Then, I realized it was not my smoke alarm but my fire alarm, the one that is connected to my security service. OMG! Now what! About that time the phone rang. It was the security company asking for my password. What password? How the heck at a time like this was I suppose to remember a password? I was busy trying to open windows and fan smoke.

Totally frustrated by now, I gave the woman 3 choices for my password. Not going to work! I had to give her THE password, so I picked one, my mother’s maiden name. Isn’t that what we all do? She wouldn’t tell me if it was correct or incorrect and suggested I find my paperwork and call her back.

Okay, so now I go to my file cabinet hoping to find my papers. I do. However in the past 10 years I’ve had 3 different security companies so I have 3 different passwords in my file. Again, I pick one, call them back and confirm it is my mother’s maiden name. In the meantime, I took a chance, punched a few numbers on my keypad and the alarm shut off, FINALLY!
