What a Loud Day!

I guess I looked too happy about having peace and quiet here on Thursday.  To make up for it, mom had the cable company come to change her phone line.  Cheaper with more features.  Guess what?  It doesn't work anymore and has only been in the house for 6 hours.  Seems like it's not compatible yet with the alarm system.  Mom called them to run a test which was going good until the guy got her to set the alarm off.  OUCH.  That hurt everyone's ears.  The kitties went flying everywhere, I went under the table.  Lights came on up and down the street and the phone went dead.  She canceled the test thank goodness but then there was no phone service at all.  Yes...it's cheap all right.  It's great if you have a cell phone to use and don't want the alarm to work but it does go BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP every few minutes now because of the failure of the phone.  I think I'm sleeping outside tonight.  The kitties are nowhere to be found and mom....well she should have known better.   She's going to get the duct tape out again and tape it up where the noise is coming from or we will be up forever!

We have a new background thanks to Scout 'n Freyja's mom!!!   Mom logged on and saw it and got so excited!!  Thank you Mimi!!!   Mom just can't figure these things out at all.  She tries but fails.  She did fail art in school though!  Nobody failed art.  She did.  Actually she has been trying since the 90's on computers and still hasn't mastered it.  I'd say by now she might as well give up for good.

We just have some pictures from the past.  We hope everyone has a great weekend.  We hope the ADT box survives until the cable technician gets here.    Mom has two hammers already out and in position if needed. 

This is me before the alarm went off.


Old picture but same position...me while ago trying to get outside.


Missing you pretty Bingo.


This was last year and we are hoping it doesn't snow quite yet.


Lilly looking happy before the noise today.  Old picture but still same look.


Angel in her recliner.  Not now...everyone is hiding.


We think this was posted before but it was so funny at the time.  Well...not funny for whoever walked up on the porch when Sam busted the glass out of the door!  That was mom's late husband's dog that he loved so much and all he could do was laugh after checking to make sure Sam wasn't cut.  He didn't really care about the beautiful beveled glass that was shattered....he cared about Sam.  Sam was fine and stuck his head out the hole in the door until it could  be fixed.  It made people look twice when passing by!

Have a Wonderful Weekend!
Lots of Love to All!!

Ooooooh Noooooo!!!!
Not the Beep, Beep, Beep…
That is awful… So very sorry for that my sweet Holly.
My Bro saw your post and took off… he is still traumatized from our experience.
Hope the alarm company comes out ASAP for you. Maybe your Mommy can put a pillow over it for the noise.

Pawsome pictures and the one at the end is hilarious; very handsome protector of the palace ;o)

Love,
Neeko ♥

Your pal, Pip

P.S: I love your music

I sure hope they get that thing fixed fast! Hammers are not really the right tool for the job you know? :) We like Duct Tape so much we have it in 4 colors and none of them are grey!

Kisses,
Emma Rose

That is awful all that beeping etc. We are not surprised that the cats took off for hiding places.Pretty scary. Hope you got it all fixed. We also hope you have a fun day. Holly how are you feeling??

Oskar said...

You can come over to my house and hang out if it doesn't get fixed soon!

Holly, I feel so bad for your beautiful ears. I can see why you're trying to get out of the house. I hate that alarm thingy. The grandkids have been here for 3 days now. They were fun to play with at first but now I wish they would just leave me alone. I'm too old for all this stuff. Can I come and stay with you?

Teddy Westlife said...

Our alarm here went off by mistake once before and I was so scared I didn't know where to run?

Remington said...

I certainly hope all things quiet down for you....love your music in the background....

Beautiful background and we love the music too:)

Too bad about the phone - hope it all works out fine when they come back. We aren't crazy about that loud alarm here either.

Woos ~ Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara
