honours for stupidity

by mommyofWHAComment Published at 08:0908:095 comments5 comments114 Visits114 VisitsReport
Ok its been a while since I have blogged ... the days just seem to get away from me, but I just had to write about my unbelievable level of stupidity yesterday. My loving hubby bought me a beautiful stove that was being delivered yesterday so I pulled out my old stove to clean out underneath of it. We have a very old home, nearly 100 years old, so my stove outlet is not in the wall like normal houses, instead the box is on a 5 foot long cord that was tucked into the space underneath the stove. Well I thought I would be nice to the delivery guys and unplug the stove and push it out of the way .. ya right. Well here I am .. metal box that should have been in the wall in one hand, plug for the stove in the other .. pulling with all my might. Well I manage to get it pulled out half way when it gets stuck, so stupid me puts my fingers in the space between the plug and box to try and pull harder and touched the plug prong with my finger .. ZZZZZZZAAAAAAAAAAPPPPPPPPPP .. wow took for about 30 seconds or so to let go. Made a complete connection, from the left hand, through my body to the right hand. Well I thought I was ok, called hubby at work, told him what happened, listen to him yell at me for a few mins haha, then called my friend. After I was done talking to her I didnt feel well, had this metalic taste in my mouth and was having troubles walking and swallowing. Call hubby again, he rushes home and takes me to emerg. Listen to the dr give me the speach about letting trained professionals do that blah blah then sets me up with a ecg, as the volt went straight through my heart, as well as took 8 viles of blood to be sure I didnt damage my heart or organs. Off he goes to see other patients, and here I am on the bed, waiting patiently. Then I got cold, so cold, cant even tell you how cold, nurse happened to walk by and saw I was shivering uncontrollably, gave me a whole bunch of blankets and called the dr over. Apparently my feet, hands and lips where blue!! Said I was in shock but it would wear off, and that all my tests where fine thankfully! Sent me home, I was exhausted and freezing, but happy to be home. Poor Hannah had to sit here watching me pull off all the sticky tabs from the ecg, but was so sweet, hugged and kissed me after each one!!! Today I am feeling better.. can actually feel my lips and nose, which where completely numb by the time I got to the hospital but my throat and tongue are  crazy sore, dr said I  burnt both of them quite badly .. so my advice for the day .. Dont do what I did ... electrocution REALLY HURTS!!!

Argh cold season

by mommyofWHAComment Published at 16:0716:070 comments0 comments63 Visits63 VisitsReport
Well its official .. the kids have the first cold of the "season", of course it just has to happen 2 days before school starts.. Will had better be well by Tues, or I may just go right over the edge lol. Ayla is a crawling crazy woman, coughing, gagging, nose a runnin crawler.. nothin slows her down!!! Bill has been absent pretty much since Wed, been living in the hospital with his mom, sister, her fiancee, and aunt and uncle while they wait and see what will happen to his grandpa, its been hard on us too, especially Will who seems to think that Bill has moved out, even though we both tell him continuously, he still brings up scenarios like well if daddy never comes home then how am I going to go to school .. different things like that. Poor little guy, so confused! Hannah has turned from asking why all the time to NO NO NO NO NO NO NO ... ahhhhhhhh and then gives me the "look", the one where they cross there arms,  look at you out of the corner of her eye and say no. Or else do whatever you dont want her to do she does while she smirks at ya ... argh, she just came to me for some lovin and is running a fever .. off to be dr mom again.
