?? Are You Ready ?? Saturday Six

Every where you turn you are being bombarded with news about the Swine Flu Pandemic.
The school even sent home letters with the elementary school kids -
meaning my DD is now in a panic
Last night we checked to see how prepared we are......


I thought I'd ask - Are You Ready????


1.  The flu is responding well to Tamiflu and Relenza.  Have you ever tried either of those meds?  Do you think they helped?


2.  The best way to avoid flu is to avoid contaminated individuals.  Are you staying in more?  Or taking extra precautions like having hand sanitizer available and carrying anti-bacterial wipes?


3.  Do you have a well stocked pantry?  Can you provide meals for a week without going to the store?


4.  Do you know how to be sure water is safe for drinking?


5.  Where is your flashlight?  Are the batteries okay?


6.  Just in case - the power goes out. do you have board games or a deck of cards to entertain you & the family until you are plugged back in?

Toughing it out works for many of us Liz,
Too bad on the mon for DS though .. no fun!
Hopefully by now he is back to himself
LOL on locking yourself in the house ..
Now that wouldn't be any fun
Sure does sound like you're prepared for anything ..
Really good to be that way too.
Of course the kids would complain .
However yes the tales they would/could tell :)

Thanks Liz,
Great questions - felt like FLYlady when she asks us if all of us are ready for an evacuation, just this is a "stay at home" situation...
