JFF: Nnnoooooo.....

Well I posted about this earlier, but it was definitely when my 18 month old came down the hall holding pee soaked toilet paper and licking a piece of poop, it was a huge NOOOOO!!!! Moment!

Moving lasagna from oven other day it slipped, flipped and dripped all down between the door hinge......

Woke up at 8:29 this morning. To guarantee not being late for work, I need to leave the house by 8:35. Yeah, that didn't happen.

Well, it didn't happen today, but one day last week, I locked myself out of the house.

Went into the garage to put garbage in the big bin, and the door slammed behind me. We just had work done in the garage the week before, and the extra key was not in there.

Oops!

Thank goodness I was fully clothed and that my husband was still in town. (He was leaving for Hong Kong the next morning). I walked over to my neighbor's house and called him to come home and unlock the door.

My husband couldn't get home for about an hour, so the upside is I now have a clean garage! And an extra key back in the garage.

It could have been a lot worse!

Registered my baby girl, my very last child, for K today...and while there I was told that the district has changed from half day to whole day K next year! Nnnnoooooooo! I know she is ready and will do just fine...but as for me, I will be a mess! I am not ready for my 'baby' to be gone from the house all day instead of just a couple hours! :(

Oh my gosh ... I did that a few months ago and I was so mad at myself; especially since I'm on well-water!!

Seems like I do something like this every day - I set the timer today to be sure and get my daughter's pants out of the dryer so they wouldn't get all wrinkled. Well, the timer went off in like five minutes but for about a minute I couldn't remember why I set it!! Seriously!!

The other day I made myself a cup of coffee; I have a cheap little single cup maker - I forgot to put my cup underneath. Had gone in the other room when I heard what sounded like water running - yep, something was running... my coffee all over the counter top. Ugg!!!

If my dog and cats could talk, I'm sure they would be telling my family lots and lots of stories about all the stupid stuff I do!!

Fun question!!

made arrangements with boss who hates me to leave work for an hour to go to an apt. my husband set up, to get a passport for my son. Trusted my husband to bring the correct paperwork. What the hell was I thinking. He said wait here I'll go home and get it (we're not even in the same town) Course he cant find anything. I made another apt. at a convenient time, came home after work and found the paperwork (in less than 2 minutes)
WTH was I thinking?

I went outside to skim the pool, and thought the water level was a little bit low. I turned on the water, intending to let it run just for a little while. Well... the phone rang, I got to talking, and the next thing I knew, the backyard was flooded. Oops.

One of my girls is addicted to hard boiled eggs. I have to have them on hand at all times. I set a pot to boil and put a batch in and went upstairs. I set the timer but I guess we can't hear it up there... And I guess we were having a lot of fun up stairs because about 45 minutes later I hear some loud pops. I run downstairs to a find a dry pot and some sick smelling burnt exploded eggs all over my stove.

OK so this didn't happen today, it was a few weeks ago, but those "nnnnnooooo" moments really stick with ya.

I was already running later for work. Looked down to see the fuel on empty. Noooooooo!

I picked my two year old up from daycare yesterday afternoon. I got to his classroom right at the tail end of snack time. My son was so excited to see me he jumped up from the table, leaving his snack unattended. The little girl next to him started picking up his Cheerios and furiously stuffing them in her mouth. You would have thought the poor child never got fed at the rate she was consuming them. I asked my son to please pick up after himself and to finish whatever was left. As he went to pick up his napkin containing the last of the Cheerios, he spilled them all over the floor. I asked him to then clean up the mess quickly. Before the words had even really left my lips, my son and three other toddlers descended on the Cheerios. Each and every one of them ate the Cheerios right off the floor. I think the room ladies were far more horrified than I was; the look on one young lady's face was priceless. I philosophically told the ladies the mess was cleaned up so mission accomplished in my book. For a brief moment, though, I was thinking "nnnnnoooooo...." but it was way too late to stop the descending horde. Aren't they so helpful picking up after themselves?!?

Yesterday I forgot to plug in the crockpot after an hour of it sitting on the counter. Then realized 1/2 hour later I forgot to turn it on.

Today I didn't realize that I accidentally turned our liftgate off on our SUV so I thought the automatic lift was broken.

LOL I've done that more than once. Thought it was "old timers." Actually, I think we get so used to doing laundry, at least I do, that I think about other things while doing it and miss a step.

What is a laundry bin?

