With all the odds and ends needed to get done it dawned on me the other morning that with a 4 year old in the house and all the pain meds around I better have a safe place for them. I went and bought a cash box. I figure its light weight and I will be able to keep it in easy access but she won't be able to get at anything.

Sharshe,
I'm so glad this isn't an issue with me. I'd lose the key or worse, swallow it with my meds, or just not be able to open the damn thing if it's a latch type. I can just see me calling for help to open my med box.
It's just me and the doggie (who'll be babysat next door for a while), and I say a small prayer of gratitude every day he lacks opposable thumbs. He'd be dangerous! ;-)
Regards,
Pam

I have family coming from Denver AND Arizona to help, so I won't have to worry about picking Skye up from school or anything of that sort for at least a few weeks then other grandmom will pick her up drop her here.
I figure I'll stick the key on one of those stretchy bracelets. I did think of how to open it, I got the kind with a handle on top, the other kind was bad enough trying to open at the store.2 60* curves, DDD, left trunk shift, some rotation, rib and lumbar humps, annular tear at L5-S1
