Long post to describe something simple.
We park in the back and have to go downstairs to get to the back porch where the vehicles are. Either the inside stairs or the outside stairs (deck stairs). To get into the house from the back there are three ways
-
Open the garage, walk in and use the inside stairs
-
use the outside stairs and a key to the upstairs door.
-
use the downstairs door and use the inside stairs.
The problem with #3 is we do not have a key to that door. So this could be an own my shit and replace the old knob for a new one. The entire door needs replacing really.
Here's the possible shit test scenario. When I am home and she leaves (might be picking up the kids or going to get a haircut), sometimes I leave to go to the gym so I lock up. If I get home first I use the outside stairs and my key to get in which leaves the downstairs door locked.
She has told me several times not to "lock her out". I asked her what she wanted me to do, does she want me to walk up the outside stairs and then back down the inside stairs to unlock the door for her? She said do whatever you need to do to make sure the door isn't locked.
This seems odd to me. She wants me to go out of my way to make sure she is comfortable.
I decided I will go ahead and replace the door knob and then she'll have a key but the interesting question isn't about the specifics but about the general idea of going out of your way to do something.
