Today I was so proud of myself because it was in the crockpot and ready to go....I just went in there and stirred it wondering why it still looked the same as when I put it in...Thats when I realize that its not plugged in... . Why does this stuff keep happening to me?? Now its after 3pm and I can only hope that its done by dinner time or I will have to feed the kids something else and we will eat late.

EvesMom replied: Awe, don't feel stupid. It happens to the best of us. I've done things like that many times.

Insanemomof3 replied: OMG I do things like that ALL the time. LOL Hope it is done in time!

mckayleesmom replied:
Well, I did cook the beans first...so lets hope and pray.

Maddie&EthansMom replied: That's a classic Aimee mistake.

I bet it will be done since you cooked the beans first.

MyLuvBugs replied: DOH! I hate when that stuff happens. I tried to Vaccum a couple weeks ago and finally realized why it wouldn't turn on....not plugged in. It happens to all of us. Give the kids a snack later and hopefully, they can eat a little late too.

kayla's mama replied: That happens more times than I would like to admit. Jason calls those the Jessica moments ( we watched the Newlyweds on MTV )

Well, hope dinner is done in time

Crystalina replied: That happend to me with my treadmill. I put the little key in, plugged it in and it wouldn't work. I was so darn frusterated. I called my DH and told him what was going on and he said he would look at it when he got home (2 days later). Meanwhile I kept going back and forth trying to figure it out. I even moved it across the room (that was work) to another outlet thinking maybe for SOME reason the original outlet couldn't handle the power ( duh, I'd always used it on that outlet.). DH finally comes home and fiddles with it for about 30 seconds and leans down and flips a switch towards the bottom. And wouldn't you know...it worked. He said "It would help if you switched the button to ON."
I'm sure he thinks I'm an idiot.

In my defense though, when I first bought it he turned it to the on position and I never turned it off. THE KIDS MUST HAVE DONE IT!

Crystalina replied: P.S.
After the whole episode I was too tired to use it.

AshleyRose replied: I almost did that one day but caught myself before it got too late .

Kated replied: I have done things like that all the time! I put stuff in the oven and get upset cause its not getting hot and realize I never turned it on.

CantWait replied: DUH!!!!!!!!, hope dinner is ready in time to eat.

holley79 replied: Sounds like something I would do. I got all the way out to the Sheriff's Office to turn in my return to work paperwork and it was still on my dining room table.

PhiMuMommy replied: i have done that way too many times to count. once i even stuck the food in the fridge instead of the stove...... i went to get it out and had to search for it... i guess i was distracted..lol.
