I was relaxing til my cat want to go outside. So I tried to open the door but it wouldnt. That darn door knob locked me in the house. I struggled for about 1/2 hrs and finally got it open. I took the door knob out of the door so I can bring it with me to Home Depot to replace it. Oh yea I cover the hole with duct tape so I would get cold from the weather. Oh dont worry I can open and close without using the knob but I do have deadbolt so I can lock it when I go out. :pissed:

I will let you all know how it went once I get the new door knob.
 
Aww you poor thing :hug:... I'll send RR over so he can fix it for you :ily:
 
Struggled? For one half hour?? Whatever happened to your karate chops??? :lol:

All kidding aside, I'm sure it was a bit of a frustrating ordeal...wasn't there some way you could have gone out a window..and get to the door from the other side (that is if you don't have another door leading out/in)?--as for Duct tape, it's one of man's reliable tools, heh heh....

Hopefully, you'll have found a nice new workable doorknob and that it won't be too much of a struggle to put together on the door. ;)

Ahhhhhhhh Excuse me!!! I used the duct tape to cover the hole of my door where the door knob is so the cold air stay outside not coming in the house and freeze my butt off. :D

Yes I noticed you said that and it was just F.Y.I. :)

A hammer would have done the trick that is if you used the right aumont of force and knocked the doorknob loose and did not damage your door in the process :)
 
There!!!! A new door knob and it done. It took me 10 minutes to get it done. YAY!!! :fruit:
 
Pommie,
That great news! I'm glad you settled and warm inside instead let the leak goes into your home increase cold...

As same here.. ain't figures what's wrong w/windows which plastic kept covers but still ongoing freezing here... Oh well, I kept blanket and warm thick sweaters all the time..
I wish I could have very my own fireplace!

GalaxyAngel, if there are any in Canada, you can buy one of those thermal bed heater....you know, this blanket has a control that warms it up to your liking, and you and your hubby can sleep under it in your bed. :) I used to have one of those and it kept me toasty during winter nights while I sleep. :)

I am surprised about the fireplace, I thought most people up north have fireplaces, especially in Canada where it is closer to the Artic. :) My apologies for sound like I have a sheltered life, but I have always thought Northerners have fireplaces since it snows up there. ;)
Maybe you and your hubby can get one for your house one day...and to be kept warm there too. :)
