Birthday Diva #4

OK, so this morning it hit me that I should probably not tell you all of this stuff about me because.....
You now know what a dork I truly am....lol.
Do you remember Erma Bombeck? She wrote hilarious books about her family life.
Hollie, thank you for pointing out that that is MY life as well....lol.
Ok so.... today's story is more about the day I gave my brother a heart attack ( sorry Blair... ).
Blair and I were home alone one day while our mom was at work. I was about maybe 5, that would have made him around 12.
And..... pretending I was driving a car, I used a bobbie pin... for a key.... I stuck it in the closest
empty recepticle close to me... you guessed it... a light socket.
It blew me backwards and shot sparks out. Poor Blair...lol... he he he.... it's not really funny... *snort*.. He started to cry, smoke was coming out of the wall and off my finger.... bahahahahah... he called my mom, and my grandma had to leave work to come and check on me. I was in so much trouble!
it was a...
ShOcKiNg ExPeRiEnCe....lol!

Sounds like you were quite a handful when you were young (maybe still are LOL). Makes me wonder what you have in store for us tomorrow!

Nikki, I have a bobbie pin story (those darn things). My Mom used to clean out the wax in our ears with bobbie pins. (long time ago before Q-tips!) My twin sister was sleeping and I decided to clean out her ear for her with a bobbie pin, silly me, I punctured her ear drum and my Mom had to take her to the doctors right away. I cried because I wanted to go with my twin to the doctors but my Mom said absolutely not I had to stay at home. Any time I hear the word bobbie pin I remember they can be very dangerous in the hand of a five year old! Happy Birthday! Gwyn

Patty said...

Wow...that's just crazy! I was watching my two youngest grandsons today, and when I was changing the 8 month old's diaper, the 18th month old decided to plug & unplug the fan in the outlet in the room!! I of course yelled out "NO" in a loud (drop it or I will kill you) voice and it worked!! Scary!!

Your poor brother! Did they lock you up in room with padded walls after this second time where you beat death? :o) The image is adorable and I really do enjoy reading your stories. I'm just thinking what story will you put on here tomorrow.

Lol. That's so funny. My sister and her friend did the same thing when they were about 3 or 4. My mom was not a happy camper.

Funny and great story. Thanks for the cute image.

Embley Veronica said...

That's just too funny, though I'm sure it wasn't at the time! Thank you so much for sharing this story. I've been feeling awful lately and you made me smile for several minutes, solid. :) You rule.

Happiest of birthdays and many returns of the day!

Your stories are too funny! When I was nine, my mom went grocery shopping and left me in charge of my sisters, 8, 2 and 2 months. The 2 year old let us know what she thought of the baby, she got a meat fork and stabbed her in the head as I was holding her. Yes, head wounds bleed! As this was way before cell phones, I couldn't call mom. Dad was helping my uncle build their house and the temporary phone was not in the house but outside. My uncle answered it but had no clue as to what I was saying. He got my dad. That's what I wanted. Dad couldn't understand me either but finally came home, after mom got back. And yes, 41 years later, my sister can show you where that fork went in her head. I think my other sister still wonders what she did wrong.
