Talking of doorbells, Tree's Momma's doorbell broke and it wasn't worth the trouble finding the break in the old wiring so we bought her a wireless one.

We put the bell part on top of the cabinet in the kitchen where it could be heard throughout the house.

Some months later Momma complained that her doorbell wasn't working. Tree went over to fix it thinking it just needed new batteries. She goes into the kitchen and looks on top of the cabinet - NO DOORBELL!

She says "Momma, where did that box go that was on top of the cabinet here?" Momma says "Oh, I put that in the garage"

Tree says "Go and get it, and hold it in you hand here" then she goes out and rings the doorbell - Momma jumps out of her skin!!!
