What A Morning!

It's been snowing for about that last month. So scooping snow is nothing new at our house. In fact, it's been snowing for the past 2 days. So this morning, I put on Mike's boots and gloves and went out to scoop the snow. Our neighbor was nice enough to use his snow-blower to clear the sidewalk in front of the house, so I just had to do the walk-way to our house. Then I tried to break-up some ice outside the back-door. After about 30 minutes, I was cold and ready for some coffee I had brewing in the house. So I pushed the button on the back-door to open it and nothing. The door was LOCKED!! The screen-door, the one I don't have a key for. Landon was standing at the door and I told him to OPEN the DOOR! He tried, kinda, and then left to watch TV. Thanks kid. So I pushed on the button, kicked the door and burst into tears!

My neighbor ended up popping the door open with a putty knife. I guess Landon knows how to lock the screen door. That's good to know for the future!
