September Preparedness Month (14)
Continuing with the power outage theme, we have our water squared away and light at the very minimum. Most people have cell phones, our first second priority is to contact the electric provider and get information about the outage and estimated repair time. Our first priority is to make sure that the house and people are safe. Turn off any potential hazards for when the power comes back on, such as the oven, stove top, iron, etc...

Before the age of electronics and when my children were young, I kept boxes of crayons, markers, paper for writing and drawing, board games, playing cards, art supplies, jigsaw puzzles, and lots of books. We were often snowed in come winter and these items were useful to keep kids occupied. Then, now...good idea.
