My Family And I Lived In A Temporary Home After ...
Contributed by Scott Rodgers on Apr 13, 2008 (message contributor)
My family and I lived in a temporary home after a move and did not bother to unpack our boxes. My brother and I were kept awake each night by a bothersome cricket. After several nights of poor sleep we moved all the boxes out in an attempt to drive the cricket but were unsuccessful. Finally after a few more nights of poor sleep we emptied all the boxes to discover not a cricket but a fire alarm with a low battery. We had to get to the bottom of the box to find the source of that annoying chirp. This morning we are going to get to the bottom of bitterness.
