Be prepared.

So many of you know our FHE was combined this week and we had Emergency Preparedness. We were taught by some wonderful and knowledgeable instructors on so many essentials, such as first aid, how to change a tire, how to turn off our gas and power, how to unclog a drain and unclog a toilet, etc. These are all so very practical. Like when your toilet starts to overflow you turn the little knobby thing at the bottom to stop the water from coming, I mean, I already knew that, I don't just stick the plunger in the already overflowing toilet and plunge away, who does that.



But now most of us know how to calm someone down if they are hyperventilating, and we can successfully perform the heimlich, and you tighten the lugnuts on your tire in a star-like fashion. But everything we learned tonight was so very valuable that we all need to review them every so often so when the time for a crisis arises we don't panic!

It was also strongly suggested that everyone be CPR certified, it can only help you!
Our ward Closing Social this Thursday at Spring Haven, kind of sad, but it will be exciting.
And general conference is this weekend so look forward to being spiritually fed and physically fed, there will be a pre-conference breakfast at the Red Door house bright and early, 9 am!

he did a wonderful job on calming her down)
