He locked himself out of his house and crawled up on his roof to try to get in a window, but all of the windows were locked. He tried to get back down and the ladder toppled. He fell 12 ft and had curled into a ball to protect his head and torso, but his arms were shattered. He's lucky he got away without a concussion or broken ribs.
Then you should absolutely add one of those rock hide-a-key things to your list just for a laugh.
Lmao that's perfect
Or, if you’re feeling a bit spendy, a keypad lock (find out if they use Schlage or Kwikset or some other key brand to match their existing keys). One of the best ways to prevent being locked out of the house.
Yale makes a nicer keypad deadboot
Wouldn’t be surprised, but matching existing keys is useful. And (in the US anyway) most houses use Schlage or Kwikset.
Thanks to stories like this - If I lock myself out of the house, I'm going to break a window before I climb onto the roof!
Oh suggest this is a good time to get some walks in. It'll at least be some exercise, we're all short on steps, some fresh air and sun. Just a couple 10 minute walks a day is easy. After meals is supposed to be a good time to help insulin response.
