Oh dear. Time to visit the hardware store and have an extra key made. ☺ Oh it's the little things that annoy that become the things we laugh about in years to come.

Hey, locksmiths have to eat too and you're just doing your bit to support the local economy.

Beautiful rose! Sorry about your locking yourself out; been there, done that, but was able to contact a family member with a key, so no locksmith needed.

It is the little things ... Did you really lock yourself out of your house? We always use our garage doors but one time during a storm, the electricity went out and we didn't have access to our keys so we spent the day at my daughter's. Now we keep a house key in each car.

Oh, I came dangerously close to the locks being drilled out here when the locksmith couldn't "break in" with his other tools. In my case, it was a step-niece to the rescue.

Oh, I couldn't agree more. It always about the simple things in life. Lovely rose. And mushroom risotto??? It is my very favorite. I add chicken to mine and it is heavenly. Thanks for visiting me. Your sweet words are appreciated.

I agree about the bookstore browsing. That's exactly where I am headed today for that very purple. It's like a treat myself kind of day. Locked out --- just be glad you weren't in your pajamas as I once was.

Snap,
Going to the library or bookstore is a treat. Last night I ordered books for my kindle. It's fun but just not the same.

Never underestimate time with good friends. We need them more than we realize.

Thanks for sharing the rose picture. Gorgeous!

Little things, we just have to be careful not to overlook them. This morning I sat on the porch, sipping coffee and taking all the little things in.

Great things to be thankful for.
I once locked myself out of my car with the Engine running.
I'm so glad you were able to get someone to help you get back into your house.
The comfort food sounds good.
Time spent with family is nice.
That rose is divine looking.

Oh no...lol..only I shouldn't be laughing, but I did exactly the same thing in a past house...repeatedly! Thank goodness I live in a 100yr old house which has such old door locks that you need keys on both sides. I resorted to buying on of those fake rocks and hiding a key in it in the garden. By the way, lucky girl for having such beautiful roses! Hope your weekend is tranquil and lovely. :)

Locking your self out is a habit I need to break, especially when it's raining and Im in my nightgown. Climbing a ladder to the second floor in your night in the rain.... never again. The door was locked up there too. :-(
Love the rose.

Such great randoms today. Sorry you got locked out. But, it happens to us all I am afraid.

I always leave a window on the porch unlocked so I can climb the deck and remove the screen and open the window if this happens, which obviously has since I am telling this story.
