It's O.K. to laugh about this. We do and Snakeman teases me about the perfect butt and head prints I left in the mud.

It just goes to show that when our mothers tell us to always have on clean underwear in case we are in an accident she should mention to have on "some" underware.

I thought of one other that probably takes the cake.

Last summer DH and DD were both out of town and I was trying to be industrious. I was planting potatoes and had read about a process of using mostly seaweed to cover them with.

I took the dogs, DH's truck and a bunch of halibut tubs (picture a garbage can cut off so it's only about 2 feet high and but made of heavier duty plastic) down to the beach. Backed the truck up and let the dogs loose. There were two other people on the beach and the dogs just ran free while I filled the tubs. Then I carted them back to the truck and heaved them into the back of the truck. I pushed the totes farther into the back of the truck but couldn't get one of them to slide far enough to shut the tailgate. So (here's where the bad decisions started) I climbed into the back of the truck, bent over at the waist and started pushing on the tub. Tennis shoes + seaweed + plastic tailgate cover = slippery surface.

Right as I was pushing with all my might my feet went straight out behind me, my hands slipped off the edge of the tub and I went face first into the tub of seaweed. I hit my forehead on the edge of the tub and my legs slammed back down on the tailgate. I jumped right up and of course, my first thought was, "I hope nobody saw that!"

I slammed the tailgate, called the dogs and hightailed it out of there. When I got home I looked in the truck mirror and my forehead was bleeding and I had seaweed hanging off my nose! My arms were scraped and bruised too, but by golly, I got those potatoes planted. The worst part was after I sat down that night for about 30 minutes. I didn't think I'd ever move again!

I fell down the stairs one night,landed on my booty,slid down the last 6 steps( I think the extra 35lbs had something to do with speed) Two days later I had the prettiest really black blue and purple arse. The bad part was it was so bad that my husband wanted to brag on it and all i heard for a month was "show em honey" Micah

Hey it's a good day for me if I haven't spilled whatever I am drinking. Milk, water, coke, whatever. It has to go over at least once a day.




PS - this is a good day.... .so far.

I cut my finger while chopping an onion tonight

Then I Knocked Justins ice tea out of his hand and it spilled on his new sweater.

I was three years old and drinking out of a waterhose tripped and fell down and cut my lip so bad I had to get stitches.

One morning while my dad was driving me to kindergarten, I put on his handcuffs or I thought they were his handscuffs. Turns out they were missing their key. I walked into Lowes with both hands in handcuffs while my dad got a hacksaw.
