Funny Things your have done!

I was making a cup of coffee, instead of going to the fridge to take the milk out I put the kettle in the fridge.

Grammaretto

🤣😂😅 sorry to laugh but these are very funny.
I have found where I left my car and house keys. In the front door which is rather stiff so I came in the back door which has a keypad. I think my keys could have been there for days.

My actual worst was soon after DC1 was born I went shopping for new clothes, taking my sleeping baby in the big pram. I parked the pram outside the department store we did in those days and browsed for clothes. I must have exited the shop through a different door because I was halfway home before I remembered the baby.
Luckily he was still there and still asleep.

I did exactly the same thing with my first baby, except I left him in the store rather than outside. 😳

One summer a couple of years ago I was sat outside having a drink after removing my nail polish obviously not concentrating I picked up the nail polish remover and mistakenly drank that 🤦‍♀️ spat it out on the grass pdq though 😂 My husband was in fits of laughter!

That's a lovely story Cagsy .

My DH had 2 funerals on the same day at the same church. It was St Giles in Edinburgh so rather big and grand.
His boss from work's was in the morning and his uncle's in the afternoon. His uncle was a high heid-yin of the city.
He decided to stay behind and wait but the church staff had other ideas. They assumed he was a tramp looking for a cosy place to sit and tried to usher him out!

Not sure if everyone will think it’s funny but I once attended a funeral at the local crem of the husband of a member of the church I was also a member of at the time. They were a bit of a sad family, some special needs and a bit dysfunctional so I felt I should go and show some support. When I got there I was surprised to see so many mourners but also saw our vicar so felt relieved. I was at the very back of the chapel listening carefully as our vicar spoke warm words about this wonderful mother and grandmother and realised I was at the wrong funeral! Despite never knowing this woman or any of her family I found myself wiping away tears at the lovely tributes paid to her. I started to panic as I thought about the end of the service and how I was going to explain myself to the family as we exited the chapel. I managed to be last out and went straight to our vicar who expressed her surprise at my knowing the family, explaining that I didn’t she hugged me and swung me around so she was facing away from the family. She was laughing and telling me she could always rely on me to cheer her up. I left with my tail between my legs and returned that afternoon for the ‘right funeral’.

We once went to a theatre for a show we had booked.
I remember we were quite early, fortunately.
Found our seats and duly sat down.
As the theatre began to fill we caught sight of others who had bought programmes - for an entirely different performance.
Realisation dawned slowly. We were a day early.
Very embarrassed we slinked/slunk? out of the theatre trying desperately to look nonchalant.
We weren’t even retired at the time so there really was no excuse for not knowing what day it was.

The local vicar was a governor at our school and his children also attended. One morning he dropped the children off and then went to speak to the head, leaving by the front door. Much later he came rushing back through school to retrieve their new born child that was sleeping soundly in his pram in the playground.

I was waiting the expected “forever” in the eye hospital A&E. Having been there before, I had taken my knitting and a book with me.
When I got called, I put the knitting in my bag, got up and fell flat on my face. My wool had tangled up around my legs!
Everyone was very kind, but the only thing injured was my pride!

I was in a hurry to put on a little make up before we went out and grabbed a lip liner instead of my eyebrow pencil. It delayed out departure, as I had to use warm soapy water to remove my one bright pink eyebrow.!!

We once turned up at nthe Festival Hall for a major concert, but couldn’t find the right auditorium - there are several. Eventually asked a couple of staff, who checked our tickets.

‘Er, you have the right date, but the wrong year!’

We were a whole year early!

I ALMOST tipped my turkey carcass stock down the sink today, but just stopped myself in time and grabbed a jug. I smiled to myself as I recalled that we’d had that conversation on here not so long ago, so I knew I wasn’t alone in doing it! Years ago, as the harassed mother of three boys, I took pork chops out of the freezer and in the middle of the night suddenly couldn’t remember what I’d done with them. The next day, I searched high and low, but to no avail. They turned up eventually in the cupboard where I remembered I had also been putting some plates back at the same time, as you do…

I recently phoned the Liverpool Everyman Theatre to book tickets for the Cheltenham Everyman Theatre. The chap in the box office was very surprised to learn they are going to be putting on a show that they aren't.

I tripped over the bright yellow sign in the supermarket aisle that had been put there to warn customers to be careful.

I have watched my spaghetti slither down the plughole after tipping it into the colander to drain it instead of into the sieve.

I have taught a whole morning with a clothes peg hanging from my blouse, and not one person told me. Another time I was wearing my cardigan inside out.

And yes, I have watched my hair turn white as I sprayed it with deodorant instead of hair spray.

I did realise what I’d done fairly quickly!

I once put the empty milk bottles in the bed and the hot water bottle on the doorstep. I was only about 30 at the time, so I can’t say age was an excuse.

Boadicea My mum once started to clean her teeth with Veet hair removal cream that was in a tube.

My mother once sprayed her hair with furniture polish, rather than hairspray. To be entirely fair, she was being driven to distraction by her own mother, with dementia, who was staying at the time.

One thing I’ve done (I’m sure others can relate!) is to have boiled up a chicken carcass to make a nice stock - and then drained it through a colander down the sink! 😱

Talking of sprays, while doing a spring clean I thought how much improved my furniture polish was. I later noticed I'd been polishing using the fly spray.

I'm sure we've all done the grabbing-the-hairspray-instead-of-the-spray-deodorant thing but I went one better:
When another carer and I were looking after an end-of-life client and were both stressed and tired, I cleaned my teeth before bed and thought my toothpaste tasted a bit strange (it was, I thought, a brand I hadn't used for a while) and made my tongue numb...on checking the tube I realised I had just cleaned my teeth with my haemhorrhoid cream!

We stayed in a seaside B&B a few years ago. We went for a late evening stroll and made our way back to the little hotel. Without thinking I locked the front door behind us and we went up to our room.
The next morning at breakfast the dining room was awash with disgruntled guests who had been unable to get back into the hotel after evening outings. Apparently one slightly sozzled guest decided to break in through a window and unlock and open the front door.
My DH thought it was hilarious but I was mortified. I was too cowardly to own up!

Driving home on the M4 a few days ago we ran over Father Christmas 😮

It looked like a red bag or strip of material as we drove towards it then when we reached it realised it was a Father Christmas doll. Still traumatised.

It’s not what I do, it’s what I don’t do…….
Posted a thankyou card to my GS ‘s gf’s parents, for inviting me to their Xmas Lunch . The gammon was perfection itself . But, thinking about it now, I think I forgot to add thanks for the stunning hand-crocheted (?) cushion cover and other gifts. 😫

With the menopause raging a couple of nights ago, about 12:15 am, I just HAD to have a yoghurt, so I crashed out of bed and into the kitchen, went to the fridge, grabbed the yoghurt, and went to the drawer for the spoon.

Once finished, I cleaned and dried the spoon, cleaned the pot and dumped it in the recycle bin in the kitchen, put the spoon on the cheese shelf in the fridge, had a shower, took 2 Paracetamol with Dr Pepper, made up 2 hot water bottles and crashed back to bed.

About 15 minutes later, I realised what I'd done with the spoon!

The DCs had a little outdoor table and chairs with a parasol. I used to put toys out on the table and they would play for hours.

One day when it was warm I sat down in one of the chairs and played with them for a while. Finally I had to get up to go and do something and when I stood up the little chair came with me. The DCs thought it was hilarious to see mummy wearing a chair on her bottom.
