Great podcast. The RV living applies to standard home living as well.
Especially when disasters are forecast and there is a time limit on getting out of your home.
Keeping the clutter out of the house as well as our mind would help to make quick decisions on the priority of what to take in 10-30 minutes.
Perhaps some family fire drills (people first, pets second) or impending disaster drills to know the grab and go items.
We had a fire this summer, high winds, 100 degrees heat which moved quickly. I was stumped what to grab and distracted trying to call DIL at work 35 miles away to ask her what to grab besides dogs and porch cat. I could not get through.
After the third time from neighbors telling me to leave, they came in force and said, “What can I take to your rig.” No more dilly dally.
I had grabbed some clothes, husband’s medications, computers so they took that, and helped me capture our two cats. Then to son’s house, started a sprinkler and got their dogs and medications on the counter and some water before I was shooed away by deputies telling me the fire was cresting the hill. The cat was not to be seen, probably under the porch.
Met DIL 4 miles from home and we stayed there to watch. Our homes survived. Another young couples’ home did not, nor that same farm family’s multi-generation home. Many fires in our region this summer so we were not unique.
I need to remember this in continuing to declutter. Would I replace this? So many, nopes.
