Walking

Since school started again I've been going for a walk after I drop the kids off. I usually walk them to the playground then continue on around the block and back home. It takes me about 20 minutes. Well, today is Craig's day off, so he decided to go with me. We also took Freeway the dog. We went a different way, through our friend's neighborhood. This route is about a mile. As we returned home, Craig said, "Do you want to keep going or do you want to stop?" I said, "I'm stopping. I have dance tonight." So we go up to the garage door to open it and it won't work; the battery is dead. We are locked out! All the doors are locked, the windows are locked, the doggie door is too small, and neither of us have our phones or wallets. As we sat on the front porch trying to figure out what to do, we finally decided to walk over to Kristy's house (the neighborhood we just walked through!) to see if she had a 9 volt battery. I knew if anyone did it would be Kristy! Sure enough she did and we were able to get back in the house. So, long story short, we ended up walking the extra mile and we're going to the store today to get extra keys made. :)
