Default Emergency Supplies...

are useless if the expiration dates are 2003. Interesting weather in our neck of the woods today..it's improved alot since this morning. I believed the weather alerts and moved all the lawn & porch furniture into the barn, took down the flag, moved the flower pots and anything else that could "sail". When the sirens went off and the wind picked up and Cassie started to pace and pant, we went down into our spooky old basement.

As I sat there hand cranking that radio so I could listen to Diane Rheam instead of the wind and rain, I thought I should ck out all the supplies that Mr.Alffe had been storing down there for years...an impressive assembly!
First aid kits, flashlights, batteries, blankets, face masks, cases of bottled water, medicine, folding chairs, bathroom supplies...

And cans of food, cans of juice, tuna.....all expired years ago. Now that the storm has passed, I'll throw them out and replace them.

And I had to cancel that hair apt..

Heard from the relatives downstate..everyone fine but their porch chairs ended up in their neighbors back yard. Last I heard, one of my sil's was stuck in a plane, on the tamack in Indianapolis...trying to go to Chicago.

Abbie...everything ok by you???
