ONE OF THOSE DAYS
Have you ever had one of those days where a minor, nuisance of a problem has taken up most of your day. Well, today was one of those days for me. It all started mid morning when one of our 3 smoke detectors beeped - not just that little chirp you get when the battery needs replacing, it was 3 high pitched beeps but not at regular intervals as you'd expect. I got the ladder out and replaced the battery as I figured that would be a good start - but that didn't stop the noise. I then checked the battery I'd just put in to make sure it wasn't a dud but it was fine so I made sure I'd put it in correctly, positive and negative in the right place. Okay, should be okay now - nope, still beeping. I got the vacuum cleaner out and vacuumed inside and outside the detector even though to my eye, it looked fine and after about an hour of silence and thinking all was well, that darned beeping started all over again. What now I thought. I don't want this continuing all nigh
