Spin Day

1:30 AM my smoke detector went off waking me out of a sound sleep - and I mean really went off and scared the shit out of me. No smoke - it stopped and it took me an hour before I could really breathe again - at least at a slower rate than hyperventilating. I walked the house and looked everywhere - nothing.

In the 80s houses like mine were hard wired with smoke detectors and no batteries were used. This detector is right outside the bathroom so it has been set off a number of times by steam. I am not sure why it went off at 1:30. Either it needed a dusting or the prankster spirit is back.

I vacuumed the detector today and hopefully there will be no more funny business at 1:30 in the morning. Frankly - I'm still scared :-(

I have been working on putting my spinning room together and today because of no sleep last night I laid low and spent time spinning and organizing. Not the most exciting photo to most - but it is to me because today I started to find my groove with the spinning wheel.
