Sorry if I have already posted about this in here? Things have been busy
and hectic around here lately and I just can't remember- although I am
sure I posted about this in one ng. I just can't remember if it was this
one or not?! LoL

Just A Warning

I had never thought about this before until about 10 or so days ago;but
we have a propane gas heater in the living room to heat the front of our
house. So late one evening I wake up from a nap in my recliner and I
smell propane gas! Looked at the heater,which is close to my chair and
see it is not lit. Get up and see the gas valve is turned on!  Turned
that off,strong propane gas smell over the living room and I go to find
Mom. She's sitting at the kitchen table, having a snack and not a care
in the world,yet the smell of gas is just as strong in there as our
living room and kitchen are side by side and seperated by only a half
wall!

So I quickly opened all the outside doors,turned off the pilot light on
our propane heater,that is in the bathroom and put up the window in the
kitchen. I was just glad the kitchen door had been closed,so I didn't
smell any gas back toward the bathroom and that gas water heater!

Then started Mom toward the front door to get us out of the house until
it aired out. We got to the front door and she balked! She didn't want
to go out because it was too cool! LoL I don't remember what I said;but
I did get her out of the house and safely out into the truck,which is a
ways from the house. Then I went out a good bit further and very
nervously smoked about 3 or 4 cigarettes in a row! LoL

I went back into the completely opened up house twice after about 30 and
45 minutes and we went back in after I was sure I could no longer smell
any propane gas.

That night I built a little door on our propane space heater and put a
lock on that to be sure Mom can never turn that on,on her own anymore.
And I devised and screwed down to the floor another device over the gas
valve behind the stove so she could not fool with that either.

This one really scared me as I had never thought of her turning on our
propane space heater and leaving it on with out lighting it! And I had
bought some matches that you can't just strike anywhere,so she had been
used to asking me to light the heater. I just never expected she would
try to light it on her own and then walk off with the heater unlit;but
the gas valve turned on!

Love,

Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a mistake
when you make it again.
