Some people only have a burned out light bulb in their refrigerator!
We ordered a whole house generator in January, and are still waiting for the installation. There’s a backlog on those types of items.
Before moving to Florida in December, I’d watch crowds of people buying water, flashings, gasoline, food, and other supplies at the last minute. Those people live “hand to mouth” and they live their lives being unprepared.
When my gas tank reaches half full, I fill up the tank. I’ve been doing that since high school for over 50 years, when I first started driving. I’ve never run out of gas, except with the test drive of my first car that I bought. During the test drive, the car ran out of gas right in front of a gas station that was next door to the used car dealer. Over the years, I’ve seen many fools that run out of gas. Those fools always wait till their gas tank is empty before they think about filling it up to half full.
