Things that go bang in the night

I hate 'em. Finally dozing off at a decent hour, then have to jump out of bed and clear the damn house. No clue what it was, but everything is secure.

Now to let the adrenaline fade and get some sleep.

Go back to sleep.
































Also, is the front door unlocked?..... because it was locked a minute ago.

Even though the false alarms suck, they do help keep you in practice.

And test your skills.

The silver lining. No hiccups in the process this time around.

Best test you can have. None better.

my wife likes to wake me up to clear the house at least once a week. I cant tell you how much I enjoy this.

Mrs Glue has her own SD gun in her nightstand safe so she can clear the house. It's not going to happen as long as I'm home but, hey it was a good thought though. All kidding aside we do work on what if drills together.

Had the same instance last night, kept hearing the house trying to creep up on me as I laid in bed...all clear, but dang was I wide awake in an instant. Found some flaws in my plan as well, so it was sleep well lost

About two or three weeks ago I was up late and just heading to bed when I heard a bang on the outside wall of the house. I checked it out and didn't find anything. I was up for two more hours. No way I could get to sleep after that. I still have no idea what happened.

Any Cats in the house? If so shoot them.

Must have been another fiend.

My dogs have the run of the house at night, it's pretty amazing how they can go straight to the source of a noise, whereas I'd be searching the entire house. They don't bark at silly ****, either, so if I hear em' bark, I get up and check things out.

Our dogs are like that too. They have a certain bark when someone is at the door

Water solenoid on the refrigerator is going whacky. Makes a hammering sound on occasion. It is pretty loud. After reading this thread last night I was just at the edge of deep sleep and it decided to act up. Up and moving down the hall armed and lite in hand when my head cleared and I realized what it was.
I just finished ordering new parts.

Same here. There is no security system better than a good dog. We know when somebody is around the house.

 

[Rooster_Cogburn87]

I have to agree on the dog points. A good early alert. Combined with good clearing on your part, makes a hell of a team.
