Anyone noticed that it's always the messiest things that your fingers and thumbs let go of.
eg. full box of fish flakes (couldn't be the nearly empty one of yesterday}

grandsons dribble of chocolate milk (still managed to decorate a complete wall in the conservatory)

and this morning the dogs dry food, although this was not too bad as said dog was put into hoover mode to pick this up.

    I've twice dropped a full glass cold water in my lap. Luckily at home, so I could go and change! This morning it was a cerial bowl - empty, fortunatly :? Things, especially china or glass slide through my grip and it makes me soooo annoyed, especially when my dear husband says ' What did you do that for?' :x Love Sue

    Dropping the butter onto the carpet when putting it in the butter dish :shock:

    The soap in the shower and there are no other cakes in there and no-one to yell to pick it up :shock:

    Dropping an egg when putting them into the rack in the fridge :shock:

    It's always the slipperiest little suckers that get me :x :x :shock: :wink:

    Oh my goodness, yes to all of these. My dogs and cat lurk in the hall until I get the food on the floor.
    I have lost count of the things I drop....I thought it was just me :oops:

    oh boy - I could add loads to this!

    I too have a dog who can be put into hoover mode - don't know how else I would manage to clear up dropped eggs on the kitchen floor. :roll:

    Whatever i drop is usually the very last of something ........ or it lands into the pan I'm using ........ or it falls onto something else and knocks that onto the floor :roll: :roll: :roll:

    and I NEVER learn and always try to catch the stuff, hurting myself in the process!

    It's a good job we can laugh with each other!!! :lol::lol::lol: and at ourselves :wink:

    You're surely not saying people live their lives without using a butter dish :shock: you'll be suggesting people don't use milk jugs or even iron their newspapers before reading them p075.gif:lol:
