14 Tips For Staying Calm During A Disaster (#7 will surprise you!)

[Lilburner]

I modeled the title after those annoying clickbait lists, but it's not one of those/ Just a straightforward prepping piece.

#7 truly will surprise you, though. "Avoid Caffeine". It kind of makes sense in the long run, but it's going to suck getting there. Coffee is my one addiction and I suck at prepping it. I use so much and it's so expensive and I just never seem to have enough. It's tied for my least favorite things about the apocalypse, I think - firefights and running out of coffee. Well, pestilence, I guess. Never-ending darkness in the case of some forms of apocalypse. OK, there's a lot of things that would suck, but running out of coffee would be one.

Hmmmmm, I'm thinking I don't want to even deal with most of this crowd WITHOUT coffee - and that includes myself, lol!

Coffee?  No big deal for me.  Drink it rarely and even then not much.  Iced Tea (no sugar) is more my cup.  If there is none I think I would try many variations of dried leaves.  Should I find a box of tea bags, I would wrassle a small bear for them.  The size of box and time since I had a good glass would have an impact on the increasing size of bear who would be in danger.

Funny.........I actually though about this over a year ago and have since weaned myself off of caffeine.........the headaches sucked.......I used to be one of those people that drank coffee all day long......now I have 2 or 3 cups a week......I still prep some good old instant coffee for barter and also just for general purpose.  I am really thinking about trying to grow tea.......I know we can do it in out climate and I like tea..........

#1 should be "Keep Calm & Pray".

#7.....I'm with Starlady- Caffeine is an absolute must & plenty of it!
