I was Red Cross certified in CPR a while ago, but I haven't taken a class since they changed how you should do it.

My smoke detectors work.

I don't have house numbers up because the house was just painted. Thanks for the reminder!

Spray Paint & stencils work fine until you can get them done properly.

Do you know (recent) CPR?

Do your smoke detectors work?

Is your address easily visible from the street?


-----

Just wondering....



Plus I know doggie and kitty CPR.

The other night I was laying in bed thinking, Hummmm, it's that time of the year to change out the batteries on the smoke detectors. I need to remember to do that tomorrow. Later that night one of them started to "beep" at me. Why the hell do the batteries always go low and start beeping when you're alseep?

I'm living way in the country right now, and have an address sign that lights up and is located at the driveway and road. I made sure you could find my place in the dark since I'm so far away from the police and fire department.

BTW..............How are you doing? Long time no hear from ya!

LOL

I have stenciled storm drains (as a volunteer for community improvement thru my work). There are a number of Stencil kits available that look professional. Either way, get it done. It pays for itself the first time it is needed.

Yes, I am CPR certified

Yes, my smoke detectors work

no, I live in the middle of nowhere, I don't have curbs or anything else to put my house number on. My house sits way back off the road, so dunno if actually putting numbers on my house would work either....[:/]



Stencil your Mailbox post.

I'm supposed to get trained by my company but they keep cancelling the classes. Kinda p*sses me off. they'v been pushing it back for 6 months now.

Do your smoke detectors work?

it worked too well, steam from the shower would set the kitchen alarm off. I was drunk one night (cuz that never happens...) and ripped it out of the ceiling... oops.

Is your address easily visible from the street?

ahhh, not really. im in a huge apartment complex so whatever.

Good on you:)Dont like to post all dramatic n'shit but I spent more time "in the area, attempting to locate" yesterday morning in a rural neighborhood with 1 out of 5 addresses posted, while grandpa is pushin on grandma's chest. Just frustrating...

Hey didnt you just do a Ca. hike recently to Burney Falls?? Burney was our vacation destination for many many summers as a kid late 60's early 70's. Did you post some pics??

By the way, reserve repacked 2 weeks ago:)

Yup to all three!

That's just a little too basic, IMO, but for most of society its a hard long road to get someone to simply do these three things.

If I step outside to my car I also have an AED available, CPR mask with breathing/pump bag, Israeli bandages, Quick Clot, other first aid and other "basic" items in my Go Bag/Active Shooter Bag. I could go into more detail about my Go Bag, but then this thread would be moved to the SC, which would suck.

I'm actually embarrased to say, "No."

Do your smoke detectors work?
Yep. And so does the carbon monoxide detectors. And so does the house security alarms. ;)

Is your address easily visible from the street?
Yep. And it's visible on Google Earth, too. :D
Always be kinder than you feel.

Good rule of thumb: change the batteries in your detectors when you change your clocks forward or back for DST.

I am a CPR instructor.

Numbers are easly read from the street.

No I disabled my smoke detector because of my wood burning stove.

It is always fun looking for an address that is blocked by bushes, and whatnot. Or even numbers that aren't there at all.

An HOUR!!! Boy you must crack the whip to get him home that fast. I can spend a half an hour looking at stuff outside before I even get in the door!

It doesn't help that Lowes, Home Depot and Menards all have different things I like and I can never remember which has which. So..... Have to go to all three!!!!B|

WTH Is your search finger broken?

http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=3273764;search_string=PCT;#3273764

That will give you the link to one of the many post about Bytch and mine trip.

http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=3459&l=a0821&id=1280537913

That link will give you the set of pictures that has Burney Falls in there.

Most times I change the batteries on the 4th of July, but I was kind of busy during that time frame,and away from my house for a month plus. That's why I just remembered it when falling asleep the other night.
