SLAMMED!
I watched part of Freaky Friday yesterday, and when Lindsey Lohan was punished by having her bedroom door removed, I was reminded of my own childhood.
My dad used to do that, shouting “You slam it, you lose it” as he carried the unhinged door down the stairs. I called him to laugh about this policy for keeping five daughters from slamming doors.
He laughed and said, “Not you so much. The third one and the fourth one, all the time. You slam it, you lose it!”
“Did you just call Kate and Maggie by numbers?”
Sheepish laughter. “Oh. Yeah.”
Great post. Next family gathering, the five women need to show up in numbered jerseys just for Dad.

I thought I was the only one who lost a door!
