Whew! That was stressful to read. Awhile back I looked at my window and saw my dog lying my in yard, out of her fence, I panicked even though she was safe then just knowing that she had been out running around. Btw you can buy a patio door security bar or just cut a board to size.
I told it to save my pleasantries on file and apply them as it sees fit. That way I am being exactly as polite as it wants me to be.
