Im so greatful My husband came home.

Last night I was cleaning my house, and i smelt this really bad odor. I could only find it in my formal living room and i was so confused because we have nothing in there yet. So i called Jon at work and I asked him if he noticed a weird smell before he went to work, and he said no. So he said when he got home he would try to find out what it was. So i began cleaning and doing laundry and the smell just kept getting stronger. I really didn't think it was anything bad, but i checked again. I thought maybe our air freshner plugs were old or something so i took them out of the wall. And still the smell wasn't gone. I finally went to bed being frustrated. I finally fell asleep and then about 6:30 am this morning Jon got home from work. I heard the front door being unlocked and then all of a sudden Jon just started freaking out & he ran to our bedroom yelling my name. So i woke up and he was saying we have to get out of the house right now, the house is full of propane. So we got our dog and we got into the car. We only ended up in the driveway, Jon had called his dad & his dad said to call propane company and poison control. I was starting to freak out. Our house runs off of propane so Jon had to go find where the leak was coming from. I didn't want him to because recently a house blew up because of the same thing. Jon really didnt want to go in either but he had to blow out the flame downstairs so it wouldnt blow the house up. All i could think about was this is not good. My husband is in there and anything could happen if he turned on a light. So Jon came back out to the car and said he got the flame blown out everything shut off. Then all of a sudden i started feeling really sick. I had a headache and i was getting dizzy. Poison control said i didnt have carbonmonoxide poisioning or our alarms would have went off. Thank goodness for that. So to make a long story short everything is ok. My house is airing out and were at my parents. Im greatful nothing bad happened and that my husband, my dog and i are all ok.
