Hold the Door!!

It's amazing how little remedies make me so happy. This is pretty cool.

When we moved into our current home, the master closet light was wired to come on when the door was open. The only problem was, the door would not STAY open, so we couldn't get dressed or browse around in there without propping the door open with something (or darkness).

Voila! Dear Hubby found this neat little gadget. One part is a doorstop to replace the old one, and the other part goes on the back of your door. It snaps on to the doorstop with just a little nudge, and holds the door open. *Being the handy guy that he is, he also rewired the light so that it has a switch now.* But we still want the door to stay open when we're in there.

Not only did this solve the problem in our closet, but we put them on two other doors, too. The door from the laundry room into the garage -- for purposes of carrying in groceries. And on another door that was always being blown shut by the breeze when we had the windows open.

You can find them at home improvement stores (and maybe elsewhere) for about $3 or $4.

Now look me in the eye and concentrate.......pay no attention to the dust on the baseboard....pay no attention to the dust on the baseboard.....
