Your house is on fire -

have to be pictures I have 2 totes of them plus what is on my walls then. BUt get my dogs out first

I am so sorry to hear about your man and I can just imagine how precious his poems must be to you. I have to say, my husband means everything to me, so I would want to save just about everything he bought for me. I would try to save my wedding album and my jewellery. If I had the time, I would also save all the little pictures which my grandchildren painted for me, while they were growing up.

I would try to get all of my pictures - because those are irreplaceable. I would also make sure I got my mom's wedding ring set (I do not wear it because it's too small and worn out). Of course my family and pets would be saved first. I cannot really think of anything else that would be so important that I couldn't replace it later.

funny someone asked this a few days ago..but still interesting enough to anser twice lol.. i wpuld take my parayer beads and my computer..cos i have my poetry on there too..and it was all written for the undying love i have for my hubby too..i definately get where your coming from..a fellow poet dressed in the garb of madness..lol..i mhope you keep all the fond memories of your beloved one alive..

I would grab the firebox that has all household important papers, my purse, my laptop and as much of my family tree research materials like photos, books, and documents. Ok, those are the THINGS I would grab. But most important to get out of a house on fire would be my children. I think this an interesting question. After all, in this type of situation, you have to make split second decisions and move very fast.

I would save my photos and the goldfish as she can hardly run out of the house on her own. I would also try to get my girls special cuddly toys as they would be gutted if they didn't have them, but I can't imagine having that kind of time.
