My new-pep safety compromise

[nonyabizznez]

There are just so many examples of candles causing incredible damage. I try to take them really seriously. I've lived alone for five years, after always being married to some dude or other until I was forty. I love living alone and plan to stay that way, but the knowledge that I can't afford to make big danger-mistakes because there IS no second set of eyes gets me so spooked.

Sometimes a second set of eyes makes both people lax in the fact the other will notice/act on pertinent things. Ultimately self reliance is the best route anyway. Except for the second income !

True story. Last weekend an unattended candle caused my 17 story building to evacuate. Usually when the alarm goes off with loud audio (Attention Attention... Please evacuate the building... Proceed to emergency stairways... Do not use elevators... Repeat...Attention attention...) I disregard it thinking a disgruntled tenant or kid prank pulled a lever. Not last weekend! Alarm looped so long I went to my 14th floor hallway and saw neighbors gawking at the water coming down the walls! 28 flights of stairs down/up with my peptide fatigue!

Turns out a resident left a candle unattended setting off the sprinklers in her apartment. This meant the building could track the problem to her unit. The water damage was crazy unimaginable with apartments multiple floors below saturated! I imagine they'll be going after her renters insurance. That's gonna hurt.

But did you grab your peppy/ bac "go bag" on your way out?

It would require a dolly! I have enough Tirz to throw at a fire like an Ansul system! Enough to look like my mom dumping salt and baking soda in the oven flames shooting out yelling those words that would put soap in our mouths!
