The thirteen things I would grab if my house was on fire
1 and 2 - Batcat and Jezebel - the furkids are at the top of the list - though they'd likely rush out of the house as soon as I opened the door rather than wait for me to be safe too.
3. My purse - which holds my keys, money, credit cards and phone.....and its automatic that I don't leave the house without it.
4. My jewelry - at least the stuff I could grab quickly - I wouldn't really sort through it, I'd just dump it in my...
5. Wooden makeup box - it was my mothers box actually so it has sentimental value - but its bad enough to be in a crisis - living through it without mascara is unthinkable.
6. A couple pair of jeans and tops - I'm already in the bedroom grabbing the other stuff - might as well have some extra clothes.
7. My passport. I know it can be replaced, but what a pain....and its easier for me to find than my birth certificate or my social security card.
8. Box of important papers that I "hope" contains the above mentioned documents as well as newspaper articles mentioning some of my son's accomplishment, my mothers obituary, a letter from my grandmother, and a picture of me with Santa (among other things).
9. My netbook or my laptop, whichever I happen to get my hands on first....I couldn't survive without a computer.
10. My bowling balls
11. My portable hard drive that hopefully has been backing up my life for the past year.
12. My nook to make sure I find out the ending of whatever I am in the middle of reading at the time.
13. My BOB....not because the idea of destruction turns me on, but because I'd be really embarrassed to have the fire department find it.
So do you think I'm more practical than sentimental? In any case, what would you save first?
