blond wife and 3 kids, yard full of fire trucks

rrrrrRRRRRRrrr....rrrrrRRRRRRRrrrr....rrrrrRRRRRRrrrrr. ( Smoke detector and alarm system blasting ) 06:30 it's time to be out of bed anyways and get something done while the weather is decent. Wife is cooking breakfast and my Father was an overnight guest.
I'm thinking, okay I'm away for 2 weeks in Sept and away 2-3 times a year on plant outages for a week or two at a time. Lets see how they handle things on their own??? I'll lay low and find out.
Smoke detector has gone off when she scorched something. She successfully inputs the cancel code to silence the exterior siren & lights. Smoke alarm in house still honking.Alarm company calls house phone and both of the listed cell phones to find status.
It's known to all in the house the alarm system has priority use of the phone line and it will interrupt a conversation/computer modem to alert the monitoring service.
Cell phones on kitchen counter are in the same room as they all are in, are being rung after the alarm company tried to contact us on the landline. I asked later, did you hear them ring...yes. Did you answer them....no. Why did you not answer or use them... I don't know......is their answer. They never answered the landline when it rang either. The alarm company's calls finally went to the answering machine
Wife instead is later after the alarm company quits calling, is fooling around with landline calling the alarm company & waiting in the cue for her turn. Alarm system keeps interrupting phone line every minute and wife just keeps calling back on landline. Total of four cell phones in the house and I make certain the batteries are charged because they don't. There is even the On-Star in the truck as well. She could have used one of them.
We even know two of the Fire Dept Captains well. We could call them at home to halt a false call. Did that once already last year when the alarm company insisted on sending fire dept last year, "just to be safe". Had the alarm siren and detector canceled in a minute plus talked to alarm company and gave her the correct pass code, no matter. She was sending fire dept anyways.....
So....... back to today.Does she or children ever pickup the cell(s)....no. Does she or the kids know the alarm company will send the fire dept....apparently they doesn't. Does the fire dept need a false call....no. Is there a fire in the house...no. She's on a chair trying to blow air into the detector to clear it. Fire dept rolls into yard.............I can't believe my eyes and ears, can this really be happening?.
Same fire dept by the way I just submitted my application to be a volunteer on, yesterday.
Looks like it's not safe to leave the place for a minute to go to; work,town for supplies, back fields or vacation.
Wife and children are all puzzled, think they did nothing wrong and wondering why I'm even the least bit upset.In fact, it's all my fault..........
