My mom is always the first person to get up in the morning.
She has been living with me for the past 3 years. She had a stroke and was unable to care for herself. Since then I have gotten used to having my mom around. When she wakes up in the morning, she usually has some toast, eggs, and coffee. After that, she sits down in front of the TV and watches the news. I wake up after my mom. I was very surprised that my mom woke me up yesterday morning. She doesn’t wake me up unless there is a phone call, but I did not hear the phone ring at all. My mom told me there was a problem with the furnace. It was making a strange rattling sound. I got out of bed, but I did not hear any weird noises. My mom told me that she turned off the furnace because it was so loud and annoying. It was hard for me to pinpoint the reason for the noise when I didn’t have anything to listen to. I turned the furnace back on so I could hear the drain rattling sound for myself. I removed the front of the furnace and I clearly saw a piece of metal moving around inside of the area where the furnace is located. I turn the furnace off and I grab a flashlight, screwdriver, and a pair of pliers. I started looking at all of the different components near the piece of metal. It honestly did not seem to be very important at all. I secured the piece of loose metal with some duct tape. So far, it seems like the duct tape worked, because the rattling sound has not happened again since then.
