I am a Mom. I have superpowers. One of them is being able to hear all things at all times of the day, even when I am sleeping. This began during pregnancy when I was awoken in the middle of the night by a baby who thought that doing somersaults in my uterus was a normal activity. After that, my body began being tuned into any movement or sound that emanated from a mile radius.
I began to hear our cat stretching, our neighbor closing his door, a car driving down the street and when our baby came along, her yawning. I am a built in watch dog, the protector of our domain. While my husband snores away the Space Shuttle takes off and leaves behind a sonic boom, a police car with sirens blasting stops on our street. I shake him, try to wake him, but he just rolls over.
I worry about when my husband is home alone. I’ve told him that we need to purchase a wireless security system so we can be truly safe.
The Bronze Package from Protect America is free, has a talking control panel, includes 7 entry points and 1 motion detector, it has a battery backup and costs $34.95 per month for monitoring. When you call 1-877-470-2751 you’ll get 2 keychain remotes free with your order. I guess that’s better than relying on a Mom with superhuman hearing.
I am the same way … I can hear breathing down the road. My husband can sleep through a nuclear blast.
