Get Real – Get Prepared
- Hubby and me
This Saturday, June 23, at 7pm EST Silver Oak and I will be interviewed on Preparedness Radio Network by Vickilynn Haycraft, author, teacher, speaker, and hostess of “Get Real – Get Prepared!” What an honor! We will be sharing how we came to be living a lifestyle of preparedness with our six children on this 20 acre off-grid homestead. We will also be talking about our newly revised book How to Prepare a Family Emergency Food Storage Plan: Giving the Frugal Family Confidence to Survive in the Face of a Crisis. (Editor’s note: If you missed it listen here: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/doctorprepper/2012/06/23/get-real–get-prepared-with-vickilynn-haycraft. Also, if you don’t have a Kindle and want to download our book to your computer, find instructions here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_pcland_stinst?nodeId=200450200&#installing).
We’d love to have you join us! Actually, the broadcast is already recorded because we will be just returning from Ohio where we are participating in an orphan awareness event called “No Longer Alone.” If you didn’t read about that check out my last post. But we plan to be in the chat room during the broadcast, and we’d love to have you there as well!
I haven’t participated in chat rooms much (not the most techy person around) so I had to ask Vickilynn how to do it. I’m already signed in so when the time comes I’ll be ready. Here are the instructions:
Click on this link to the show page: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/doctorprepper/2012/06/23/get-real–get-prepared-with-vickilynn-haycraft
At the top of the page on the right, you will see SIGN IN.
Click on that and it will take you to a sign in page. To the right of the sign in form is a registration form (in the middle of the page).
Create an account by filling it out with your user name and password.
Use that same username and password when you come back Saturday night and you’ll get into the chat room.
You can also just listen to the show without joining in the chat, if you prefer.
If you miss the show you can listen to it later by clicking on the same link anytime after it airs.
It can also be downloaded as an Mp3.
Make sense? We’re excited about this opportunity to be part of a larger group of Believers who are encouraging people to prepare.
Vickilynn is the author of Wrapping It Up! Making Sensational, All-Occasion Wrappers and Fabulous Family Meals and co-author of Naturally Healthy Cuisine, Real Food for Real Families.

Hi! I am enjoying your blog and your off grid adventures. My daughter and her husband are trying to adopt a baby! They have not been able to have their own after years of trying and then discovering ovarian cancer. The Lord is good, it was discovered early because of no baby! Your beautiful family gives me hope for her. On a side note, I have a curious/nosy question. I noticed all you lovely ladies always wear skirts. Why is that? I hope you don’t mind me asking.

I pray the Lord blesses your daughter with the desires of her heart!
About our skirts…I don’t mind you asking.
Our goal is to honor and embrace God’s loving design for us as women/girls by wearing clothing that is feminine and modest, as well as functional. At times, depending on the activity, the girls wear loosely flowing culottes as well.
I think that is wonderful. Skirts are usually so much more comfortable that pants!
I agree…and I’ve noticed when we are dressed like ladies we act more like ladies.
Hi Rose PEtal,
I read your blog and have it in my RSS google page, ya! I love it BTW. I am listening to your preparedness radio talk and am LOVING IT. I am in FL too and just really admire you guy for living off grid and living here (hotness) off grid. Conrats to you guys. you should teach classes o this. I would love to get out property off grid someday.
Thanks for the encouragement Bobbi. I think it would be fun to teach it some day. First we need to get ourselves set up a little better, growing more of our food, etc. But hopefully some day…
And we do have a small a/c in the camper and in the house, but can’t run them all the time and the one in the house doesn’t keep it really cool if it’s really hot. I thought I would die without a/c, but so far I’m still alive.
