Sounds Kinda Familiar

I'm not making light of death. Not at all. But I read THIS over at Florida Cracker's place and realized this could very well have been me. And had to kinda laugh. Sorta.

Y'all have heard I'm not the most graceful. Well, when I moved into the postage stamp house I got myself in a little jam. TNT and Teresa were there to help me unpack and get settled. Once the movers got the truck unloaded I decided I didn't like the way they loaded the storage room. So I went in to "fix" it.

Now, I realize there is no way to paint the picture for you, but I'm gonna try. That room was top to bottom boxes and furniture. Literally. I climb up on stuff and crawled over boxes to get to an empty space that I could move stuff into. Keep in mind - I am NOT a little girl. And there was barely crawling space between the stuff and the ceiling. Well, I got in but couldn't get out. The three of us were laughing so hard.....I was almost afraid I'd have to pee and couldn't get out - which made us laugh even harder.

About that time T1G shows up to make sure we were all still standing to find THAT lovely situation. He asked what was so funny and between gasps of air TnT & Teresa explain that I'm stuck. Trapped. Cornered as it were.

Well, eventually I got out. But I was told to not go playin' in the storage room unless someone was there to dig me out.

And that's not the only time I've done stuff like that. And had to be rescued. It's a problem I have. I get so focused on what I want to do I don't see the whole picture - until it's too late.

Anyway - like I said, I'm not making fun of the situation. It's just a lesson I think I had better learn.....
