Well some great and happy news for a change!

While the detector went off repeatedly yesterday morning, it was not heard the remainder of the day and evening. I heard words being said in the hallway before noon yesterday; I didn't recognise the tone. Since that time all has been okay. Perhaps a new detector was installed? Perhaps they were indeed smoking and the caretaker nipped it in the bud?

Regardless, I am thrilled. I was able to go to sleep soundly too.

Thx for your patience with me while I royally went on a rant.
