Freshen Your Kit

Today, check over all your kits and replace any old items.

  • travel supplies
  • emergency kit (home, car)
  • personal supplies in your desk at work
  • sundries in your backpack or purse
  • ...

Don't forget to rotate out the water bottles for your emergency supply.

Also test your smoke alarm while you're confirming the batteries in those flashlights.

I emptied out my backpack today and repacked it.

Wow, it's possible to accumulate a lot of cruft and then carry it around with you every day for a long time.
