We are advised to have 1 gallon of water per person per day. So that is 6 gallons a day x ??? days we could be without water if the storm hit us. I went to 3 stores today, including walmart and only Dollar Tree had water left. They had a limit as to how much you could buy too. So I have 24 bottles of flavored propel water and 2 cases of regular bottled water. I stocked up on batteries, flashlights, diapers, wipes, and got a battery operated clock. Erik has his cell phone so we can at least call out considering that works. I think we are as ready as we could be if things get rough. Being prepared hopefully will keep this at bay, no pun intended. If it does become a Category 4 Hurricane, we will evacuate to Iowa, regardless of our jobs. It’s nerve wracking to think of what to pack in the event we have to leave. Everything can be replaced except my family and my scrapbooks. I’m going to get important documents and papers together just in case. I don’t want to be surprised.
