Hannah watching Mary Poppins. She looks pretty comfortable!
With the house on the market I took advantage of her watching Mary Poppins and started to clean up the house (since we had a showing later that day). I ran downstairs and went outside to pick up dog poo. I remember opening the door and turning the lock (I have to lock the doors because Hannah knows how to open them and go outside). So as I picking up poo, the door was not shut all the way and the wind opened up the door and the dog got out. I was mad he was in my way and put him back in the house and made sure the door was locked. I quickly picked up his poo and ran it to the dumpster and went to go in the house...it was locked. My heart sunk! I ran to the front door and it was locked. I checked the car door (we have a garage opener inside the car) and it was locked. I realized immediately that I locked the door without realizing it. I went into PANIC mode .I just happened to have my phone in my pocket (thank the stars above). I called my mom since she had a spare key. She didn't answer. I called my dad who said my mom was at the gym and she had the key and he had no car. I called my Realtor since the lock box was right there with my spare. We have him our only spare!! Why didn't I get another spare to hide outside??? I opened the windows to my room before I went outside and I can hear Mary Poppins playing so I know Hannah is still safe. I call Stu. He is in Vegas and can't do anything, but I had to call him. I decided that even if my mom called me back and left to bring me a key she was still 20 min away. So..I called a lock smith. It was $85 to get them to come out, but it was worth it. They arrived 7 min later and he got my door opened, I ran upstairs to check on Hannah. She was in the same spot I left her 15 min before. I asked her if she was watching Mary Poppins she looked up barely and said 'yeah'. Guess she wasn't phased at all.
We made 2 spares that day and hide them where only we can get to them...just in case this happens every again!
The bill for getting into my house
