2.) 10 ways to survive a power outage. (Inspired by Hurricane Sandy)
This week for the writers workshop I am going to list 10 things to help you survive when the power is out.
- Board Games
- Flash lights and/or candles
- Snack foods
- Books
- Card Games
- Family- I always am glad to have my brother around because he always makes me laugh
- Drinks
- Blankets
- Puzzles
- Cat treats/toys because it is always a good time in my house when we harass my cats.
Those are the things I would need to keep myself entertained.
What would you need to stay entertained if the the power was out?
nice idea and make me think about myself. 🙂
Have a nice day.

I thought over this topic too. We live on the Gulf Coast so we put together a hurricane kit every August. In stark contrast to Sandy, most of our hurricanes happen when it is 100 degrees out. My dream hurricane preparedness list looked like this:
1. generator (it’s a dream list. And most people on the gulf coast who can find one now have one)
2. candles/lanterns/flashlights
3. a battery powered radio
4. a gas or charcoal grill (your best friend when stores are open but you still don’t have power. Also helpful to clean out a fridge or freezer)
5. non perishable snacks
6. all bathtubs full of water (to flush toilets and boil)
7. a pool nearby
8. wine
9. cupcakes
10. Good Neighbors

Want to hear something that sucks? Besides for #6 and #8, I was stuck with none of the above. Stupid Sandy…
