Day 16 of Blogtober 2026 and today the topic is to share My Autumn Survival Kit.
Before we start I suppose I have two kits, my at home kit and my handbag. My handbag has always been used not only for the general things like phone, keys and purse. It has always had dual purpose for carrying other things, even my husband would give me his wallet to take care of at times.

At Home
If you are anything like me you will literally have something to cover any medical problem at home. I also always update my survival kits depending on the time of the year. For example in the summer it will include sting and bite cream, aloe vera etc
When the seasons change I am there updating my survival kit . In my Autumn kit you will find
- Pain Relief
- Flu Relief – capsules or powders
- Tissues
- Vapour Rub
- Lemon Juice and Honey – for hot honey and lemon for coughs and colds
- Vitamins
- Cough Syrup
- Thermometer
I always make sure these are in the house as you just never know when you will come down with something. The last thing you will want is to drag yourself to the shops
My Handbag Survival Kit
I always get moaned at for the weight of my handbag. Along with the usual purse, keys phone etc I also have my little survival kit I carry around with me. This has always helped me and others in the past.
- Hairbrush
- Lip Balm
- Tissues
- Lip Gloss
- Hand Sanitiser
- Pain Relief
- Plasters

So many times I have come to the rescue of friends and family when we are out. I have a little pouch that I keep everything in and swap from bag to bag.
