wanna hear something funny??

Dear Lord, thank you for letting me know that I'm not alone......

I did the same thing last night with the oven. Put a casserole in the oven then sat down to watch the Olympics and watching the clock at the same time. After 30 minutes went to get the casserole out and so proud of myself for getting supper done on time for once. It was not bubbling like it should have been. Then noticed the oven was cold. Duh!!!

Also, about the phones, my SIL called me once at home as I was getting ready to walk out of the house. Picked up the cordless phone, got in the car and kept on talking. I got to wondering why the phone started beeping as I drove down the road until it went off. I just died laughing and called her back on my cell. The phone does pick up a really long way down my road though.

I've done the "forgot to turn on the crockpot" thingy sooo many times.....now I'm surprised when I walk in the house and it actually smells like food

I'm loving the one about cooking the steak in the stove drawer

 

[kirbydog48]

Thanks I think? LOL

I know I have so many things like that I can't begin to remember them all..but the best one I do is go to a room and stand in the door way and not remember why I went there..I did that 3x in one day in the SAME room???

I so can relate! I blame it on menopause...

I've gotten spoiled by automatic bathrooms, that I'll stare at the toilet wondering why it's not flushing after I stand up.
Or wonder why the water hasn't shut off when I go to reach for a paper towel.

I do things like this ALL THE TIME!!! It drives DH crazy because he says if I'm like this at 24, how will I be at 50?!

I've tried to cook dinner in the oven drawer as well. It was a brand new oven and how was I to know the bottom drawer wasn't part of the oven? I happily put my chicken in there to bake and left it for 20 minutes. DH came through the kitchen looking for a skillet, opened the drawer and found two pieces of raw chicken He asked me what on earth it was doing in there and I answered him (in my best 'what a stupid question' voice) "well obviously they're cooking!" Not so much...

I worked with a lady that did this very thing. Then she was all embarassed that someone would see the phone in her car.

Same lady also called someone using the speaker phone in the office, she then walked off while it was ringing. All of the sudden we hear someone saying "hello" and her running to get back to her office.

But we have all done things like this. I turned the wrong burner on and it just happened to be a burner with a pan of grease on it. Yup, lovely grease fire. I have also put clothes in the dryer, set it, take the lint out of the filter and then forget to turrn the thing on.

And I am forever starting something for dinner, only to realize at the very end I am missing something. Such as making tacos, got the ground beef cooked, but no taco shells.

I will never forget one of the times I turned on the wrong burner. I was wondering why the oil wasn’t heating up when I started to smell something burning! I realized that a different burner was on and a plastic container had fallen on top of it! That was a mess!

 

[Octoberbride03]

I usually turn on the wrong burner and then wonder why things are taking so long. The light is on, the stove is hot..... oh.... nevermind. (Quick puts the pot on the hot burner....)


Sounds like "The light is on, but nobody's home!"

Yup, that's me. Done that at least twice

I'm finding comfort in this thread..my brain turned to applesauce when I hit 40, and it's not the yummy cinnamon kind, it's that natural chunky low sugar kind. blech.

 

[pigletgirl]

Yep, I've done that while driving! I was freaking because I couldn't find my keys...needless to say they were in the starter.

 

[Tinkmom75]

I have a double oven. I have more than once turned on the top or bottom oven, and then put the food in the wrong oven. I never notice until the food is supposed to be done. You would really think I would notice it didn't feel hot when I put the food in.

But you're not fessing up to leaving a boiling egg in the pan until it's scorched brown because you got too enthralled with the disboards

I have a really gross one. My stepmom always returns things clean. So I picked up my dish that I made seven layer salad in. It was inside a pyrex cool/hot bag when she returned it. I put it away. All the sudden we smelled something and there were these huge black flies. Turns out stepmom didn't clean the dish that time and there was still seven layer salad in it. Uhm bye bye dish that was so sicko

Oh that reminded me of the time I locked my keys in the car with the car running and I didn;t have a spare..
