Ironing

I'm still trying to live down the Thanksgiving when my nephew was helping
clear off the table and asked if I had intended to serve the stuffing in the
crockpot sitting on the kitchen counter!!!

I thought I was the only one who left the ironing board to heat up. I've
put a pan on the stove and left it to heat up without turning on
the stove. It takes an extra long time for water to boil that way.

This reminds me of a few Thanksgivings ago.....

My husband was at sea and I had the 2 girls. His family came down to
visit. My sister in law and I were in the kitchen cooking away, making
all the side dishes, enjoying ourselves quite a bit. We went back to
check on the turkey after a few hours and neither one of us had remembered
to turn on the oven lol

We will never live that down - every holiday we are together someone will
kindly remind us to check the oven to see if it is on

Maybe not, in the weather we've been having this summer!

We have a scheme here started by the Ambulance service. You have a
special sticker on your door, and when the Ambulance comes they know
to look in the fridge door where you keep a small container (like a
film spool one but white with a green cross on it). Inside is your
name, next of kin, medications, etc. so if you are unable to tell them
the info they need, they know just where to look and it is all written
down.

Such a simple idea but could be a life saver and avoids confusion in
finding a relative who lives 'somewhere in.. I think'!

So medicare forms in the fridge aren't so far from the truth in this
house!

My DH had just finished using the cordless phone in the kitchen when I went
to use it. Not in the cradle, not on the countertop, not on the kitchen
table, nowhere to be found. He had no idea where he had put it but thought
he had hung it up in it's cradle. Drove us crazy. Found it in the junk
drawer - where he also put the pen and paper he used to write down the phone
number he took while on the phone. Geesh, gotta get him some ginkgo!

A new thing has started here. People are being asked to put a number in
their cell phone directory called ICE (for In Case of Emergency) with
your emergency contact persons phone number. Then if you are found hurt
they have someone to call and inform.

Sounds pretty good because you can be hurt anywhere, not just at home,
and many people carry cell phones now.

Yes, that was in our new paper too, Marcella. Thank you for the
timely reminder. But I'd read about that ICE thing before it hit
the papers ... got the info from our RCTQ buddies over in UK.
Of course it doesn't help at all if the Cell Phone gets stolen!
