Alarm review...

Beth was up and gone by 8;30am this morning. She had an appointment with Dr. Bill at 9am and then a doctor's appointment at 10:30am for her blood pressure check. I got up around 9am and had breakfast and went outside to pull weeds. I was able to get the bed by the house and the bed by the flag pole done. I sprayed the pool area and the Scott's guy came to treat the lawn. The company we used last year really set us back and we have all sorts of weeds this year. Beth came home around noon and we had lunch. The alarm guy called and said he should be here around 4:30pm. I hate that every time we cook bacon it sets the alarm off. So we waited and watched the Phillies lose their ball game. The guy called and said he was at the airport and headed for our house. We knew that time of the day, he would not be here until 6:30pm. And sure enough he was here at 6:30pm. He looked over the system and found that we needed a new battery. He was not really able to tell us why the alarm goes off when cooking. He did say the vent needed to be taped better and that might cause the smoke to set off the alarm. So we will put it into test mode next time and see what we can see when cooking bacon. We ordered Chinese for dinner and will have steak tomorrow night.
