auto-not-so-matic

Ever get stuck in an automatic door? Nah, me either, but I came pretty close tonight. I made a quick trip to Target and as I was leaving the young woman in front of me stopped short because the automatic doors had stopped, leaving an opening just shy of getting a shopping cart through. She hurried the 2 boys that were with her through and noticed me with my cart stuffed with a huge box, took a second look at the door and waved her hand in front of the sensor above the door. But when that proved to not work she gave me a look like, "well I tried. good luck." Really? That's it? So let's see, I'll just pull this door open a bit more with my left arm and keep it there with my left shoulder, stretch my right arm to loop my fingers through one of the holes in the front of the cart and pull the very heavy cart over the door jam and through the door. Cuz I'm just talented like that.

So it turned out to not be that difficult but still.....a sister just needs a little help every now & then. stumble it !
