What stupid thing do you keep doing?

[SpongeBobJudgeyPants]

I'll start. Despite putting moisturiser on my face every morning for the last 40 odd years, I constantly squeeze out too much, resulting in a face that makes my mascara run, or greasy hands from rubbing it into them to use the excess. What's yours?

Burning the roof of my mouth when eating pizza. Every time.

I reckon 3 out of 5 days a week I forget my work badge. Despite needing it to get IN the building. Have worked there 20 years.

I will never understand my own level of stupid.

I lose umbrellas at a frankly alarming rate. And I have to use ear drops nightly... EVERY night I drop them down the back of the radiator trying to put the bottle on the windowsill.

I keep thinking of putting a post-it note for myself but wouldn't take any notice of it

Squeezing spots and making them worse.

I'm beginning to feel better! Keep them coming please!

Job hopping. I'm 45🙄

Walking into the ladders of DS's bed in bare feet. Broken my toes five times up to now.

Silently screaming so as not to wake him up is an art form.

leaving it to the last minute to get ready, i have an appalling sense of time and never know how long anything takes from boiling broccoli to putting on mascara

Flirting inappropriately

Staying up till 1 instead of 11 like I'd planned to.

I'm sure I've got hundreds of these...but whilst I think about it, I'm placemarking

Putting off World Sodding Book Day until the night before, and then spending a shit tonne of money on a too small, all that's left, supermarket costume, of a "character"no child of mine has ever read.

Every year, so far. My children are not my biggest fans.

I always get 5 minutes down the road and worry about if I’ve switched my straighteners off! Invariably I have but every day I don’t remember having done so and panic!

Staying up too late.

Absentmindedly eating crap I don't particularly want.

Taking all the skin off the roof of my mouth when eating pizza, like a pp. Every time.

Sitting around telling myself I'll get the tasks I need to do done, then running round doing a half-arsed job in the hour before school pick up.

The last one is particular galling as I see the same thing happening with ds and feel like a massive hypocrite trying to help him manage his time better. I am getting better though.....

Getting distracted on mumsnet and going to bed much later than planned

Overfilling my glass when I wedge it h see the fridge tap and then go and do something else.

Gossiping too much.

Eating hot food and burning my mouth.

Staying up late doing crap like this on my phone instead of reading books.

Eating healthy all day and feel so pleased with myself then ruin it every single night by eating chocolate and biscuits in bed.

Staying up far too late, putting off all the jobs until the last hour before school pickup, wearing inappropriate shoes for the weather, especially near the end of winter as I'm just so fed up of sodding boots every single bloody day, forgetting to turn the heating off when I go out, leaving laundry in the dryer so it dries unwearably wrinkled, drinking far too much coffee and pissing like a racehorse, walking into the door handle on the kitchen door (about four times a week), going into waterstones on payday.

I'm a walking disaster really.

Hitting snooze on nursery day and then flapping around like a headless chicken!

In fact hitting snooze anytime. It's like torture and I think why do I do this to myself?!

Sitting with the toddler to get her to sleep. Despite me vowing every night I will work on letting her settle herself. And every night I still sit here stroking her back

Managing my time badly.....I can waste hours doing god knows what and end up rushing every single day. It's a horrible way to live but I still can't get my act together.

Farting loudly and thinking no-one can hear me because I have my headphones on.

Durrrrr......

Always burning my mouth on soup.

Not me but my dear oh used to keep a glass of water on his nightstand. Invariably the night's sleep would be broken by the sound of him going "urgh!" and the sound of falling glass and water. In the end i got him to keep his glass in the bathroom.

As for me i frequently leave the house see that its sunny and have to return for my sunglasses, even though all our Windies are open and i know full week that it's sunny and have usually commented on the pretty day.
