The many adventures of Kristin...

Got locked out of my house today. Great fun!! The only window opening was on the second floor, the bathroom. On the upside, this really makes me gratefully acknowledge how tightly sealed my home is. On the downside, I, in my tunnel vision "must get back inside" mode, put a 6 foot ladder on top of 2 lawn chairs on top of two garbage cans....I just needed another six inches from there, to propel myself through the miniscule opening in order to get inside, get phone, call to rant to Kent and open the doors for the kids. (yes, in that order). Luckily, the only neighbor who I have met and one that may still keep a semi-decent opinion of my sanity, after seeing me 30 feet in the air, honestly entertaining the idea of a lasso and a good heave, came to rescue reassuring me that nothing is worth paralyzation for life.

I believe I have given people enough embarrassing visuals of me in the last week. That's it! Prim and proper from now on....I swear!

I don't want to repeat today, any time in the near future. I am considering doing a jig if I don't have to. But luckily, I still have truly, amazingly cute kids, with a really great sense-of-humor! Thanks for laughing with me Harry and Bella.

You are crazy! I hate ladders. I would have done anything except what you did if I were in that situation. I'm glad you are still alive!

You crack me up! If it makes you feel better, I probably would have done the same thing :) Love ya!

I am having a deja vu moment - weren't you locked out one time on an adventure with us in Park City??? I can't remember for sure, but it seems like it!

Luv ya!
