Mowing the lawn with an electric lawnmower, running over the cord and then picking up the cord to see "what all the little wires were that were sticking out". Yep!!! Got electrocuted, knew I was being fried and could do nothing about it and just hoped that I was screaming. Hubby came to the rescue, Ambulance took me away and I lived to tell the story!! DUMB - you bet!!

I stopped my husband from doing something dumb a few months ago.
We had pulled into a gas station to put gas in his truck. He filled the tank, paid at the pump and got back in the car to drive away. He started the engine and I said, "Um, honey?" and asked him if he planned to remove the pump's fuel hose from his tank before we left.

Yikes!!! I did that once. In the days before pay at the pump, I put the nozzle in, started the gas and went into the store to get some other stuff. When I came back out, I forgot to take the nozzle out. It was still turned on and when the handle comes off of the hose while it is still turned on, gas spews everywhere. Trying to catch that hose was fun.
boy did I feel like an idiot. The clerk was nice though. She said it happened about once a week.

Hey....hubby & I did that once, only it was the drive in movies. 30++ years ago drove away with one of those big bulky speakers still attached to the window. I think I still have that thing somewhere in the attic....wonder if it would sell on Ebay. Hmmmmm...I wonder what the movie was
Looks like 4th time's the charm for you! Congrats!
I haven't decided whether I want to marry for love next time or just pick some geezer w/one foot in the grave, one foot on a pile of money, and no living children. Put a pound of butter in everything I cook for him, encourage him to smoke... but wait, that would make me cold and calculating.
