I am trapped.

I am trapped in my apartment.  We live in a house that is divided into 2 apartments (we're on the top).  The main door to the house won't open- I think the knob is broken.  

This kind of thing always happens to me!  Our neighbor is a handyman so I called him and left a message.  I hope he gets home soon!

Re: I am trapped.

  • Oh no! I would panic! Guess this is a good opportunity to play on the nest and catch up on TV :)
  • uh oh!

    A few weeks ago, the door handle broke off on the bathroom door. I forgot to tell Brian. The next day the girls and I were in the bathroom and one of them shut the door and the handle feel off. I couldn't get the handle back on correctly. I thought we were going to be stuck in the bathroom all day. Luckily after a few minutes, it worked.

  • Oh my gosh!  I hope you're able to escape soon!
  • DH comes home by 6pm so I wonder if he'll be able to get inside!  Hahaha what a debacle.

  • There is only one entrance?  Is that legal?  <--honestly, I have NO idea.  Embarrassed  I always thought every house needed at least 2.

     There is a door to our back porch and an emergency rope ladder I could throw over the edge if I really needed to get down, but I'm not that desperate yet :)

    Oh!  Haha.  I see.

  • Well my neighbour tried everything (even taking the door off the hinges) and it would not budge!  Then he got a phone call to say that his brother in law had just tied (had cancer).  What a terrible afternoon. 

     

    Now waiting on my landlord to call a locksmith.  Hope that happens soon!

  • Oh, wow, Jillian.  How awful for your neighbor.

     I hope that by now you're able to get out of your apartment!  Did you have anywhere that you were supposed to be today?
