Not a real one, but close enough.
We live in the upper two storeys of a house, there is one other tenant in the house that lives on the main floor. My husband called me at work at 5:30 saying that the fire alarm was going off and he could smell smoke and that the other tenant wasn't home. I left work right away (I only live a two min drive away) and raced home, on the way I called our landlord as I didn't have the other tenants phone in my cell. On my way home I was thinking about the rats and wanting to get them out. I was so freaked out. Wayne called me back as the fire dept had shown up. It was just a pot left on the stove and only smoking. No damage done. Fortunately Wayne had been home, because left it could have been so much worse. The tenant put something frozen in a pot to defrost and had to leave and forgot about it. He feels really bad about it and is very shaken up. I told him that there was no damage so I was happy. Although it could have been worse.
When I got to Wayne and Esamae I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, I was happy everything was good. The rats are good, they were a little spooked but the smoke didn't make it up to the top floor.
Thank goodness for small miracles.
