boyohboyohboy wrote: I was taking the kids to do some grocery shopping, I wanted to get in and out, because they were both a little over due for lunch....well we have a cart full of stuff, when caleb says, " hey mom dont step in that" I look down and see all this what appears to be spag. sauce on the floor, and yes I am stepping in it, I see its all the way at the start of the isle, and I kept walking and caleb says,"mom I think its coming from out cart!" I look and it was! here in the bottom of my cart one of my spag jars had cracked right open and it was all over everything! So go to the end of the isle, and send caleb to the cashier where I can see him to ask for help. They send me a 120 yr old man and some paper towels, and this poor man gets down on his hands and knees, after a while, and starts to clean it up! this young girl comes and stands over him. I assume she was in charge, I asked her if there wasnt a mop so this poor man doesnt have to do the entire isle on his hands and knees..and she says, "this is the best we can do". so I get another cart and start going thru it, and taking stuff out that isnt covered in sauce, and wiping off what i can, and then get ready to go, well then the woman at the cash register yells, you have something else leaking! it was a bottle of cleaner....that was it, I was done. I have no idea why everything I touched was leaking...but my kids were crying, and i was almost there myself. so we got what we had and came home, now i have to go back later and finish my order!!!

it was so embarrassing.

Almost as good as my day earlier this week- I was running late when I was leaving the house, and I went outside and my tire was flat. I call DH to come home & change it, he was annoyed that he had to come home, and he put on the spare.

I start driving, get to the end of the road and the car is driving funny...I get out, AND- my spare tire was flat.

All I could do was cry rolling_smile.gif

I called DH *again*, he came home and got both tired to be dropped off to have them fixed. I considered calling my mom to borrow her van but I decided it was probably best that we just stay home.

However I did once empty a 10lb bag of dog food at the check out counter at Wal-Mart. I had the bag on the bottom of my cart and when I got ready to check out I picked up the to place it on the conveyor belt and it opened spilling all the contents everywhere. ohmy.gif My Dh and kids were mortified and swore they would never shop with me again. And for a few weeks I was known as the dog food lady! tongue.gif
