As long as you operate under VFR, you can get yourself current again with
just a safety pilot (unless the safety pilot is able and willing to act as
PIC under IFR).

At which point he's not a safety pilot, he's the pilot in command.
Safety pilots only have regulatory menaing for simulated instrument
flight.
