Something is beeping in my house and it's driving me nuts.

I've ruled out the usual suspects. No electronics or appliances.

Called my son downstairs to make sure it's not in my head.

He hears it, too, but we can't find the source.

Clearly, I need to burn my house down now.
It's not the smoke alarm.

Trust me, when that piece of shit gets low on batteries, it is very distinctive.

Nope, but that was a good guess. I'm literally walking around my house checking everything that's plugged in or has batteries, starting with major appliances.
The problem is that it's intermittent.

It will beep twice, then a minute later will beep once, then 5 minutes later, beep 3 or 4 times, and then 15 minutes later, beep once. Then go quiet for an hour.

It's like the laziest poltergeist ever.
My family knows that if they do this shit to me, they are out of the will.😅

I've checked all of these except for the squirrel thing and if that's the case, it's just going to have to figure itself out.

A list of things currently not beeping in my house:

*fire/smoke/CO2 alarm
*anything to do with the wifi/cable
*major appliances (microwave, stove, oven, fridge/freezer doors, timers, dishwasher, washer, dryer, ice makers, water filters)
*cell phones/computers
*alarm clocks
continued list of things that are not beeping in my house

*landlines on charging stations
*thermostat batteries
*watches
*cameras/security systems
*hot water heater overflow alarm

I'm going to start drinking now.
I still haven’t found it, but I have had some bourbon, so I don’t care as much anymore.
Beeping update because I know y'all care. 😂

I read every single suggestion in the comments here and checked out all of them, or at least the ones we have in the house.

Nothing.

Please send bourbon.

Okay, time for a recipe quiz!

Based on this photo, what am I making? (Measured out: Jameson, honey, and heavy cream.)

First person to get it right gets a prize!*

*there is no prize
Yes! I’m making home made Irish Cream akin to Bailey’s, Carolans, or...O’Reilly’s!

Pennsylvania is certified and I'm going to spend my day making pecan, apple, and sweet potato pies for an extreme-social-distance Thanksgiving dinner with our 5 kids so y'all have a great day and I'll see you back here next Monday. ♥️ (Details on social distancing in thread.)🧵
Hey, Boston Globe.

Totally ready for this.

We are having our Thanksgiving dinner outdoors, and if it rains (this is Seattle, after all), we will be having it in the garage with the garage door open and a space heater.

Democrats: We Are The Majority.
We need to start acting like it.

link.medium.com/LaXptKDegbb
Dear Trump supporters,

We are the majority.

We voted for Clinton over Trump by 3M votes in 2016.
We voted for Biden over Trump by 5M in 2020.

We are a big tent.
Democrats, Republicans, and Independents.

Center left, center-right, moderates, liberals and progressives.

We live in small towns, big cities, rural areas, and suburbs.

We are your neighbors. We pray next to you at church. We work with you.

We don’t talk about politics all the time. But we vote.

LOL bots are so weird, man. @6y48d5s7MY54aDh
WAH! @jadd_warner I'm sorry your President played himself by not campaigning in Arizona. And also for being the worst president we've ever had.
Wait, @Prest0n1337, do you mean my 4 adult children who have all graduated from college? Or my 17 year old senior in high school who is about to graduate with a diploma and an associates degree before heading to a 4 year college?

Be specific. 😂

This is *exactly* what happened during the Florida recount.

What a bunch of sore losers.
We all thought we had PTSD after the 2016 election, but those of us who have been around a while see this shit going down in Michigan and and get flashbacks of the 2000 Florida recount.

Here's Don Jr., inciting violence against Kamala Harris in McAllen, Texas today.

Sure would be great if a whole shit ton of Texas Democrats showed up to counter the throngs of Vanilla ISIS that will surely try to shut down her rally.

#TrumpTerroism #SoulsToThePolls
Lots of "why is his mouth so dry?" and "why does he work his jaw like that?" comments, so I'll just leave this here.
(Apparently, this is the only shirt Don Jr. owns.)
