Peace of mind is very important and often hard to secure. One of the very best ways to have peace of mind in uncertain times is to understand the advantages of prepaid energy versus energy on credit.
Simply put, any energy sources that can be purchased in advance can be stored at least for the short term. Should a storm devastate your area, block roads, or bring down power lines, prepaid energy can be a lifesaver. The more prepaid energy one has, the longer we can hold out while recovery efforts are underway.

Grew up in the 60's on a farm.
Trips to town were planned, just so the pantry was kept filled with staples. We stored enough for several months or a year, buying when things were 'in season.'
Huge garden, enough potatoes to last through February, because the turnups in the winter wheat field would fill in for the rest of the winter. We begged for more potatoes... even though they were more work for a good storage arrangement. We did not want 'a fungus among us.' Old family saying.

dsimpson: You lived the practical life. How far was it to town, and if you don't mind my asking, were you in prime potato country in the Prairies, or in the States? Do you still enjoy a turnip now and then? Thanks for commenting.

My smart phone has a tethering app that enables me to plug the phone into the USB port, accessing the net while charging the phone battery.

BSmith:
15 miles of very hilly 2 lane after a mile of dirt. In Oklahoma, USA. Called 'flat land,' in actuality it's low rolling hills. My dad surveyed I35 and the lowering of the hills and uplift of the valleys over the long haul saved a lot of money in fuel. And you can see for miles.
No, I don't care for turnips that much, but I still love potatoes. We still plant them for mom (and the cows to munch on the greens through the cold months.)
We still have the farm and still raise cattle. The land across the road is a field of veggies for a small truck farm op. I pay him $20 a year to glean the ripe stuff the pickers leave behind. And so, I still can and eat fresh all summer. I'm a very slim, healthy 64 year old with years ahead. 😊
