Wasn't a smart move on my part.

One day when I was cleaning, I grabbed the yellow furniture polish can and dusted everything in the living room, including the piano. THEN I realized I had picked up the Lysol can instead of the furniture polish. I was very relieved that the finish of all the wooden surfaces was not damaged!

Almost did the same thing with the Fray Check as my bottle of oil was almost the exact same size!!!! but I happened to notice it just as I was about to put a drop on the machine. I was shaking for a bit after that!! LOL!!!!

Many, many naps ago, when I was in my twenties, and thought I knew it all. I thought I would help out my hubby by "servicing" my own car. How hard could it be? Unfortunately, I put water where there oil should have gone and oil in the radiator! Having 3 boys under 5 years old running around like little wild animals at the time didn't help one bit at all either. Anywho, thank goodess, I rethought that whole operation and called my Daddy and confided my misadventure to him. He told me, "Under no circumstances, to start that durn car up!" "I'll be right over! He fixed the problem. And never breathed a word. TO ANYONE, EVER. God bless his soul. No wonder little girls love their Daddies soon much. How dumb can ya get?

Was on vacation and getting ready to catch a plane and head home. At the very last minute I decided I just had to wash my hair ( why? Who knows!!!) Instead of grabbing my hair spray I grabbed a can of spray starch and generously coated my hair and that was how I had to fly home.....just out of time!
