    I can't believe I did this!

    Tonight I stopped at the store for some groceries. I got out of the car and I noticed it was running. I looked back and realized that I locked my keys in the car! I don't believe I've ever done that before. Thak goodness for good samaritans! The lady parked beside me let me use her cell phone and I was able to call my brother and he went to my house and got my spare key. When my brother arrived, he said "I'm not even going to ask you how you did that!" I don't even know how I did that myself!! Now I know that I'll keep a spare key in my wallet just in case!

    Luckily I can't do that with my car very easily. But once when my neice was about 8 months old, I locked her in the car (the car was not running). It's a funny story now that she drives the same truck I locked her in.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I can't lock my car's driver side door without a key. At first I thought it was a pain, but having locked my keys in my car once, I can see the logic. You're lucky your brother was around and able to help!

    David,

    You and I BOTH know your brother has more money than God, right? I'm just glad there was a good samaritan there for you. Like your brother has never locked HIS keys in the car. Bah!!

    I've not only done that but done it with the car running!!!
    I had an old chevy that if you turned if off, you couldn't start it again for half an hour. Went to the post office one day "just for a minute" so left the car running. Locked the door so no one would steal that "gem" of a vehicle!
    OOPS! Good thing Dad was home and had an extra key.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    Donna, this was my "good" brother Danny that helped me out! I'm afraid to tell Kenny what happened or else I'll get a 5 minute lecture keeping my keys in my hand! You're right though, he DOES have about ten more bucks more than God!

    Well at least with Danny, you won't get the usual lecture, like with Kenny. I keep a spare key in my wallet and another one in my apartment just for close measure.

    My sister did that once, with her infant daughter sleeping in her carseat in the backseat! The locksmith responded very quickly when he heard there was a baby in the car!

    Well David P, we are all one and the same now

    I did the same thing once, while the car running mind you. My Dad (who could not talk) tried in vain to tell me not to lock the door after I loaded him onto his mobility cart. We were in a parking ramp at a Hospital.

    Did I understand him~ Of course not (that poor man)



    You just have to laugh at your own limitations. It happens to te best of us!

    Similar situation to mine. My son was in the back seat and about one year old at the time. The police could not figure out a way to break into my car (this was 30+ years ago) so we had a locksmith come from a half hour away. He got in immediately and wouldn't take a penny from me. He said the relieved look on my face was payment enough.
