Day 143: Be prepared

It’s Self Care day!

Today’s Activity: Do a home safety check.

Get some extra peace of mind by making sure both you and your home are ready for an emergency. Are the batteries in your smoke detectors up to date? Where’s your fire extinguisher (you do have one, right)? Do you know how to turn your water off if there’s a leak? If you’re in earthquake or hurricane country, do you have a go-bag with supplies?

Here’s a comprehensive room-by-room safety checklist and monthly and annual maintenance checklists to help keep things in good working order. Not only is it better to fix minor issues before they become major problems, you don’t want to have to figure them out under pressure.
