A PERSONAL NOTE
Â
First, I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to our veterans
who have served and to remember those who lost their lives or came back
less than whole. I respect and appreciate you more than words can say.
You will never be forgotten.
...
Recently, my daughter reminded me of something scary that happened when
she was a child, which in turn reminded me of how I made sure the same
kind of thing could never happen again.
At the time, we lived in Ontario, Canada.
When my youngest girl was 9, she walked home from school with another
kid. It wasn't far - just a few blocks down the same street that we
lived on. At this point in time, her older sister was staying at their
dad's house to attend a specific high school that had a program she
wanted to participate in.
I was a single mom, so being there to pick her up wasn't an option: I
had to work.
R, my daughter, had always been very responsible, and she was smart. And
most of all, she followed the rules. She didn't talk to strangers,
wouldn't take a ride from anyone, and locked the door behind her. As
soon as she got home, she called to let me know she'd made it safely.
Then she began her homework, and I got home an hour and a half later.
Everything went along smoothly for months. Then one day, shortly after R
called to let me know she was home, there was a terrible storm that
seemed to come out of nowhere.
High winds shook the city, and a torrential downpour erupted. Within
minutes, our power was out, which meant our phone lines were out at
work. This was before everyone had a cell phone, so I had no way to
reach my daughter. I also had no way of knowing what was going on at our
place - for all I knew, things were just fine, and the power was still
on. My boss told me to wrap up with the customers I had, then I could
leave.
But things were NOT fine at our home. We lived, at the time, in a
second-floor apartment in a duplex. My daughter had been getting a snack
when a sudden gust of wind and a flying branch caused the kitchen window
to implode. She was terrified and tried to call me, but of course, could
not get through.
She made the decision to leave the apartment. She first went to see if
the downstairs neighbor was home. She was not. Then my daughter went
over to see Mr. and Mrs. Cozy, her nickname for the kindly old couple
who lived next door. Unfortunately, the Cozys were out too.
And that's when things got bad.
R decided to walk to my office, which was about a mile away.
In gale-force winds.
In the pouring rain.
With thunder and lightning.
To say I was stunned when one of my coworkers said, "Hey, your
daughter's here" is an understatement. I looked up to see my little
girl, drenched to the skin, red-faced from crying, bullet toward me
sobbing. Behind her was a woman who looked extremely uncomfortable.
She introduced herself as the school bus driver. She hoped I wasn't
angry she'd given my daughter a ride, but she had seen R when she
stopped into the convenience store at the corner near our place to let
the Asian lady who owned the store know where she was going. (She was
trying to follow the rule of always letting someone know where you're
going to be.) The store owner tried to convince her not to go and
offered to let her stay at the store until it was time for me to come
home. The bus driver, who my daughter knew well, saw that R had no
intention of staying, so she offered her a ride to my office. The shop
owner took down my phone number and promised to keep trying to call me,
and my daughter accepted the ride. I was so grateful to these kind women
for looking out for my daughter that I hugged the bus driver and thanked
her profusely.
My boss let me leave immediately with my drenched, sobbing kid. We went
home to deal with the damage.
She wasn't in trouble, but I enforced to her how incredibly dangerous
her decision had been. I understood why she'd done it, but I knew that I
had to make sure nothing like this ever happened again.
That's when I started a notebook of emergency protocols. I wracked my
brain, trying to think of all the things that could potentially go wrong
in the 90 minutes that she was home alone each day. Then, I wrote
specific instructions in bullet point format of exactly what to do.
When R recently reminded me of this during a movie night in which we
watched something similar happen, I thought of how important it is to
have concise and accurate information in an emergency.
That's when I decided to write up the first batch of In Case of
Emergency printables
.
It's incredibly important to know what to do FAST when bad things
happen. You may not have the time (or electricity) to look it up on the
internet and discern whether or not you have good information. You might
not be able to find what you need buried in a book. But if you have an
emergency binder, or you post these printables in your home in the area
where people would be most likely to take shelter, they'll have a simple
protocol and be warned of dangers they may not have considered.
When bad things happen, knowing how to manage the event safely is
essential.
This weekend's OP fundraiser is the premiere batch of my In Case of
Emergency printables
.
It contains instructions for what to do in the event of Tornados,
Earthquakes, Wildfires, and Nuclear Events, as well as a Post-Disaster
Safety Checklist.
I'm really proud of this product because it's incredibly useful for
anyone.
These will be selling for $5 a pop later on, but this weekend, you can
pay whatever you would like
in a "name your price" sale for the whole pack of five printables.
If you aren't home, you want your loved ones to be prepared to manage
emergencies. In Case of Emergency printables
can help.

On an entirely unrelated note, I've been given the all-clear to start
walking again. It's astounding how much fitness you lose when you're
forced to sit around with your foot up for three months. It really makes
you appreciate mobility when it begins to come back.
I haven't been able to go much more than a mile and a half yet but just
being able to go for a walk or wander pain-free to the store feels like
the world's richest blessing. Currently, I'm not cleared to carry things
while walking - so no heavily loaded backpack - but just the walking
itself feels like the richest form of freedom.
I saw this beautiful last rose of summer while out yesterday and thought
it was so lovely against the backdrop of crunchy autumn leaves.
