Winter storm prep

• Cozy kit: blankets, thick socks, hot-water bottle
• Fairy-light backup: battery strand = gentle outage light
• Thermos filled before the storm — tea fixes everything
• Water stored: 3 days per person + pets
• Snack tray: cookies, dried fruit, chocolate rations
• Flashlights in every bedroom, not just the kitchen
• Draft snakes sewn or rolled at every cold door
• Pipes on a drip; cabinet doors left open on cold walls
• Charged tablet + downloaded movie for blackout hour
• Pet bowls filled + three days of pet food staged
• Neighbor text list ready: check in when it hits
• Candles declined; battery glow is safer + prettier
