Where Most People Vacation: Hurricane Preparedness Kit!

Hi! I hope you're having a great week so far! If you haven't received my "Wednesdays With Wendy" Newsletter, please click the link to the right to be subscribed! Here are a few items that were featured in the newsletter this week...

Hurricane Preparedness Kit-

* Battery-operated radio

* Canned goods and can opener, fruits and vegetables and other foods that do not require refrigeration.

* Water (at least one gallon daily per person with a seven-day supply). You can also fill up bathtubs if you close or seal the drains.

* Bleach. In the event that water enters your home, you will need to get it out and then kill any microbes that remain.

* Take highly-valued items with you or, for those items staying in the home, wrap in plastic or place in plastic bags. Even if you are riding out the storm, consider placing photos, insurance papers and other important papers in sealed bags.

* Corded phone. Even if your electricity is out, your telephone may still work. Cordless phones still require electricity, so plug in a corded phone, and you may be surprised.

* Cell phone and extra charged batteries. Some of the "Self Powered Radios" and "Self Powered Flashlights" allow you to keep your cell phone charged. IF the cell phone towers are damaged, destroyed, cell phones will be no good.

* ADC to AC inverter.

* Pre-moistened towelettes.

* Battery-powered fans will be very appreciated if the power is out.

* Lots of batteries of all sizes (you can always use later what is not used during the storm). Consider buying a car battery to
power battery operated devices in the home.

* Make sure each person has their own flashlight and battery supply, in case you have to separate.

* A good supply of all prescription drugs.

* A first-aid kit.

* Optional but helpful is one pair of wading pants for each member of the family, or at least the adults of the household. If you live in an area prone to flooding, you do not want to be walking around with your skin exposed to contaminated water if there is a need, after the storm, to walk from the home.

* Plenty of self powered flashlights. This type of light needs NO batteries, which will be unavailable if a hurricane hits and destroys your area, batteries are sold out in your area. Candles are okay too as long as you follow some basic safety rules

such as attending to them at all times. DO NOT use if there is gas in your area, you even suspect gas in the area.

* Plenty of large plastic garbage bags to dispose of human waste and other garbage.

* Supply of Toilet Paper, and other toiletries as needed.

* At least one 5-gallon bucket and cat litter (the bio-degradable kind) for toilet use.

* A pocket knife for cutting things.