My "nooo" moment was yesterday. I made "crib" sheets for a house I was hosting in a home tour and left them at home. I'd had to make a run to the store for index cards, edited the notes sheet, cut them apart, pasted them on cards, highlighted parts of them. Stayed up late, spent at least 2 hours on them, what with the trip to the store, and then left them on the computer table. I didn't have time to go back and get them.

It's mid afternoon and I'm not awake enough yet to have a noooo moment. I'll discover it later tonight.

Volunteering at my son's school library. This morning I walked in and felt my heart sink. The two big carts for fiction and nonfiction (four shelves each) were all jumbled up with five types of fiction and all of the nonfiction all over the place, and some bookshelves were empty with big stacks of books on benches. The librarian explained to me that she had been moving some of the books, which explained the stacks, but the carts took me about an hour to sort correctly. With three people helping, we usually get everything shelved, but just couldn't finish in the three hours today.

It will be interesting to see what I'll walk into on Wednesday there. (Betting dollars to donuts the rest of those books don't get shelved and I'll have another cart full of chaos!)

InMy30's: I'm so sorry! I know what you mean about loving to have them home half-day for just another year. Kiddo starts full days in first grade next year and I'm going to miss our downtime.

I just got back from the garden store. Bought what I thought was enough wire fence to keep our beagle out of the raised garden bed. Turned out I looked at the tag wrong and I only bought enough to cover 1/3 of what I need. Now I have to haul the kids back into the car in the heat.

Nnnnoooooooooooo!!!!

Yesterday was fine but Sunday I was racing to meet a mom at the park with the kids. I had to run errands so they had not eaten lunch. I threw plates together and put them in the car with their food. When we got to the park I sat on the bench exhausted. Looked over at DD and saw a plate that had blown right into the front of her. Ranch dip all over her clothes.

Accidentally locked myself (and dd) out of the house this morning too. Doh! Bad M..

I kinda of had a similar thing happen to me as you MommyR. Earlier today, while taking care of two sick kids, I finished loading the dishwasher, closed the door and started it, only to have it finish and me realize that the gel-pac for the dishwasher was still sitting on the counter. So, I had to rerun the dishwasher to ensure the dishes were clean this time. I also, put a pot of water on the stove to make some tea and after about 30 mins. I couldn't figure out why the water wasn't boiling only to discover that I never turned the pot on.....been a lot of nnnnooooooo today.

Bad clothes day. These items will go directly into the Yard Sale bin for this months community Boot Sale!

I look a hot mess at work today!

Haven't had one yet. But yesterday was chock full of enough for three days!

Then again the night is still young.

I rearranged my schedule to work in another office this afternoon that was closer to where my daughter's softball game was and then they cancelled it so I drove 35 miles back...with gas at $4.39/gallon that kinda sucked

When my son opened the door from our house to the garage, letting the dog out into the open garage. The dog bolted!

We are glad there was a neighbor nearby on a walk the Hilo gladly went to say hi and she was kind enough to grab his collar!!

Ugh... :-(

This one was two days ago, but I figured I got all of my Nooooo moments for the week out of the way in one shot. Or one clink, actually.

I buy milk in glass bottles, and am very careful with them, but as I was hoisting them from the floor of the passenger side across my lap to get out of the car, two bottles clinked together, seemingly gently. The bottom corner broke out of one of them. You never realize how much milk is in a single 1/2 gallon bottle of milk. When the whole thing gushes out of the bottle onto your lap and soaks into your clothes, your car's upholstery, and pools on the carpet, you realize that it's a LOT of milk, and it's wicked cold to boot. And no matter how quickly you get the shop vac out and commence damage control, the soaked-in milk is going to sit in the upholstery and carpet and sour and stink, especially now that warm weather has arrived. I figure this nooooo moment is going to last me a t least a month.

It wasn't today but my NNNNnnnnnnoooooooooooooo moment was at dinner. We ended up, for some reason, eating later than usual. My hubby and I were starving and we had prepared the meal together, put it in the oven, set the timer. 40 mins or so later, timer goes off, we cannot wait to eat! We get it out of the oven...why isn't it done yet??? This is so weird...oven must be out...Nope...we forgot to turn the oven on! lolol So it's really late in the evening...almost bedtime but we spent another 40 mins to eat after turning the oven on finally & pre-heated. I had to slap my head and go DUH. What more could've been said lol.
