WOW! May in April, but now it's April in April.....! Can't figure all this weather out. All I know is that we did NOT have a real bad Winter.. We can deal with these windy/blustery days KNOWING that it could have been worse..Lots of tornadoes around the country lately, especially the Midwest.Since we all know this, it is pretty important that we are smart enough to deal with it. I have NO problem heading to the basement when I hear the siren or get a weather 'flash' on my cell phone. Last thing I want on my tombstone is 'Rex did not head to the basement' so HERE I lie".............At least make an effort.. Speaking of that,, the aftermath of a tornado is pretty bad. Lives are lost, homes are gone, pets are gone, towns are gone, etc.. If you live through it , consider yourself 'lucky' or 'saved'....Even if you are in the basement you can be sucked out and 'gone to the 'Land of Oz'.. Take our weather seriously,, I know I do..........
Speaking of that, once the tornado is gone, and your survived, but your house/belongings are scattered all over the neighborhood and area,,,wouldn't it have been 'foresight' to have a SAFE at home for some important papers.... Insurance papers, abstracts, Family photos, jewelry, guns, cash, etc.....Sure, you may have some of these things in the bank lockbox, but if you had a safe of some kind, you could have quicker access to it, and do a better job of putting valuables in the SAFE...I bought a nice fireproof, 5 drawer SAFE a few years ago.. The SAFE might blow down the street, but my stuff will be inside..I have car titles, photos, insurance papers etc in the SAFE.. Sure beats looking into every pile of twisted debris trying to find your insurance papers..
GET some sort of SAFE for your important 'stuff'.. Don't delay, go to Lowe's, or Scheels, or go online, or whatever, but do it now.. I am happy that I have one.
