WHOOPS!


If we can't laugh at ourselves we are in big trouble...I hope you can chuckle at my stupidity but as the saying goes - I can explain! First explaination is...I used to be a blonde!

There had been a leak under the sink so being the handy person I am, I put a plastic wash basin under it to catch the drips. It worked for some time. I had gone in the living room to read the paper in my recliner...anyone that knows me knows once I am in it it isn't long before I take a power nap.

My stepson came in and his dad and I were both asleep in our chairs. He said - there is water under the sink! I woke and said, yeah there is a small leak under there, to which he replied, no it is a lot of water. I went in and the pan was overflowing and running onto the floor. The elbow of the pipe under the sink had somehow unscrewed, probably from the vibration of the garbage disposal over time. I picked up the pan and said...it is a good thing I had that under here and proceeded to dump it in the sink.....water went everywere and I laughed until I cried! He stood there horrified and his Dad came in saying what happened...I hated that! lol

I had used my iron skillet, washed it and put it on the burner to dry, went in to read the newspaper and you guessed it, power nap time in the chair. The other stepson came in with his cousin and said - is this skillet supposed to be this red? I realized what I had done and went in the kitchen. He had turned off the stove. I said darn (or something like that) I am going to have to re season it, grabbed the bacon grease container and put a big spoonful in the skillet. He said, you aren't going to do that are you and I told him that was how you season it. Uh huh, the flames were quite high! My ex was asleep in his recliner in the other room. I told my stepson to grab the fire extinguisher and the 2 guys sprayed everything in the general area. Man that stuff goes everywhere and stinks to high heaven! In comes his dad saying, what is that smell and What the H... happened! By then the hysterics started and I was laughing and crying and slid down the wall to sit on the floor and carry on. None of them had ever seen me do that! I still get a kick out of both of these incidents! I have always told people DO NOT wake me with an emergency, I don't react well!

I was at a business meeting in China, sitting in a computer type chair on an open air balcony about 15 stories up. Complaining about two wooden boxes on the table that this company had already made for me with poor results I said to the company production manager and two female employees that if their 3rd attempt was not acceptable I would jump off of this balcony, gesturing behind me with a sweep of my arm just as the chair collapsed dumping me to the floor with the manager and Ladies screaming in fear and shock. The timing was perfect, it was hilarious to me, but I think they may have wet their pants. Needless to say, when I returned to inspect the 3rd box they watched me like a hawk. They again did not produce an acceptable box and I did not jump, just walked out with my sample. Although it was frustrating it was very funny.

I have a similar situation here. I put the laundry in four days ago and each time I forget about taking it out to put in the dryer and it dries in the washer and goes all wrinkled. So I wash it again to take the wrinkles out, then I forget to put it in the dryer and it wrinkles again. So I wash it again.............. You get the idea. I've just put it in again. Somebody remind me to take it out, eh?

It only takes a drop of ink to make a million people think. There are many stories.
