Today started out as any other, and it went straight downhill from there. When I went to open the kitchen door (that leads to the porch, and the outer door) so I could let the little dog out for her morning run inside the fence, the door knob fell off in my hand. And I tried to ease the knob back on so I could open it, but no luck. The little bar had slid *just* far enough ahead so that I can't grasp it with anything, not even needle-nose pliers or a bent paperclip to try and hook it in the little fastener hole... *SIGHS*

Now I am waiting for one of the neighbors to get back from work, so they can remove the kitchen screen and I can hand them the key so they can open the porch door and from there, help me fix the kitchen door so I can get out. Usually this would not be so much of a problem but nearly everyone is at work or on vacation -- which means they are out and around, just not answering their phones. ::head desk:: To make things even better, my little dog is absolutely bonkers to get outside, and she cannot understand why I am not letting her out. :/

Poor you!

Hope you are rescued soon.

Have you looked on wikihow or one of the other how to sites - they may be able to help.

Hugs binky xxx

I am rescued now, lol. [And short of ripping out a screen, I was pretty well stuck.]

I'm sorry but that is equal parts annoying and hilarious :) Sorry, it's not hilarious to you.

Oh, I can appreciate the absurdity of it all. It's just that I could appreciate it so much more if it was a sitcom, and I was getting $$$ for this stuff to happen. ;)
