I think you have covered it nicely. Hope it does stop raining so you won't have to leave.

@Rosekitty This is great to hear. I always love to see blue skies and sun after a few days of rain/ The sun sure is a welcome site.

I suppose I would have to get The Boy to carry out the guinea pig cages, but everything depends on how much time you have, right?

@Rollo1..cages sadly might be too much to hold onto if you were stranded on top of your house..time to think of a better waterproof holder..

Fortunately I have never had something like that happen where I had to leave in a hurry. It has to be awful to try and think of things at the last minute, knowing all your other possessions could be swept away.

I love how brownies made it on my list, and kinda once in an apartment fire (nowhere near us but same building, was a bad one though, we got out with keys and shoes, and that was it, didnt even have time to catch and crate the kitten (only way to handle her with the smells and noise)

"The mere thought of taking Casper along helps you." - Old Jungle Saying I know, the #5 was for Casper Okay, now that I am done with not-so-sensible stuff, the sensible stuff - I was stranded in a flash flood at my brother's inlaws village some years back. 3 days and 2 nights on the roof of their house in the rain and then another 2 days and nights for the water to recede. It was horrible back then, but today, I think it was an experience - something that I had never had. If I were to pack up and leave owing to flood or another natural disaster, I would first take my medicines. Then other things. Now that I am married, I will only need to take my wife - she knows better than me what should we take along.
