Preparing for Hurricane Matthew

As Hurricane Matthew moves toward the East Coast I thought in might be a good idea to repost my hurricane prep advice.  There are lots of lists about your essential records, and you should pay heed to them, but this advice is things that help you be ready and make time without power more tolerable.
Get ready and stay safe!!!!
