Stupidity at it's best. Thought good laugh

Okay. So I decided to take advantage of the decent wether and semi good days and spring clean.  Oh boy.  Not such a good idea.  I don't remember where I put anything.  I may have put the remote control in the hair brushes.  And the jelly in the cupboard and peanut butter in the fridge.  But that wouldn't be too bad.  I broke two sweepers because u ARE suppoesed to put the belts back on after cleaning them out.  And I may have used the chinchilla foot as bedding and cedar chips in their food dish.  But even that would be better.  

I cleaned my toilet with what I thought was toilet bowel cleaner and washed my dishes with what I thought was dishsoap.  Nope mixed them up.  

So my painfully long day of cleaning lead to a painfully linger day of recleaning.  

I need a maid.  Lmao.   My poor kids they may have paper plates for awhile u til I can be sure all the cleaner is off and my chins may be eating their floor of the cage but at least they won't starve.     A messy house is at least a safer one than having me clean it.   Needless to say I put dinner back in the freezer and ordered pizza tonight.  Who knows what I would have ended up feeding them.

Lol. Trying being a type b. Like myself.   I am already wishy washy to begin with.   My 5 year old has became my translator.  Lol. It is funny. I was yelling at my 8 year old trying to tell her to do her chores and I was listing off what she had to do. And feed the animales, cleean up the clothes and wash off her plates canes out. Wash off the clothes,  feed the plates an. Pick up the animales.    Brooklyn said " what she actually means is..." and corrected everything.   All I could do was laugh. Thank goodness kids are easily adaptable

Oh ..I totally know what you mean about the word switching...it drives me crazy. For some reason it happens the most when I am trying to get the words out fast as I am giving my kids their "work orders" and nothing comes out right. They just stand there and look at me trying not to crack a smile as I tell them to pick up that"blue thing...you know with the zipper" (jacket) or the thingies (usually video games or controllers). My poor kids have had to learn "mom code" to survive!! Funny though...how all the bad words don't have a problem coming out LOL Seriously...being that I am a Type A personality and can not stand the loss of control, I live every aspect of my life by lists...it really helps!

The laughs sometimes make this bareable.  Lol.  

I still love the shave the grass.   I laugh everytime u tell that.  My husband thinks I am nuts.   Lol.  

I ordered dinner tonight.   Forgot I ordered and 20 minutes later thought hummm I am hungry.  And reordered from some place else.     It wasn't until the second delivery got there that I realized it.   Lol.  Oh well now I have lunch tomorrow.  Lol.  


I have driven places too and forgot where I was going.   Like my kids school.   And they are sitting next to me. And had to say " why are we at the grocery store we are going to be late for school"


Selma we may need to start a laughs thread.   Again.  That was always good for a pick me up on really bad days.  : )

  Ang, well in addition to saying odd things like - they didn't shave the grass instead of mow the grass...we have all done that....

My biggy was going to work and both my legs were bothering me....I was sitting at my desk when a co-worker approached and asked what was wrong as she could tell I was in pain, with that I swung my legs to the side of the desk and reveled I had on 2 diff shoes...not a biggy u say,. ....well one was navy, one tan, one was a flat, while the other was a peep toe wedge, the day was half over and I had no idea y my stride was off or y my legs hurt....until, my co-worker saw my miss matched shoes : P

And I have also put things that belong in the pantry in the fridge and vise versa.....FYI- eggs need the fridge....lol...they can get smelly.

Oh and another tip u can not wash ur hair with conditioner, it doesn't sudz up....luckily it was not the neet hair remover....lol.....

I will add a few more when I have more time....if we can not laugh at our selves, who can we laugh at ??

I totally know where you are coming from.  I went to go to the grocery store and had to call my husband to ask where I was going....I literally stopped my car in the road and had no idea where I was going...Sometimes you have to laugh, but it gets really frustrating when you can't remember little things.  I have burned dinners, put my dogs outside and forgot them, put milk in the cabinet, and macarroni noodles in the frig.  I just get so aggrivated sometimes and I don;t know just yet how to handle it or deal with it.  I have only  had a couple weeks to deal with the diagnosis and the possibility that it will only get worse.  I swear this darn brain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Selma I can't wait to hear.  The laughs make this bareable u know.  Lol

aaa Jenny.  I hope u find it.  Say a prayer to at Anthony.   He is the patron saint of lost things.  It always works for me.    

My girls baught me a troll bead bracelet this year. I k ow how much those cost and for her to do it herself what a gift.  

Heck I will say an extra prayer for u too.  Not that material things are importnant but I know every time I look at mine I feel like my girls are right there with me.

That does sound familiar.  I plain forgot my pin number yesterday.... how do you do that?? I finally said oh well run it as credit. I have found that if I am thinking about something it wont come...but if I forget it.... it will come.  Like a file you cant seem to put your hands on at the moment you need it.

It sounds like you did really have a tough day! I have to say that I appreciate the humor though...sometimes when everything just seems to go wrong, we just have to decide to sit back and laugh at it!! Good humor and a positive attitude is what gets you through:)

I am glad that you decided to give in and order pizza...sometimes that is just what needs to be done. Hopefully, your dishes won't smell like cleaner for too long...at least dish soap won't hurt the toilet;)

Take care
Carolyn
