The Simple Way To Sharpen Your Razors, Men

What started out as a great Wednesday shortly turned into a bloody mess.  The short version of the story is that Shelly, aka the Survival Husband, decided to touch up his bald head with a dull razor blade.  What happened next was a scrape about one and a half inches long and a half-inch wide.  Who would have thought that so much blood could pour out of such a small wound.

I grabbed some gauze to soak up what I could, then dabbed on some boo-boo stick followed by miracle slave.  While he held a clean piece of gauze in place, I grabbed the first aid kit and used a chunk of 1″ stretch wrap bandage aka “Vet Wrap” to hold the gauze in place.  Although he looked like a dork for the rest of the day, the bleeding stopped and we were able to remove the makeshift bandage at bedtime.

This keeps things simple and does the job.  Sounds like you have a good handle on things.

Speaking of food storage, DM Walsh offers the following tip for preventing rodents from chewing through your food storage buckets:

The trick with plastic buckets is to pack your food in Mylar bags and then store those bags in the plastic buckets.

Mice won’t chew into buckets that don’t smell like food, and sealed Mylar bags don’t smell anything like food to them. Yes, technically you can just put food in Mylar then put it on a shelf, but the buckets add a lot of puncture protection in case things start crashing down during an earthquake or similar event.
