Can I Really Be Ready For This?

Can I Really Be Ready For This?

I hope this finds you safe and warm. The storms in the last week have been beyond trying and very scary…if you were driving or flying…or just hanging out at home.

Yes, you can be ready for the storms that are here and coming. There are several ways to get ready, but they require you to think about your needs and the supplies you have. You need water. You need food. And depending on how cold it is forecasted to get, you need to be warm. Whether you stay home during the storm or need to rush to help others, make sure you have water with you. The people stranded most of the night on the closed highways in KY wished they had a blanket, some water, a wide mouthed mayo jar to eliminate into and some snacks to help with their grumbling stomachs.

Fill a shopping bag with toilet paper and some water to be in your car all the time. I never ever leave my driveway without my “peace” blanket that my daughter made for me years ago. It will keep me warm and help me to feel safe if I get stuck.

May I help?      CoachNatalie@NatalieManor.com
