Locked Out of the House

I took a day off from posting. I have had a lot going on with work and just haven't had the time. Bobbi had her surgery on Monday and it went well. She was out of the surgery center by 1pm. I can't believe that she got out so quickly. I spoke with her Monday night and she sounded a lot better than I expected. I hope she has a very quick recovery.

Today is finally a better day weather wise. Yesterday was absolutely horrible once again. I've been really busy getting ready for a golf tournament tomorrow. I do not want to go. I hate golf and I hate doing marketing functions. I guess I'll just make the best out of it. Hopefully it will be sunny and I can get a tan. The last one of the year. Business is picking up which I am thrilled about. Bob is doing a good job bringing business in.

Amy, Brad's wife, called me last night. It is the first time I have spoken with her. I was very suprised but in a good way. I know it has to be very hard being a spouse in all of this but on top of that being a wife. I know women handle things and feel things a lot differently. We talked for over 2 hours and I have to say it was very positive. She is just a nice on the phone as Brad had said. She is also a very good listener, it must come from her days as a therapist.

While we were on the phone I realized that I had been locked out of the house. This was at 10pm. I was still on the phone and started ringing the doorbell continuously. Buffet kept barking like crazy but no one came. I didn't want to beat on the doors while on the phone so over the next hour I'd keep ringing the bell. We finally get off the phone at 11pm. I beat on Mackenzie's windows and the front door. Ring the doorbell until I think it's going to die. Buffet is going wild. Nothing. No one comes.

I then tried to break into the house by opening a window. My first attempt did not go so well. The window wouldn't budge. It's almost 11:30 by now. I finally find a window in Mackenzie's room. I take the screen off of that one. I can't get the window open. I go out to the car and get a diaper to help dry the window off. It still won't budge. I had come to terms that I may have been sleeping outside in the chair or in my car. Not fun.

I keep trying her window and finally it comes open. So me, the mom, the adult, the house owner, is breaking into my own house. I see Mackenzie. Sleeping. Hadn't moved once. I shut her window and then make sure all of the windows are locked in the house. I open our bedroom door and guess what. LEE IS SITTING IN THE BED WIDE AWAKE WITH THE LAPTOP. Yes, my dear husband was awake the entire time. Did her hear the doorbell? No. He couldn't figure out why Buffet was barking so much. It was his dear wife trying to get inside for an hour and a half.

It was not fun. It was sad. But I made it in. Of course Jackson had woken up by then and kept me up until almost 12:30. I finally passed out and now it's morning. I'm going to have to hide a key outside.
