I recently moved into a large...old...farmhouse...
and this large, old farmhouse has 4 doors. FOUR. And each of these doors could be consider the "front door". The UPS guy thinks the door going out to the deck is the front door. The internet guy thinks the door visible in the above picture is the front door. My mom thinks the door coming off the kitchen is the front door. I personally think the door facing the driveway is the front door. This front door confusion has caused some...issues. People knock on doors you can't hear from the other side of the house, the UPS guy leaves packages in strange places, and the internet guy just stands there and stares at the doors. Also, I have to go around and lock all four doors every night, because I tend to go out which ever one is closest to me when I decide to walk outside...and of course, the locks all take different keys.
Now, a normal person probably wouldn't worry about all these door things. I, on the other hand, had to find a solution, and fast. You know what I did? I bought doorbells. LOTS of doorbells. And set them all to different tones, and put the speakers all over the house. The UPS dude will never leave my package outside when I am home ever again!
Yes, you just read an entire blog post about doors. Sorry.
