I poured dh an ounce of water when he asked for something to drink 😂

I've done that LOL

and then he looks at me and asks "Can I have a little more than that, please?"

I have also found ice cream in the pantry more times than I'd like to admit.

paid for groceries and left the bags there.
The spanish worker called me back, it was quite mortifying.

Yup, I've done this too. I zipped my purse and started walking away...
It was one of those moments where you quickly look around to see if anyone else spotted you doing that.

Gave medication to the wrong kid. This happened many times to me but luckily kid I would offer the medication too ALWAYS stopped me.

I woke up to give my husband pain medication after surgery. When he sat up, he asked me where the pill is? I took the painkiller that I prepared for him. I slept really well after that... 🙈

Who in the world hasn't baked at least one cake only to find out you forgot, like, the sugar? I mean.. Who is that perfect?!

My daughter still reminds me of The Great Pumpkin Pie Fail of 2014. It was epic. She'd been begging me to make pumpkin pie for her for ages. It's her all time favorite. The pies came out beautifully.

She took one bite, made a face, and spit it out. Now, she's a picky eater, so I thought she was just being difficult. I tried it, and spit it out too! Yep, no sugar. Confused

I sliced up the pies and dried them out in the oven on low heat. They made great dog treats!

I constantly leave my keys in my front door! I’ve had a neighbor knock on my door to tell me I left them in. The mail lady told me once. And sometimes I don’t notice until the next morning when I need them again!
We have an alarm system but someone could have taken our car very easily lol... Bh nothing bad has happened from it ppp

I have also bought groceries and then left them there.. 😳

I have grocery shopped only to realize I forgot my wallet in the car.

I made baked ziti but as soon as I took it out of the oven, couldn't remember if I had self cleaned the oven for milchigs or I had dreamt that little piece of info. So in the garbage the whole thing went. Two days later while I was preparing supper which just so happened to have been what I had made a day before the baked ziti crisis, did it hit me that yes the oven had in fact been self cleaned because I remembered at what point during preps I had actually pressed the self clean button on the oven...

While I was having contractions I was doing last minute laundry and packing up the kids clothes for the week. I had a closet that was on top of the boiler room so that made it a warm closet. What better place to put clothes to dry quickly. I hung up everything and closed the door. Needless to say the clothes definitely had a pungent moldy smell to it.

Also at that same, I was looking for a certain tichel I wanted to wear in the hospital. Couldn't find it anywhere. After coming home from hospital, my kids show me the tichel that had somehow made it into their suitcase.

So this morning I washed a garbage bag full of diapers..

Not even joking you guys.

My wash machine was thrashing I kept checking it so confused what happened.. did this a few times before I realized it was thrashing because a bathroom garbage bag somehow made it in the hamper I dumped into the wash machine this morning, about 6 dirty diaper loaded with water put a lot of weight in my washer causing the spin to be off 🤦🏼‍♀️

Good thing they were contained in a garbage bag though...

Fun thread!

Accidentally dialed my boss instead of my husband, and gave him my entire Costco list. I give my boss credit for patiently waiting while I listed detergent, Pam, olive oil, tissues, paper towels, freshwipes, Tylenol and men's deodorant before saying,

"Will you be picking this up from my house or should I just bring it to the office with me?" Can't Believe It

OMG. I can't stop laughing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happens especially postpartum.... putting my stuff into other people's wagon while grocery shopping.

Coincidentally, sometimes I'll find stuff I never buy in my wagon. Makes me feel better. Im not the only one doing that.

I woke up during the night from my ASD kid jumping on me an pulling my hair. I'm pretty sure I meant to say go back to sleep, but for some reason, I told him to go upstairs. That makes no sense since I live in an apartment and there is no way I would send ds up or downstairs himself. I wonder what I was dreaming about. At least I can't blame him this time for not listening to his crazy mother.

Today I asked DD to please put the pamper in the washing machine and the laundry in the garbage can!
My kids are also getting a mom brain. I told other DD to put the baby's bottle on the counter, she went to put it on her dresser.
