Glad to see H.Dorian indeed did slide along side FL…..hopefully same up the coast.  Whew!  Poor Bahamas!  🙁

FarmGirl….yeah, we’ve got a LOT of 1stAid stuff and finding what you need quickly is tricky.  We choose to be portable….using different bags but all of them are Red.  There is overlap but some specialty bags like cuts/trauma/bandages.  I now have thermometers in several of them. Two bags are a nearly identical basic bags.  One for DH’s vehicle on EVAC/BO and the other in my vehicle.  We’ve prepared for wildfire Evac so many times, our most important stuff is geared for leaving.  If we were ever in a different situation [not living in crispy woods] I’d organize things up differently, I think.  But no matter what order….being able to find things is so….satisfying, isn’t it?  🙂

Our lives been so mixed up around here for a while but much worse for the past month.  DH took a temporary full time job and the entire rest of our life came to a halt — or fell on me.  [see me flattened under a wall of fallen bricks]  They liked him so well, now they offered 2 days a week….trying to lure him to stay.  He will, gladly….cuz that will be much more doable for us all.  And not getting up at O-Dark-Thirty in the morning!  We haven’t even been able to see our elderlies for the past 6 wks.  Verrrry glad this ‘season’ has passed and this will be much better.  This whole year has been one huge shift after another.  Tired…..real tired.  But now hopeful.
