AUGUST 19 WEEK 33
Monday:
If you wear glasses for reading or full time add a pair of prescription glasses or cheaters to all kits where appropriate.
Tuesday:
Get a large manila envelope to collect items to be sent to your out-of-area contact person. Today add a copy of all the photos you took last week to the envelope. We will be mailing these after we add a few more things. With access to the internet and photos and contacts on your phone you may be wondering why these are needed. During a crisis the power may be out and you will not be able to keep your phone charged and/or access the internet. If you are at a shelter lines may be long to use computers. There are many reasons hard copies may be needed.
Wednesday:
Time to add more hygiene products to your kits. Add feminine hygiene products, deodorant, and wet wipes to all appropriate kits.
Thursday:
Today raid your cupboards and add two-gallon size resealable plastic bags to all kits. These bags can be used to separate dirty and clean clothing or to place wet items in or to protect items from getting wet.
Friday:
You practiced a fire drill but now it’s time to hold one during the night. Did everyone use the items placed next to their beds? Did they put on shoes, grab their light source, and whistle? Were you able to grab a wallet, phone, whistle, shoes, and car keys that should have been next to your bed?
Saturday:
Today take time to look over the calendars from past weeks and months and catch up on items you missed.
