      Oh, those are only the kits in the closet. We also have more in the garage, and something totally inadequate in the car.

        That’s so awesome! I think emergency packs are on everyone’s To Do list, but so few people have them (myself included).

    I have to sneak shoeboxes out of the house! My husband never wants to let them go!

      We do manage to get rid of those. I’m not sure why this one is still there, but that’s our life.

    Go you with your emergency backpacks! And for some reason the phrase “broken eye” made me laugh.

      I probably should have included a photo of Elmo, too.

    We really should put together an emergency backpack. Thanks for the reminder!

      You can see it just to the left of the bag. Well, you can kind of see some of it.

    I wanted to see a picture of the lobster print bathrobe! Regardless, I’ll be singing “Rock Lobster” all day now. 🙂 Ellen

      You can at least see the print in the photo with the bag!

    You are in my brain today. (Well you were on Monday.) I’ve been meaning to post about all the random stuff I’ve found around my dad’s.

      There’s an LOLcat in there somewhere!

      (Not at your dad’s. I have no idea what’s at your dad’s. So maybe there is an LOLcat, but I wouldn’t know.)

      I love her stuff. It’s expensive (full disclosure: I’m a family friend, so I get a discount and have gotten a few gifts), but there’s nothing else out there like it.
