Daily life positive

Yesterday I was going to a mall and before that decided to let my dog out in our yard for a little while. When I went to call her back in she was laying down next to the door and came in quickly. It was then that I saw something horrible - the wind had broken a lock and the gates were wide open!

 I am so very lucky that my dog didn't notice the open gate because otherwise she could have been on the other side of our little town by that time and might have even caused an accident.
I consider what happened kind of like winning the lottery - this could have ended really badly but this time nothing happened and I just learned that I need to replace the old lock :)
