I'm Gonna Need A Little Help........Please

[Texjbird]

So we are still in AL at home.  It looks like rain and some sudden strong wind guests are the worst of what I need to deal with.

I found a local Dothan AL news chanel that streams live news/weather broadcasts 5 times a day.  Then re-runs them thru the day with interruptions for up dates.  My next door neighbor watches TV from when she wakes up until about 12 midnite.

The High School has opened a shelter for 80, it's B.O.B. = Bring Your Own Bed and no animals allowed.  That let's Q and I out.
  
 So if you put together the BOBs that I'm aware of you get..........Bring your own bed.........Bring your own bottle.......and one more that I ain't a sayin'.  Being the delicate sourthern flower that I am 

Scott the bathtub is Q and my Emergency  Shelter.  That's where we'll pile in for a tornado warning with lots of pillows and covers.  This town was hit really hard by a tornado several years ago on a school day. The High School was damaged really bad and there were some deaths.

I've dressed Q in her Redneck Raingear = Wally World bag tucked in to her harness with a bandana tied around her belly to keep it from flappin'.  Poor little ol' thing...every time she squatted the wind would gust and she'd hop up.  I guess she finally figured to hell with it and TCB.  I have since found her camo quilted raincoat for her next outside excursion.
Qs herd of 4 yellow & orange Tom Cats must be deep in the woods.  The 3 kittens are on the front porch.  I managed with lawn chairs and a cabinet to get them one spot that is only damp and not soaked. They ate like little piglets as usual.

The lights have gone on and off a few times so far.  I'm charging my second LED flash/spotlight.  Trying to stay awake so that if I'm without power tonight I can maybe sleep through most of it.  I have 4 smaller led flash lights and a lot of candles.

I'm currently using a PRO 12 tablet. It has a big touch screen and google voice,  I use them both a lot instead of typing everything.  I also have a Verizon Elipsis that I'm learning about how to change some settings on and manouver around on.  I pretty much need to use a stylus to type on it.

Thank You to everyone for your responses

 I hope not to be caught as unprepared for bad weather or another emergency again as I was this time.  I have told my family and friends for the last year or longer that it is my intention to never again be without a vehicle that I can sleep in and live in in some manner. That doesn't do me a lot of good unless I can get it ready to travel and have everything I need ready and in a designated place in my home. 
I realized today that I can't access the Aliner or my storage unit after office hours if the electric goes out unless they have a back up generator.  Besides the high fence with a barbed wire topping there are camaras and a coded entry to open the gate after hours.

  So I'm shifting around some of my priorties and hope I can get things done quickly.  There is just so much to do.
