"Warning Carbon Monoxide!"

Hey everyone!!

Thanks for the emails and updates and everything. So today i got an email from the mission office, i have to give them some information about my flight home. :( Im pretty sure i will fly in Boise on the 18th. The office will probably let you know once they have the flight information. I did get the package last week, thanks for the cookies and stuff! So, here's the update of the week: We haven't been able to return to teach the family, which stinks. Our baptismal date fell. Still haven't been able to contact him. But a family from Florida just moved here and the wife isn't a member yet. So we will definately start teaching them and baptise her. Also, early Monday morning at about 5 we woke up to the sound of, "WARNING: CARBON MONOXIDE!" My first thought, "What the heck is carbon monoxide?" I ran out of the bedroom confused, looking for something wrong in the apartment... nothing. My companion suggests that the fire/ carbon monoxide alarm is just running out of batteries. So, during the day we bought some new batteries to put in the alarm. But to our surprize 12 am Tuesday morning comes around and the alarm goes off again. At this point we are a little scared, what if it really is carbon monoxide? So, we take out mattresses out of the bed room and move them into the living room next to the front door and we bring the alarm with us. We also turned on some fans and opened the front door to "air it out." 3 hours later... "WARNING CARBON MONOXIDE!" "What the...? Still confused, maybe a bit more now. We barracaded off the kitchen, maybe it was something in there. The bedroom as well, maybe it was the AC. We go back to sleep. It goes off again 3 hours after that. Wierd how it only goes off every 3 hours. We call the senior couple in charge of housing and it turns out the alarm has to have a certain brand of battery and that has been on the shelf at the store for less than a year. We felt like a couple of fools, barracading off the kitchen and stuff. ha ha. So that was the event of the week. Im glad yall enjoyed the photos i sent last week. Aubrey sorry this computer im on wont let me see the ones you sent. Well, i love you all a bunch! Have a great week!
