There’s nothing like a little outdoor relaxation when the weather gets warm, but if traditional hammocks are just a bit too difficult and uncomfortable for you, you can make a sturdier hammock-like hanging chair out of tree branches.

It takes a lot of work to put together, but it’s more tedious work than it is difficult—as long as you’re comfortable cutting up a few tree branches, you shouldn’t have too much trouble with the rest. You just need to cut them into 2″ long pieces, drill a hole through each one, and thread your hammock string through. You’ll get something like the above picture, which is more comfortable than a regular chair or swing, but not quite as absurd as a regular hammock. Hit the link below to see a full how-to.

This model has been UV wrapped and Texture Mapped allowing you to easily customize the look and feel of the model to suit your needs. * Make sure you download the Photoshop files to do this.*

(3DS and XML file may need to have textures ‘re-loaded’ due to Cinema’s conversion process. This is easily done with the naming structure of the files and textures)

Model is perfect for close-up and mid range shots for that rustic farm / country scene.

The first is the Family Disaster Supplies and Preparedness Calender. After reading below, click the link to open up the Calender.

The Family Disaster Supplies & Preparedness Calendar is intended to help you take appropriate preparedness actions and create a 3–7 day disaster supply kit before the next emergency happens. Using the calendar, your family can assemble an emergency kit in small steps over a six month period. Check off each of the items you collect or the actions you take during the week. Supplies may be stored all together in a large plastic garbage can with wheels, putting the heavy items at the bottom.

When medical supplies, flashlights and emergency items are placed near the top, they can be located quickly for inspecting and restocking. Remember to rotate your perishable supplies and change water every six months.

Review this calendar every six months. For example, each time you change your clock, review this list.

Note: You should store 1–2 gallons of water per person for each day. This water is for consumption and sanitation. For this reason the calendar repeats the need to purchase water several times.

You could even go a step further and add a dab of vaseline or chap-stick to your cotton to make it easier to burn. If this isn’t up your alley, maybe some char cloth is a better addition to your kit, but it’s a high-maintenance option. Aside from a lighter or some matches, how do you make sure your emergency kit can always start a fire? Share your survival tips in the comments below.

I don’t know WHY I didn’t figure this out sooner!

I use shampoo in the shower. When I wash my hair, the shampoo runs down my whole body, and printed very clearly on the shampoo label is this warning,

“FOR EXTRA VOLUME AND BODY”

No wonder I have been gaining weight!

Well! I have gotten rid of that shampoo and I am going to start showering with Dawn dish soap instead.

Its label reads,

“DISSOLVES FAT THAT IS OTHERWISE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE”

Problem solved!

If I don’t answer the phone, I’ll be in the shower!

“A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy. “It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves.

“One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, self-doubt, and ego.

“The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.

“This same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.”

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, “Which wolf will win?”

The old chief simply replied, “The one you feed.”
