Forgetting the keys....

Small things can make life miserable such as forgetting your keys. The worst time was last winter. I locked myself out and it would have cost me $150 to get the landlord to send someone (weekend!). (YUP my money is better spent on other stuff than having the landlord open the door for me!) I tried to wait it out for my room mate, turns out my battery for my cell phone died (I did not memorize his number) and my sis (decided that night to go to her boyfriends). So let's just say for 10 hours I was stuck a mix outside and at our kind neighbor's apartment. (If it were not for that situation, I would have not met our neighbor Jenny!). I promised myself not to do that again.

Well rushing out of the office, I forgot my keys again. Luckily my mom was visiting me. So she was able to open the doors. HFV-one of my roomie's-is finishing his thesis. So he comes home late and my sis decided not to return that night. (Thanks mom!) Monday would have been bad (Need keys to get into the office, but luckily I was able to make separate arrangements.). Really not fun to have to deal with this to be honest! Luckily someone is around in the area and I was able to get the keys. Phew! Otherwise it would have been really ugly!

Now I have to keep them in my bag and not take them out (unless of course when I need them!). Organization books always say items should have a home. I couldn't agree more.
