Watching the weather news today and given my current state of being gives rise to yet another issue with my current disability, have had recent hip replacement and am unable to walk without walker, bend, stretch, or reach. Accessablity of current items which may be needed in the next 12 to 24 hours. With what looks to be a massive ice storm bearing down, the need for portable heaters, generator, and other items is a distinct possibility, fine, I have to nice ones. But, they are currently located in an area I cannot reach given my current limitations. With my wife at work, 50 miles away, and the ice slated to start within the possible next 5 hours, we could lose power almost any tie after. IF she makes it home, not a given, she could be forced to stay at work if it gets real bad, there is no way that I could reach the heaters, batteries ad fuel for them. Neither can I go car and get out the bags of salt she picked up yesterday to deice the walk to make it safe for her.
It is obvious to me that some better thought has to be given to how preps are stored and their reasonable acessablity and use under all situations and health conditions. Lucky I am not without options, I can easily bundle up, and ride out any storms, just not as comfortably as I might, and the cats might have to sleep under some blankets.
