Day 66: Storm Prep

Hurricane Irma is heading for the east coast, starting with Florida.  While it is unclear what the course will be after landfall, there is concern for lots of rain here.  Fortunately, I feel quite prepared with my "raining cats and dogs" umbrella.  While our likelihood of losing power is low, LOML and I have stocked up on essentials.  We have enough nonperishable food to last us about 3 days, water for us and the animals, and food for the animals.  We've filled up the gas tanks to get into the following week.  It's probably overkill.  The important part is knowing that I am stocked up for working on my hobbies when I'm stuck at home.  Or mentally preparing myself if I'm somehow needed for extra staffing at the hospital should we become part of the evacuation strategy for other hospitals.  I'm banking on the former.  This coming week is going to be very interesting...
