Brrrrrrrr!

It's so cold here today! I know the whole east coast is getting ridiculous weather...

I spend the night at a cousin's house. We had a great time, and the kids enjoyed it too. Too bad that when I came home, I was locked out of the house. My key fits the back door- I tired it before I left- but I didn't lock it and acutally try the key. So it slide into the lock, but doesn't turn it. Great. It's about zero degrees out, not counting the windchill, I can't get in...

So I tried my key in three other doors and it fits NONE of them. My husband is out of town, so I called his Dad, and he came out. He was able to pop one of the locks. Thank goodness. Turns out the other extra keys we have here (left in a drawer by the previous owners) don't open any doors either. So, I can't lock my house right now. Great.

And how's your weekend going?

Buy a new lock! How horrible. Your father in law can install it for you.

Oh, no, what a nightmare!! I've had my key break off in a lock before, but luckily had a garage door opener to get into the house. I had to have a locksmith out to fix the door lock, though. Good luck.
