Locked Out

So I am sitting on my front porch waiting for someone from my office to bring me my house keys. You may be wondering why, because I am locked out of my house.

Yes I am having another blond day. My plan was to leave the office about an hour early and try to get some computer work done at the house. So I wrapped everything up at the office. Made sure that everyone there had all of their questions answered then packed up my bag and left; walking right by my keys in the front door of my office. Now let me just say that I keep the keys there so that I won’t lose them, I guess that today I just forgot them. In my defence (if there is one) I am usually the one who locks up the office so that is why I keep the keys there but today I was not the last one in the office.

As I was walking down the dirt road to my compound it hit me, I don’t have my damn keys. Now if this had happened in the US I would just pry open a window and jump climb into the house hoping that the alarm was not on, right Mom. Unfortunately that won’t work here. I have bars built into all of the windows and I have burglar gates on all of my doors and I do lock them. So I am stuck outside until someone brings my keys.

The only good thing is that about 2 weeks ago I did put out a chair on my front porch so I have some place to sit when the weather is nice. So at least I am comfortable while I wait for my keys. I got home around 4:15pm and talked to my neighbours until the rain came and it is now around 5:15pm and the keys should be here at any time. I would say that I have learned my lesson but we all know better than that.
