the better they lie. Poor salesmen do lie to there customers. Good salesmen help a customer make an informed decision. Being a salesman, it really makes it hard to help someone make an informed decision when they assume you are lying to them. A salesman who lies has the same problem as a person that lies.

Mike got in some trouble a few years ago and is no longer available. Someone in his family when he went away and was still open a couple of years ago but now sure if now. It seems to me that I recall someone telling me about a fire sale there some months ago. I will find out tomorrow from one of the guys that used to pick stuff up from there for me. The last thing that I got from them was a can of 7.62x54r for $60 and that was a deal. That has been 2 years ago. JTM We the People of the United States, in order to form a more Perfect Union......

I have two 100lb pit bulls snoring at the foot of my bed snoring as I type this. It would take gunfire to get past them and by then I would be fully awake. I will never forget the day my wife woke me by shooting squirrel from the back deck with a 12ga right outside our window. Needless to say I was hot.

I am a hunter but don't hunt animals that I don't care to eat. I did stalk a mountain lion in southwest TX for about a month at my cousins hunting camp when I lived down there. The want to kill him/her was to help with the hunting. We fed her very well for several years with our leftovers. Then we got to finding leftovers from deer we didn't kill. I tracked and never saw her and might be glad. JTM We the People of the United States, in order to form a more Perfect Union......
