"Hello, My Name Is Stacey....

....And I'm A Moron."

Do they have help groups for this?
If so, sign me up!
I'm doing an intervention on myself!! :)

Remember when I was hurrying and not paying attention and did this:

Yup, sewed my own finger (which has healed quite nicely, thank you)
while making these bedskirts for my daughters:

Well, I've done it again.

(Nope, all of my fingers and toes are safe and sound.)

This time, I've hurt my house!

I got a call the other day that someone wanted to show our house.
Yippee!!!

You see this thing below?
It's my daughter's bathroom shower curtain.

Isn't it all cute and stripey and cheerful?

Now, this shower curtain is attached to a spring-loaded rod.

Did you know that this rod also has another use?

It can hold clothes and towels that are air drying.

But did you also know that if you are feeling sorry for yourself because you think that no one wants to see your house and buy it, and you don't do your daily checklist for getting the house in order,
that THAT is the exact time that someone will want to see it?!!

And that you will rush around,
and just GRAB those clothes off of the shower rod?

And that THE ROD WILL FALL OFF
and DO THIS:

It will take a nice big chunky CHIP out of the tub.

And now you have to call and pay for some kind of tub repair person to fix your dumb mistake.

Seriously, people.
*sigh*
You would have thought I had learned to slow down and pay attention after I had
"The Sewing My Finger Incident".
But it seems that I am hard-headed and don't learn very well!! :)

Now I am definitely going to:
1. Be prepared. (Good motto. They should really teach that to kids...;)
2. Take a breath and get things done in a timely manner.
3. Pay attention to what I'm doing.

Otherwise, I may drive us into debt with medical and home repair bills!!! LOL!!



Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to call a tub repair person and then eat some ice cream.
Ice cream makes everything better, doesn't it?!!
