Post your dumb moments here
Haven't had a thread like this in a while, and I was reminded of that by my own stupidity this morning.
We have a keurig (one cup brewing machine) at work. I've got my little process set up to get everything I need to get a quick cup of coffee with milk in it, but apparently this morning, forgot the step of "place cup under spout of machine". An entire cup of coffee brewed before I realized it was just going all over the counter.
Moron.
Okay... who's next?
Re: Post your dumb moments here
I seriously need to write my dumb moments down. There are sooo many and then when there is a post like this I blank. I have a sort of one I guess.
We have been going back and forth like crazy about a (mini) chandelier for the nursery. I finally found one that I thought was suitable. It is online which I knew dh might fight because he still does not want to order one online. So I sent him the link and he asks me later that evening "so you want to order, for our nursery, a fixture that get's horrible reviews for wiring(problems) and ease of installation??". I don't even remember what one it was anymore but the list of poor reviews was pretty long. Whoops.

I've become pretty flakey lately. Pregnancy brain is starting to get bad. DH says he's even being infected by it.
Yesterday I got to use my new paint sprayer attachment for our air compressor to start spraying the doors in the house.
I thought the container I had said the top was 2 quarts, so I put in the paint, then measured the water and added. The first coat was super thin and the four us (DH & I and my parents) were all thinking maybe the sprayer won't be a timesaver. Well after the first coat my mom and I went into the shed and I looked at the container and went "oh umm, this is only a quart, no wonder the paint was so thin." Whoops! The second went out a ton better once I learned to read and measure.

I've got one. Saturday night when we got home, Dunc and I get on the long term shuttle and the driver says "do you have your slip where you parked?". I'm like... "um yeah... let me see if I can find it," and I proceed to dig through my bag, Dunc's diaper bag, my wallet, everything and I can't find it. I remembered we were in row F in the middle 3's.. the driver is just rolling his eyes at me and the other people on the bus were like "oh... that poor mom", "good lord lady..." etc. So he drops everyone else off and we go looking for my car, which incedentally was in row F in the middle 3's... we get home and I'm getting ready for bed and I empty out my pockets and low and behold, what's there? MY PARKING SLIP! Then I remember I had put it in my pocket that morning so I wouldn't have to dig around for it!
I tell ya, I really feel like some days I am loosing it!
O.M.G. I would soooo be kicking myself!
