It was an extremely quiet night. It was also late, when most people were sleeping. I was already awake, which was fortunate, because the rest of the night (and the early morning) was about to get loud!
Every smoke alarm / carbon monoxide detector went off in the house. 🙀
With all of the alarms going off at once, it was instant pandemonium. That's where “preparedness” enters the picture. Had I read the instructions for the smoke alarms, it would have been a lot less chaos.
Also, had I read the instructions earlier, there wouldn't have been a blinking green light in my bedroom.
Some of the alarms are just smoke alarms. Others are a smoke alarm / carbon monoxide alarm. In all of the noise and confusion, it was tough to know if I was battling a fire problem or a carbon monoxide problem.
Looking back, this is a funny story. But in the moment, it wasn't known if this was an actual emergency. Now that I better understand my smoke detectors, there won't be that hesitation if this happens again.
