Just So You Know...
If you forget something for church and you are already in the driveway with the car running do not take your house key off your key chain to run back in and not reattach it. Later you'll go to your sisters for dinner and realize you do not have a key to get back into your house when you arrive home. Then you'll have to go next door to your neighbors and attempt to get a locksmith out on a Sunday night, none of which will come. Your neighbor will then try to help you jimmy your lock to no avail. You'll then have to take your screaming child, who has missed his bedtime, back to your sisters. You'll leave your wife and child there to meet the fire department, who says they do lockouts, at your house. They won't be able to get in and you'll come back still locked out. Finally, you will be able to contact a locksmith who will meet you at your house and for $150 you'll finally be able to get back in. So, for everyone - that extra key you've been meaning to hide in the garage or give to your neighbor, go ahead and do it this week!

OH, that's bad. NO FUN at all... especially the $150 and the screaming baby.
That's a great idea! I'll bet Ryan was in trouble! DTB did the same thing here - luckily I was out of the country. We now have a secret hiding place.
sounds like you had a GREAT sunday night! its really funny when its someone else.
That's a good idea, i'm sure the screaming baby didn't help.
When I locked myself out, the maintenance guy was still her. He climbed up a tree, and then a fence (topped with barbed-wire, and opened a door on the deck by our kitchen. I had never touched that door, and thought it was locked when we moved in.
Those of you who have been to our house know how difficult that climb must be. I thought it was impossible. We now have an extra key well hidden.
Thanks for the good laugh. I would say one day you will look back and laugh this but I am still not laughing about when I did it.
