What Would you Grab  

Well, as the dogs are outside and i have three dores to choose from, i will definately grab my cellphone first. Unfortuantely i am one of those who,s whole damn life is on that phone.

I think my beloved laptop,that's the only handy things to grab,you can run because its not heavy at all. Well it can be helpful to call for help inform your other family members about happened and your friends too.If your cellphone was also burned.I wonder if i can think of this honestly when fires suddenly caught our maybe my first though was just go save my life and go out of the house.

I will grab my photo album where many memories of pas days and many pic of my relatives and friends are there. Some of them passes away. So pic from my school days are there. Memories of past is attach with those pic. I am not eager to loose those in any cost. So I will grab my memories of past with me.

Hi! If my house is on fire and all my relatives are already outside then the first thing i will grab to save it from the fire will be my "memories", because they are the most important material things to me. my "memories" are my photos and all the CD and DVD with photos and movies from my camera, because there is nothing more precious than them, except my family, but I don't count them as material things, they are rather something spiritual, which i keep in my heart and mind

as long as other people on our house were saved, i'm going to exert effort on carrying out my beloved pc..^^, that is if i can only carry one thing... otherwise, i'll break my window, trow all my dress outside, and others except my pc^^,..

Really, it truly depends on where I am in the house when the fire starts. After all, going from one end of the house to another to grab something when a fire is happening just would not be a good idea. If I was in my room, I would make an honest attempt to grab my DVD player. I was thinking about saying computer but that would just be too much to grab in a situation. Elsewhere, I may grab any number of things. Perhaps photo albums would be another one depending on what part of the house I am in.

That would be of course if I could get my wits about me long enough to grab something quickly before getting out of there. I do think that if there was really a fire, I would be more concerned about saving myself than I would be saving my belongs. It just seems like a situation where my own welfare would be the most important. Then again, it is difficult to say unless I am actually in that situation and I hope I never am.

Having lived through my Dad's house getting hit by lightning and burning to the ground, I am answering this with the perspective I have from personal experience. When this happened, I was married and lived a few miles away. All his important paperwork was in one of those fireproof security boxes, and it was well worth the money spent on keeping stuff in there. As luck would have it, I had all the archives of family pictures, complete with ancestors photos, and stuff like that, at my house. Of all the items lost, this was the one thing that was most important that got saved from destruction. So, I would definitely say besides people and my animals, I'd grab those photo albums. As we found, almost anything and everything in a house can be replaced, but those precious family pictures are irreplaceable and roots of where we came from in our ancestery line.

I live in an old farm house dating back to the 1800's and I always worry about a fire. It would go up quick in flames! So, a couple of years ago I thought about this and decided to make up a fire emergency bag. I thought about things that I would want to go with me if there ever was a fire in my house. The bag only holds a couple small things. That way it is not heavy and bulky when I am trying to carry it out of the house trying to escape the fire. In the bag I have put my very first stuffed animal from when I was born, a picture of my family and one of my boyfriend, a set of clothes, and the last thing I have put in is some valuable jewlery that has been pasted down through my family to me. If over the years something else could go in my fire bag I have still some room to put a couple more things. This way I don't have to battle with myself when there is a fire in my house, on what I am going to grab on my way out. I can just grab this bag out of my room and get out. The only bad thing would be is if I couldn't get to my bedroom to grab my fire bag. I guess I would just hope that the fire will be put out before it gets to my bedroom.

Dear dorannmwin,

I am quite amused at the presence of the mind of the child who atleast thought of saving 200$ for his parents when his house was on fire! If my house was on fire, I would grab everyone in the house and run! The article I would choose is my iTouch!
