last week I put lights around the front windows…

it has been an interesting process as I used duct tape… sadly I’ve had to continuously press the tape back on as it doesn’t really want to stick…

anyway, after I finished I wanted some pictures so I put on my jacket, but left my slippers on as I was only going to be on the sidewalk…

once the pictures were taken I went to open the door and it wouldn’t… my heart skipped a beat as I stood there – in my slippers…

I tried a few times, but it just would not open… by chance I turned the handle up which was the opposite direction than normal and it opened… whew…

talked to my son-in-law, who suggested WD40, but that didn’t work… had to put a note on the door, lol…

my grandson and I picked up a new handle and he was able to change it without a problem…

a tiny piece of plastic broke off which is what caused the issue…

happy to have it working properly again;-)…
