Yesterday I was rushing to get things done since we had a Daisy meeting to get to at 6:30. The last 2 kids were picked up at 5:45 so I had supper all ready so as soon as they went out the door we could eat real quick and leave. I locked the front door top lock so Dominic couldn't run out after me and Alex and I headed for the garage to leave. I hit the button for the door and it went up about 2 ft and stopped. It did this to me earlier in the day and I couldn't figure it out. It's been so cold though so I thought it was just too cold to go up since our other garage door has had that problem. I ran in and told Dave something was wrong with the garage door and to come help me. I told him "push the button and I'll pull it up" He said "ummm I think maybe we should try moving the van." I looked at the back of the van and said "uh oh maybe you're right." I jumped in and inched it closer to the wall infront and hit the button. It went up with no problem. I gulped. I knew we probably had damage. And sure enough. The handle from the door shredded long gashes up and down each time I went out yesterday pressing the button over and over throughout the day trying to figure out why the door refused to go up. I'm sure that's going to knock off a few bucks when we trade it in. NOTE: This is NOT my fault. Dave was the one to put the thing up the night before. Of course he says I should have noticed the van was sitting a bit back before I shut the door.
