Perhaps I am Not Bright Enough to be Banded

So I am getting ready for my psych evaluation today and just enjoying the peace of being alone in my room (I have five kids and am sitting this summer for my niece and nephew).

I put my hair up, got it all nice and curled and pretty for the day.....and ran out of hair spray. Luckily, I had bought another can so I grabbed it, ripped the lid off, shut my eyes and sprayed. Almost immediately, I noticed that it sprayed different (kind of like when the hairspray nozzle is full of hair spray) but I sprayed anyway.

I finished, opened my eyes, and ..... MY HEAD WAS WHITE! :ohmy: I had inadvertantly bought mousse. It is in the same shaped can as my hairspray, same color and everything. There was a big ole 60% off label over the area that says mousse.

Needless to say, I was shocked.

I have now cleaned myself up and everything that was behind me. I am once again ready to go to my appointment.

Perhaps I will tell my shrink this story......then again, today, perhaps I won't. :cursing:

hey!

it also made me giggle, but i have done it myself many times!!! You would think i would of learnt my lesson to read the labels properly. And i dont even have the excuse that a label was covering the lettering, just me just being impatient and not reading!!. lol

I am so blind with out my glasses. Picked up a can of "hair spray" sprayed away with my eyes closed. Opened them up and to my amazement I had sprayed my ex-husband athlete foot spray all over my hair.< /p>

Congrats on passing the psych test -- one more step closer -- Woo Hoo!!

And don't feel bad, one time I showed up at a very important business meeting with one brown shoe and one navy blue shoe on, but the worst thing was that one was a pump with a 3 inch heel and one was a flat :wink2:!!!

How in the hell, I managed to walk out the door and not notice this I will never ever know..............

That was so funny! It reminded me of how I sometimes cannot remember if I rinsed out the conditioner in my hair or not when I shower in the morning. I'm not so bright sometimes in the morning!

A couple of weeks ago I went to work with my new shirt on inside out! I had kept trying it on and didn't want to wear it a few times because it was still too tight, but I finally decided to wear it. Fortunately hardly anyone saw me, but someone did notice. She said something like "That's a cute new shirt, but you know it's on inside out, don't you?" How embarassing!

We can all be silly gooses sometimes.

Take care, and thanks for the laugh.

Sue

The deodorant story literally made me LOL!!! That was awesome! Of all the dingbat things I've done in my laugh, I actually haven't sprayed my hair with something weird. Tomorrow is a new day, however!

Thanks for sharing the stories....I'm still smiling.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
