1--We are encouraged to have two
ways to exit our homes. Please make s
sure that ALL family members know
both ways out. If necessary, practice
getting out.
2--Keep an emergency kit.
3--When you change your clocks,
check your batteries in your
smoke detectors.
Our city newsletter stated that
"Nationwide, one home structure
fire was reported every 85 seconds
in 2010." A startling statistic if you
ask me.
We are in a season where fires are
prevalant. Candles burning, space
heaters heating and fire places burning.
Use caution when using the above.
~Keep on Dreaming~
A good reminder for all of us.
ReplyDeleteGreat reminders Melinda...especially now that it has turned colder..well around here anyway! Have a great Sunday.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Melinda. So important. We had fire drills once a month in college, including 2:00 a.m. Many, many years later one of the things we learned -- cover your mouth to protect yourself from smoke inhalation -- kept us safer on September 11.
ReplyDeleteGreat tips!!!! I have never thought to have a fire drill..... hmmmmmm, I think I may plan one. Have a great new week.
