On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me lots and lots of patience. I have always been a klutz and instead of turning everything I touch into gold, I break it. This evening I was trying to make soup, sandwich, and chilly fries for dinner, sounds easy, but I hadn't cut the can properly to the chilly and it was still attached. I thought I could just push hard on it (I probably wasn't because I was too paranoid that I would cut myself) but all of my chilly was squishing out the sides. I knew it was too late now and I was sure I lost half the can to the sink so I pushed a little hard, next thing I knew, I had chilly in my eyes, it was all over the sink, on my nice cream sweaters, and ALL over the windows. Thankfully, James has the most patience I have ever seen someone have and just laughed it off! I now sit here, lightly smelling like chilly with half a bowl left of chilly fries... They're great but it is going to a hassle cleaning that mess!
Moments like this bring back more good memories, like the time I broke the new big screen tv (Shattered, there's no coming back from that and I thought I could hide it but James found out and again laughed it off), burnt the life out of several pots and pans, many sweaters I've shrunken, (he's currently naming the items off that I've broken) and James says that I lost the truck keys and cellphone, both which were on my car and are long gone now. The list goes on and will forever grow, moments like create such a fun twist to the relationship and when we always talk about that one time, we laugh soooo hard!
I remember, right after getting brand spanking new carpet, I spilled bright red fingernail polish all over and my mother lost it (I ran straight for the bathroom, I was so scared of what she would do).
Big question is: James, what is it like living with a klutz and how do you do it?
-"Dangerous and I assume that nothing lasts forever, if it's broken that's okay"
Him and his father give me a hard time about it but they know how to make the situation brighter. If I have burnt the pot, James bends it and says well now we HAVE to throw it away.
