I'm not really a hero, I mean the best I could hope for would be heroine really!
I had some excitement late last night/ / early this morning. I had just finished sending a couple of posts to my blogs and was ready to go snuggle with my sleeping sweetheart when I heard an odd noise come from the storage room. I investigated and found an outlet had burst into flames
I rushed through the house and as I grabbed the fire extinguisher I shouted for my wife to get out. She was sleepy but she must have heard the alarm in my voice and she quickly threw on a coat and ran to the neighbors.
By the time I got back the fire had spread to some cartons we had stored there and was near to getting out of control! I used the extinguisher more to contain than put put the fire as I didn't think there was enough to put it out! As I was spraying I heard the sirens coming! One of the pluses about living in the city is that help is usually not that far away.
Just as The extinguisher emptied I heard the footsteps of the firefighters rushing toward me and I clearly heard my sweet wife shouting that "My husband is in there!"
The first two to reach me stopped for a moment...I mean here I was in a babydoll nightie with no makeup and my hair combed back and they were looking for her husband! The third firefighter, a lieutenant. assessed the situation quickly and had a blanket wrapped around me as I was led outside. My wife and I shivered in the cold for a few minutes when an ambulance arrived and we could sit in the wamn rear while they checked me out for smoke inhalation,
The firefighters had the situation under control in no time and told us that we were in no danger, we should call an electrician in the morning to repair the shorted outlet. The nice lieutenant, his name tag said "Nichols", said that we "ladies" could go back in the house and he actually winked at me!!! I won't lie...if I could have I would have sank to my knees right there and then!
As we passed the exiting firefighters we thanked them all and most of them gave me at least a smile!
I'm glad I was still up when the fire started and I'm glad I kept it from spreading. I'm so glad that my wife was saved from danger and I'm so glad Lieutenant Nichols agreed to come to a dinner party with us in January, he's very hot!!!!!
Anyways that was my night of post-Christmas excitement! I hope you all had a more "Silent Night!"
Dear Kaaren,
ReplyDeleteFirst off, I am so glad to hear that you and your wife are safe. Whew! Second, OMG! How hot is that?! Get it? And third, that is one of my cheerleader's biggest fears - that an emergency such as a fire will occur and I'll be out in the street with all of our neighbors seeing me all sissified. LOL!
Kisses,
Leeanne
The funny thing is that I never even thought about how I looked until I saw the first firefighter's surprised look! The lieutenant was a lovely man and very understanding and he had a beautiful smile!
DeleteAs the adrenalin rush died down I wanted to curl up in a ball and cry but my sweetheart held me and helped me through it!
Thankfully it was so late at night that most of the neighbors either slept through it or merely glanced out of their windows and wrapped in the blanket as I was and with no makeup they might have thought I was in mens boxers!
Anyway thank goodness it wasn't worse and that no one got hurt!
Love
Kaaren
Kaaren,
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you and your wife are safe and well. In a way, I guess this shows how good it can be, at times, to be a sissy or half male/half female. Your willingness to grab the extinguisher and run into harms way to protect your wife are the masculine side coming out. I don't think there's any doubts that your actions saved your wifes life and i'm so glad you were awake when it happened.
Here's hoping that you'll have a chance to show your feminine side at the dinner party :)
Thanks for your concern Coleen, I was running on pure adrenalin! I agree that this could have been much worse and the first thing on Saturday I'm putting a smoke alarm in the storage room! I had them elsewhere in the house but I think by the time one of those went off things would have been far worse!
DeleteI never even thought about what I was doing! Instinct maybe, protect my wife, protect my home, like I said in my comment to Leeanne I didn't even realize what I must look like until I saw the firefighter see me!
My wife has been alternately grateful and angry that I risked my life (according to her) and I think it'll be a day or two until she decides to reward me or spank me! But I love it when she spanks me so it's a win-win situation for me I guess.
Tomorrow I put on my old boy clothes and begin the cleanup!
Thanks for your support
Love Kaaren
Hi Sweetie!
ReplyDeleteI came over to visit you on your new blog and it's great. Same comments on your actions during the fire- you were very brave and really are a heroine! Many hugs and kisses and best wishes for a happy new year!
Curtsy,
sissy jennifer
Glad you came by! Always love to have company! I'll be updating both blogs so don't forget to check back at the original!

I love this account of your adventure Sissy Kaaren, though I'm sure it was very dramatic and traumatic at the time - especially in those moments afterwards where you run through all the 'what-ifs' in your mind. But I can just picture the looks on various faces when the firemen spot you and you 'come to yourself' and realize you are dressed a little ... unconventionally (teehee). And the dashing fireman putting a blanket around you!!! (swoon).
ReplyDeleteYou should be proud of yourself being such a protector! Well done.

Imagine my delight when I found you had already found me here. I had to start this second blog because the Google+ police suspended my access to G+ from the other blog. I have appealed the suspension but don't expect it will make any difference.
DeleteThis was the one and only time I put identical posts on both blogs and barring any further disasters I probably won't do it again so check out both as I plan to keep updating them until I run out of ideas...
