Basically had another windy storm last night out here and it was blowing stuff around in the back yard. So I went out back to move some stuff inside for now. Now I though that I had the sliding patio door unlocked and went out the master bedroom door and forgot that it is locked. So I go out to the back patio in just shorts and close the door and then find out that the sliding patio door is locked and the other door inside is locked. I don't have my keys on me at the time either to get back in.
So here I am with the wind blowing really hard and it sprinkling a little as well and no way back inside the house. So I go to the side of the house where the kids rooms are and knock really hard on the windows. Nothing... so I make my way to the front of the house and try the door bell for a couple of minutes. Nothing. I am starting to wonder about my kids not waking up. I have another key to the house with the kids grandmother and can call if needed. So I went back and banged on the kids rooms windows for a little while long and finally got a rather freaked out and frightened Timmy. He went to the front door and let me in. Needless to say it took him a while to calm down and finally went to sleep on the couch.
Not to mention that while I was out front I discovered something. The big tree in the front yard had blown down as well. Thankfully it went away from the house. The funny thing is that I was just talking to a friend about deep watering and if you don't that the roots will grow sideways vs down. Bad time to realize that lesson from the previous house owner.
Update: After talking to the tree service company it looks like I won't be able to save the tree. So now I just need to figure out how I am going to get it removed.
