We’re checked in at the hospital and just waiting now. H is being great so far and charming everyone we see. The valet staff, elevator operator, the nurses and cleaning staff.

Hi.
I’ve been in my department all morning and been busy trying to learn everything. We’ve finished the bulk of our work so this afternoon is gonna be slow.
So last night at 3am our fire alarm went off. It started with the beeps and it’s soon as I lopped up the alarm said “fire”. Because of the recent discussions here, I sprung into action and went to grab the kids. As soon as I went to grab them, it went off. I didn’t trust it, so I went downstairs and peeked out all the windows to see if anything suspicious was happening nearby. Nothing. Because we are in an end unit if a townhome, I wonder if they all went off? Was it a drill? So many questions. I’ll ask my neighbors, but it was so weird and my adrenaline was pumping so not like I fell back to sleep quick. I’ll just be glad it was a false alarm, but please happen in the daytime next time.

tgrimes, is your H with you or is it just you there? Do you have stuff to keep you busy while you wait? He’s here. My friend that works here took us to eat and hung out for a bit. Now we’re back in the reception area. They’re updating us through an app. Everything is going well so far. MH will leave at some point to go to work and take care of M tonight.

Trigger Warning
H told me the service is open casket because he died from smoke inhalation. This is going to be a rough one. And pisses me off even more because those kids should have been able to get out of the house.

OMG. That would have scared the shit out of me. It did. And I learned that the kids are hard sleepers because neither budged. M2 hopped up soon after it went off, but only because I had halfway picked him up and put him back down. Our rooms aren’t far at all, but it’s still a little scary to think about. And mh was just sitting up looking confused. 🤦🏽♀️ I’m the only one that was ready to run out of the house, but that could have been because our discussions about it here recently.

@lahdeehdah I’m not sure our fire alarm went of a few months ago, I was up and alert within seconds… the rest of the household, not so much . Maybe it’s a ‘mom’ thing?

Also hi. I had a whole thing typed out, but no. I need to be more positive. We had a fun bike ride, I went swimming with dd, and ds made himself a photographer, he took horrible pictures of me (well the pictures are fine it’s just me 🤦🏼♀️). We played forest games and the kids enjoyed it I think. Dd2 has a faucet like runny nose and is miserable.

lahdeedah, We have had random fire alarms go off in our house so I worry we won't be responsive to the real thing. Twice I have shaken out the alarm and a spider fell out. C sleeps through the whole thing.

He’s out of surgery and we’re in recovery. He was screaming in pain when we walked in. They gave him some morphine and he’s asleep on me now.

😔 Poor kid. I’m glad he isn’t in pain anymore. Hope tonight goes well.
Can you refresh us on what exactly happened today. It was a palate surgery, correct?
