That Moment When...
Started by Esther GraceKeirstin
…..when you stupidly leave your nice and expensive guitar in the kids' play room and when you come back, it's all out of tune and nobody confesses to have messed around with the keys or anything. Then you relize, you don't know how to tune your guitar.
big, annoyed, and disappointed facepalm
Keirstin
…..when your ten year old brother is looking very guilty about something and you are trying to figure out why and you relize he's holding scissors and about 20 strands of your hair. His face was a combination of horror, guilt, amazement, surprise, and fear all at the same time.

…you're trying to get through the hall but your sister is blocking most of the walkway, so you turn sideways, but then the space between the buttons on your shirt gets caught on a doorknob and you end up smashing your face into the wall. Now I get a nice swollen lip for a week. :-/ :-)
Esther Grace
…when you discover how nice sleeveless shirts are - and promptly sunburn your shoulders so badly you have to keep them hidden for two weeks.

Yikes! I've done that before… definitely not fun!

Ouchie!

Yeah, I probably should be icing it right now, but then I'd only have one hand free… I'm just hoping the swelling is gone by Wednesday, because that's when we're taking pictures at ballet camp. :-)
Keirstin
Well don't make me be the one keeping you from icing it! I can wait a few minutes! ~probaly~
Try propping it up with a pillow while your typing! Jk jk ;) so sorry! Is it black or blue? My hand got smashed in the door way a few months ago and on my pinkie nail it started showing blood right away underneath it and it's still that way! It's starting to come off and it's looks so gross and scabby and ugly and I'm really wishing I had been more careful! I don't want an ugly or painful hand with all the things I use it for like music, dishes, shaking hands, just being around people….
Sarah
No, you're fine! Usually I have to ice it for about an hour at a time, and even then the swelling goes back up within a few hours. :-/
Haha! It's not black and blue, thankfully– from the outside, you can barely tell anything happened unless you're looking closely. It's all white on the inside, though. :-)
Oh dear! I've lost toenails before, but never a fingernail!
Keirstin
Yeah, I lost a toe nail last year riding a kids modercycle. It wasn't fun and I was doomed to ugly feet for the rest of the summer. Then, after vowing to be more careful, I rode it again, just to get a bloody knee while turning out of the driveway! And now this! Awwww…..
Oh well, it's fine but I'm glad you don't have a black eye or any thing!
Sarah
Oh, ouch!
Haha, yeah, me too. :-)
I should probably get going–it's getting late here, and I still need to do my piano practice before bed. Talk to you later!
Keirstin
Ok! Bye! I was going to ask you, mabe we should start a thread for witnessing stories and opportunities to encourage others? Tell me what you think when you have the chance! Love ya, bye!
Sarah
I was going to ask you, mabe we should start a thread for witnessing stories and opportunities to encourage others? Tell me what you think when you have the chance!
This would be awesome! Do you want to start it, or should I?
Keirstin
You can and I will help! I'll be your personal advisor…. Jk but I think it is a good idea and I'm surprised their isn't one yet! Try to find some good bible verses like the great commission," low, I'm with you always, even to the ends of the earth." I'm sure once we get it started, people will start coming up with their own! ;)
Sarah
It's up! And you can be my personal advisor if you want to; I think everyone can use one of those. ;-)
2 Corinthians 5:17
I think I made one a long time ago, but it's buried underneath everything else. xP
Keirstin
Yay! Or mabe just your friend to ask for help or ideas might be more realistic. ;) it looks great!
Margaret Eddy
… You realize that last year, this many days after the Bible Bee, you would have been writing a poem or parody complaining about Headquarters taking a whole week to announce Nationalists, and even longer to release the extra materials, but this is not last year.
2 Corinthians 5:17

Sarah
That works too. :-)

…When you tell your friend about this great book you were reading and got him excited about reading it and promised to bring it for him next time you see him. Then, after you get home, that awesome book is no where to be found? facepalm

...a spider lands on your glasses during church.
I would probably scream. It would depend how big the spider was.
Mommy's Helper
When your 7-year-old sister randomly comes up to you and sits on your lap when you're just about to start playing a computer game. xP

People are suspicious when i ask questions to try to start a conversation. facepalm

It really was very small. The problem was getting it off my glasses without drawing attention to myself. ^and to make matters worse, I was near the front^

…when you accidentally put your hand on a wasp and instead of stinging you it crawls over your finger and flies away
Sarah B.
Aww! What a friendly wasp!

…a spring from a pen comes flying out of two rows in front of you at church. ^at one point it was kinda the thing to take apart pens during the sermon. gave restless hands something to do, certainly.^

…when your baby brother keeps throwing his wooden teether onto the floor, and it at one point ends up propped under one of the chairs that was set up for the special cello music that day and you have to wait until after the songs to get it, then realize you probably shouldn't because you are on the middle aisle end of your row…
(We sit in the front row; Jared eventually sneaked forward and got it x) )

…when on your kayaking trip yesterday you all stop at a swimming hole with a really steep sand dune leading to the swimming hole. You all race down the steep sand dune and jump in the swimming hole, no problem. Then you decide to do it again and trip and fall at the bottom of the sand dune and fall into the river and are 6 inches from cracking your head open. You look at your bleeding elbow and say, "Thank God I didn't fall 6 inches later!"

Your family's string teacher doesn't have any students after your family, so she goes 45 minutes overtime. :D

CUPS?? I've seen people mix up tablespoons and teaspoons, but never cups.

…you wash your hair at 10:00 AM, but it hasn't dried by 1:00 when you need to put it in a bun for dance class, so you have to put it up wet… and then when you take your hair down shortly before midnight, it's still wet.

Uh oh.
Ian R.2
Ouch. How did they turn out? XP
Matthew Minica
When you're sitting behind two of your sisters in the car and watching them act as goofy as a pair of kittens, play-fighting over a couple of highlighters, making clown faces, putting them in their mouths, and all.
Oh, and did I mention that they were my older sisters? xP
Matthew Minica
Or when you see a stop sign posted on the through road of a T intersection. Or even worse, an L intersection.
2 Corinthians 5:17
So? Sometimes you get desperate on long car trips. xP jk
Matthew Minica
Hehe. But this was about a twenty-minute car trip. ;P
2 Corinthians 5:17

You almost forget to check and make sure you're putting vinegar in the pizza crust dough (as dough enhancer) and not dish soap. Fortunately, though, it was vinegar. :)
Andrew
What gave it away? The label that clearly stated vinegar? :P jk
Rachel the Alaskan
Hahaha- yes, thankfully! (Instead of actually putting it in. O.o)
Rachel the Alaskan
You have a bottle of pills, a book, and a yo-yo in your hands, and put almost start to put the pills on the bed instead of the book and the yo-yo into the medical kit instead of the pills. :P

…you're typing out Psalms, and auto correct keeps turning "Selah" into "Seals".
