I was living in the eastern part of the United States when t eh blackout hit, and could not believe it lasted so long (was it 5 days? the more I tell the story, the longer the "days without electricity" become...)
A few things I do every night for emergency and safety preparedness is:
- Find my car keys if not in my purse. My shoes, purse, glasses, wallet, keys are all in one area.
- Clear toys and other clutter from walk-ways.
- Flashlight plugged in and in the hallway, on the way to front door.
- We haven't created an official will, but do have a printed one from the web with our wishes for our child...just in case. Our parents each have one, and we've talked about our wishes with them in advance.
