With all the news constantly talking about hurricanes and evacuating, I got to thinking... What would I take with me if I ever actually had to "evacuate" my home?
The obvious ones would be my animals (dog and two cats) and I would probably grab any expensive jewelery I have, mostly because I might need it for money, but also sentimental value, even though I never wear any... I'd also want to take my art portfolio and my drawers full of photo's. And clothes, of course, which is kind of strange that I thought of this last.
It kind of made me think about what is really important. If I only had one minute, I would leash my dog, grab my cats and put them into a carrier, then take off with my boyfriend and leave. When it comes down to that, people and animals really do matter more to me than anything I may own. If I had any sense (and time) left over, I would also take food for the animals, then maybe food for myself and my boyfriend. I'd also grab some dog toys to calm her while I was panicking.
What would YOU take?
