I had planned to have a really nice uninterrupted sleep. Until I woke up that is. From a beep.
The smoke alarm! To tell me the battery was nearly empty and I had to replace it! Gone with the uninterrupted part! And yes, I took the offending battery out.
Those things can be such a pain until they are not.
ReplyDeleteWell, they were a pain last night! No question about that. I just hope they never work for a real reason!

ReplyDeleteI detest them. Have got two of the darned things here and they are the type that can't be "defrogged". With 11ft ceilings, you can imagine what I was saying when mine went off for no good reason... YAM xx
You need a ladder! Or a broom to knock it off the ceiling...
Delete...or a tall pal - which I did have visit a wee while ago - one of them is now lying in a cupboard. The living room one will have to stay. Regs and all that... Yxx
DeleteHad that happen so many times!
ReplyDeleteYour Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
I guess the other two will soon follow as well. They usually do.
DeleteSeems some cities in the US have a Halloween reminder to change the batteries to avoid such 'untimely' interruptions...
ReplyDeleteThey were only put in about three months ago, but I guess the battery came with the alarm and you never know how long they have been around before being used.
DeleteYeah ..... happens here too. why does it only happen at night??????
ReplyDeleteI think there are some goblins that want to pester us! It must be...
DeleteWe have like six in our house and we always say we are going to replace them once a year but somehow we never get around to that. Then the power goes out and the house is beeping in a few rooms and the dogs are shaking and hiding under the bed!!!
