Today I left the house and my house key with grocery store discount card fell off the carabiner.

Somewhere between my living room and my car the key was lost.

I was able to get into the basement. My hope was that the door between the basement and upstairs would be unlocked.

No such luck.

I tried to kick the downstaits door.....kicked it hard and it gave some buy it did not go flying open like it does on the movies.

I found a pair of manual hedge clippers in the basement and made a hand sized whole in the door. Fortunately the door is a hollow one.

I had always envisioned, in case of a Zombie apocalypse, home envasion or other such event that door would offer some time to make a fight or flight plan.

It took less than a minute to make a hand sized hole in the door, reach through and unlock it. A zombie could not have done it with a tool but coukd have scratched tgrough it quickly.

I am left feeling much like Jack Nicholson in THE SHINING after cutting through the door.

I will be getting a new key made and replacing the door with a solid one today.

No axe just some hedge trimmers
