Be Prepare

As the winter approaches the squirrels get down to business collecting nuts and burying them. They are preparing for a long season.
As I watch the news today I see that I need to be prepare for Sandy.
At work there seem to be a run on batteries and water. We even had a special delivery of these items just before I left.
So what am I doing to be prepare. I am getting my flashlights, water jugs and some chips to carry me through.
