Austin, Texas

Day One

Cost to have locksmith pick the lock on older daughter's neighbor's house where I am staying/housesitting so that I can get back in: $52.00.

Cost to spend two hours in my jammies, teeth unbrushed, at older daughter's house while we wait for the locksmith - and explaining WHY we are allowed to go in the absent neighbor's house to begin with - to arrive and successfully pick the lock on the neighbor's house: priceless.
