I simply went outside and in closing the door locked it behind me. I was barefoot and getting eaten by mosquitos so eventually I took a rock and broke one of the windows on the back door so I could carefully reach through and unlock it. Glad you survived your adventure unharmed.

Yes door closed behind us no key. Thank goodness back door left open, neighbors home,to climb the fence, they kindly lent me a ladder that was heaved over the fence and then delicately I was able to climb over. With the neighbors words echoing in my ear your "you too old now to be doing something like this" Oh yes my husband loves to continue to tease me too (and yes word verification for this post is grans hehe)Marg Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07815343479399706156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119596690600748752.post-6981797094337317462011-08-10T18:28:28.220-05:002011-08-10T18:28:28.220-05:00OOooohhh no..!

I locked myself out once, but luckly it was summer and the window on the first floor was open. I went and got the neighbor girl - she was about 4 years old - and I booster her up thru the window. She had a blast running thru the house to open the door. I am glad you came thru this adventure without any injuries - you didn't need to hurt yourself right now with so much to do!patty a.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01861433552460661701noreply@blogger.com
