Not much of a blog today……dealing with the aftermath of the big ice storm last night..so many of our listeners are without power..some tuning in on battery-operated radios.
The important thing is to be SAFE! With power lines down, it is important when walking to know where you are stepping! Keep dogs on a SHORT leash, not letting them get too far ahead of you!
If you are without electricity, keep the opening and closing of the fridge to an absolute minimum. Milk and other perishable products will last a few hours, but they’ll be a lot better off if you keep the unit closed! The freezer should be OK for a much longer period of time!
Lots of candles will light the way, but they are among the highest causes of house fires-never leave them unattended—or close to combustibles!
If you can, visit the elderly neighbors to see if they are OK-make sure they are eating-and although we are all watching our “dining out costs”, resign yourself to the fact that expenses will rise a bit…keep it all in perspective!
Let’s ride this one out! Good luck!
