SOL #7 – 3/7/12 What goes Beep, Beep, Beep In the Night?


When Hubby arose on Friday morning, he asked if I heard the beeping at midnight.  Now, I’m usually the one who hears everything, but I said that I didn’t hear anything and asked if he wasn’t just dreaming. 

He said, “No way.  I looked at the clock and it said 12:00 – at 12:01 the beeping stopped”.  I just said “Okay.” And rolled my eyes heavenward.

He checked the clock upstairs, his phone, my phone and anything else that could making the beeping sound.

Then Sunday night at 12:00, I awoke to the beep, beep, beep.  Just as I got up to see where the sound was coming from, IT QUIT!!!  So back to bed.  Monday morning it dawned on me that there was one clock radio that we hadn’t checked and sure nuf, the alarm was set to go off at 12:00 midnight.  Supposedly, I turned it off, but alas, last night we both woke up to beep, beep, beep at 12:00. 

So now I’m really puzzled.  Could it be ghosts in the house or has Max discovered how to push buttons?  Guess we’ll have to dig out the trusty manual and see how to turn the alarm off.  So hopefully we’ll have no more beeping in the Night!

    Sounds in the night are so unexpected they can easily wake us. I hope your "beep, beep, beep" has been fixed.

    Grrr . . .that's frustrating! What could it be? I've also never had an alarm that quits after a minute of making such racket. I would have slept through many wake up calls! Strange . . . good luck figuring this one out!

    Did you check the smoke and "gas" detectors? Hmm this is a puzzle for sure! When and if you ever figure it out, you will have to let us know!

    At least you both heard it on different nights, otherwise sanity may be brought into question.
    I hate noises in the night. Hope you get a quiet beep-free night tonight.

SOL 18/31 - The Realtor's Came Yesterday

Image
Yesterday, the realtor's came to look at our house.  Our realtor only brings his own people thru, so it wasn't too bad.  Max slept thru most of it until they went upstairs where he was sleeping.  He barked briefly, came downstairs, got petted and pampered a little.  They walked thru the house, in the bedroom, up the stairs, down the stairs, looked things over, asked a few questions and 15 minutes later out the door they went. Our realtor told me he has had a couple of calls - one from a neighbor (being nosy) and another from a realtor who said this house is exactly what his clients are looking for, but they had just left the day before it was listed.  But could they put in an offer sight unseen?  Really???  Is this just a realtor's ploy to make us feel good or is it real?  No offer yet, but who knows.  It could happen. I breathed a sigh of relief.  Max looked at me as if to say "Is that it?  Can I go back to sleep now?". ...

Tuesday SOL 10/23/12 - Mr. Pockets goes to school

Image
Last week there was an article in our local newspaper that I found fascinating and wanted to share it with you.  This is a story about a dog who listens as children read out loud.  It's a new program in our school district and I'm proud that our district is using this innovative program to help students learn. Animals are so loving, caring and accepting, and the students love to have someone that they can read to and to be loved unconditionally. I hope you enjoy the article. http://www.baxterbulletin.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/201210200500/NEWS01/310200014
