Best of Prepared Housewives: Top 10 Preparedness Posts of 2014

Top 10 Preparedness Posts of 2014

Another year has come and gone which is always good (and bad) – because I realize how much I accomplished & didn’t accomplish last year!

I may have fallen short on a lot of things I was hoping to do, but I did finally lose that last 10 lbs that I’ve been trying to get rid of for 15 years! Don’t worry, I’ll tell you my secret…

It’s called the blogging diet – you sit on your bum bum for most of the day, turn any muscle you have into fat (it weighs less), and don’t get up for anything – especially to cook ;) It worked better than I expected.

Top 10 Preparedness Posts of 2014…

    So, another year gone. Another year? Seems like just yesterday I was trying to get used to 2014, now I gotta start over. You said you lost 10 lbs by setting at the computer? Hows that work? I been setting at this puter all year living on coffee and cheeseburgers and I think I found the 10 you lost, want them back? I really don’t need them. Seems like the only thing I accomplished this year is getting a year older. Though I did quit smoking, I wasn’t even trying to do that, bought one of those vaporizer kits,(not the one that looks like a cigarette, the tanks that you put e-juice in kind), 2 weeks later, I gave away the ciggs I had bought, now going on 7 months, don’t even want a cig. Anyway, Good luck on the coming year. I’ll keep voting for you on top sights. Evil.

      Not sure how I missed your comments! Dumb blog!

      Congrats on quitting smoking!!! That’s HUGE!!! That’s way better than losing 10 lbs. I have started working out again and so I’ve put 5 lbs back on. Not sure how that works, but’s it’s annoying.

      And yes, you won the top commenter of the year! Way to go! Not that’s it’s a competition, but kind of ;)
