Evacuation and Announcement
If I had 24 hours to evacuate my home before it was to be destroyed by a hurricane, what 10 things would I grab (not including people or pets)
This is such a great question since I live in Florida and I have thought about this many times.
1. My computer. Actually both my computers, external hardware, scanner and printer.
2. Pictures, scrapbooks and all my photo CD’s
3. All our important papers that are in a box
4. As much Christmas items I can. I have been collecting ornaments for over 30 years and you can’t replace them.
5. All my DVD’s that I have made since I have been married.
6. Any chocolate in the house.
7. All my Dan Marino memorabilia. There is a lot of that. Oh and I guess I would have to get my husbands sports memorabilia.
8. My camera and any other electronics.
9. COFFEE
10. Cash
There is so much in my house that was handed down to me and can’t be replaced and that would break my heart if it was destroyed. But, its just stuff. And if I was to save any of the things I listed above and in the same process would loose my husband because of the hurricane, it would be meaningless. My life will always be good with him. No matter how much stuff I have.

I have a wonderful announcement. I have been selected as one of Cara Mia Designs CT! I love her work and can’t wait to get started.
Congratulations on becoming a CT for Cara Mia Designs. Actually she is the lucky one.
Guess we had start getting prepared for the inevitable huh? There are some things that are similar for us. But then there are others that aren’t. Camera, computers. A given.
interesting answer for the hurracaine question.
I too will bring few things that in your list.
and congrats for your CT spot.
Congrats on the Ct!!
I’d grab the camera, computer, hard drive too. Our Wii, cause we love it! and as much clothing as I can fit in the car. Our tax records too. But everything else is just stuff. I’m always trying to get rid of it all anyways. LOL
computer, EHD, camera, photo albums/boxes, grandma’s jewelry, safe with papers
I am a bit of a pessimist so I think about this too much – I’ve been meaning to get my important things a little more organized for the unlikely event we don’t have 24 hours, but more like a minute. If my house was burning down, I’d say the same things as above are just as important.
Congrats, Tammy! I love your work!
I loved that chocolate and coffee was on the list! LOL Great list!
