OoooHhhhh... We have had an eventful afternoon!!

As the Boys were sleeping I was cleaning and watching the Olympics and all of a sudden I hear this screeching noise.. at first I thought it was the TV, but then I heard it again, so then I thought it was the fridge, it makes that kind of noise when you forget to shut it all the way.. nope it wasn't that... a while later I hear it again but it is now longer and higher pitched! So I go from room to room to see if I smell smoke, or what the dang noise is... then all of a sudden MY WHOLE HOUSE IS SCREECHING!!!! all my alarms are going off... MAN ARE THOSE THINGS ANNOYING!!!!!!! so I grab the boys out of bed, they are SCREAMING! and i take them outside and tell them to play in the dirt, while I lay Kaser down in order to grab his chair... so he is screaming, and my body is shaking, I am thinking WHAT THE HECK!!! I call Jake and he says to call the Fire Dept. I call the city for the # and then I can't get anyone!!!! so i call the city AGAIN.. she says to call the Sherriff.. I do... they say to call Dispatch.. I do and LOW A BEHOLD...... 10 minutes later I have a Fire Engine WITH ALL THE LIGHTS AND SIRENS rolling down my street.... hence this brings EVERYONE AND THEIR dog, their cat, their fish....... etc!! to my lawn while I stand there Lookin' CUTE!! (ya right I am still in my PJ's--but my hair was done and my makeup was on!! YEAH!!) The boys were in HEAVEN with the BIG RED TRUCK , so that is good right!!??? well come to find out it WASN'T CO2.... the Kind Fireman told me "Sometimes they can not read too well due to DUST particles!! (so now I am getting the fourth degree onmy ClEANING!!!!!?????) but really I am glad I had them come, I was nervous to come inside with all the kids! So I asked the kind man "How do I pay for this??" (maybe you are all smarter than me, but with my luck these days, I just knew he was going to tell me ohhh a service call is ONLY $500.00!!!) but no, that is where our wonderful tax money comes in!!! YEAH!!!!! so anyway... now I know that I need to dust MORE, change Batteries every so often!! :) and Blah Blah Blah!!!

but all in all it was fun.... I am just glad this wasn't a REAL emergency.... And now I can check 'TAKING THE BOYS TO THE FIRE STATION' off my

"TO DO" list!!!!! :)
