    If there was a fire blazing in your home, and you had a few minutes to grab 5 things you could remove safely, what would those 5 things be.?????

    Mine are:

    1 My suitcase of family photo albums.
    2. My daily journals
    3. My shoulderbag (personal, id, etc)
    4. A large storage tub of hats I made, and could sell for a new start
    5. Library materials (the fines would be enormous)

    If a fire started right now at this second... I would grab my mother's computer, which I am using, my guitar, my wallet, my passport, and my meds.

    Everything else is rather replaceble.

    1. My hubby and kids of course!
    2. My discs of digital pictures of the family
    3. My bag of keepsakes (wedding pictures, my positive pregnancy tests, ultrasound pictures/videos, coming home outfits, favorite baby blankets, hospital bracelets)

    Hmmm, I can't really think of anything else to be honest, everything else could be replaced.

    the family/ friends in the house (duh)
    camera bag with ID/ checks cash/ ATM card
    car keys (won't need house keys)
    some clothing and a toothbrush (I still have to work)
    Paint bag and canvases.

    the camera bag and canvases are my work, and I have the day job as well.
    Luckily most of my photos are backed up outside the home (work, friends have copies, etc)

    I love the "toothbrush" responses :)

    Dental Hygine is a top 5 priority!

    Makes sense though... going to the dentist in the U.S. costs insane amounts of money... I am suprised people here even have teeth!

    Im not sure what I'd grab, once I made sure everybody and my dog was out of the house.

    Im pretty well insured, hell, I'd maybe stoke up the fire with my out of date computer and cheap guitars. This way I could maybe say they were martin/gibson guitars and get more money back, and a new computer!

    The only thing I'd grab would be photos, and things that couldnt be replaced.




    Disclaimer: I have no intention of commiting insurance fraud.

    The only reason I would grab my computer is because I have tons of good music on it. Pictures too. And now that I think of it....... I'd leave my electric, I need a new one anyway. But I wouldn't go without my acoustic, my dad has had that thing since before I was born. He gave it to me when I was 14, I think.
