Carbon Monoxide Detectors

We had a wonderful Easter with our children and Mark's family.  Dorothy made a great dinner and had her table beautifully set as always.  There was lots of laughter, talk and more than enough food.  Sydney made us cute little favors and was so happy being with all of her family at the same time.  It was such a nice day.  But things changed when Jen, Mark & Sydney got back to their home and walked in to all of their carbon monoxide detectors ringing.  Maddie, their little dog is ok~~thank goodness.  Sydney's little bird, Harmony, did not survive.   Harmony was the cutest, most social bird I ever knew.   I have written about Harmony and I know I have told stories about her, too.  She was hand raised parakeet and Sydney loved her so much.  Sydney is heartbroken.  This is when I need to remind all of you that if you don' t have carbon monoxide detectors, please put them in your house ASAP.   Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless, tasteless gas that is near impossible to identify without a proper detector.   And if you have carbon monoxide detectors, they do have expiration dates! Take a moment today to look at your Carbon Monoxide detectors to ensure yours are up to date and protecting your family as designed.
