Did you ever mix up your glue stick with your Chapstick; that'd be a disaster. What about Crazy Glue and your eyedrops?

Any you can think of ?

There was plenty of times I went to put the Windex in the fridge and the milk in the cleaning closet. Nothing like yours - ouch! Fine permanent market with eyeliner?

I occasionally mix up eyeliner and lipliner! I usually catch myself in time, though. Smile

I do the cereal in the fridge/milk in the cabinet thing, too.

I had invited guest over and was just about finished with making the salad. Instead of taking the oil I took bleach and was about to pure it in. DH started screaming OMG what are you holding! So it almost happened.

My mil once put fish sauce on the hot plate thinking it was chicken soup.
Someone I know once cooked something which needed tomatoes, she grabbed a sharon fruit which looks similiar to tomatoe and used that by mistake.

On summer, when I was about six years old, my family went to the country for a month. My mom was alone all week with me and my siblings (there were 5 of us at the time) and my dad worked in the city and came up for weekends. So my mom was sort of at her wit's end.

One evening she opened the fridge looking to see what she had to make for dinner, and found a shopping bad she didn't remember putting there. Hoping it was something she can turn into a tasty dinner, she opened it, and found......my baby sister's dirty diaper!

How about red spray paint instead of deodorant? (This really happened; thankfully not to me!)

I once almost put cinnamon in my cholent instead of cumin (I was tired and just looked at the first letter).

I had a lot of more "almosts" but can't remember any now.

Once used icy-hot instead of deoderant!! man did that sting! the thing that stills gets me is why on earth I put it under both arms- surely I should have figured it out after one.... nope.... Just such a habit to do both, that I icy-hot'd them both!

That reminds me I once put a brand new red towel into a load of white shirts, towels and underwear!!
it took 4 washes of bleach to make the whites go white with a spot of pink - there went all my white undies Very Happy
