Top 10 oh no moments for the week (in no particular order)

1. the moment when my childhood derived mantra of 'righty tighty lefty loosey' failed me in the shower. starting my morning off just right; damn that was cold.
2. losing 3 of doris's fishing hooks because my fingers were frozen and I couldn't reel in fast enough so I snagged my line.
2. a. forgetting to take gloves so my fingers froze.
2. b. fishing with homemade fishing poles out of sticks when its friggen freezing outside!
3. getting excited when I caught a huge log... (sam and jordan both caught fish :( )
3. a. realizing just how screwed I would be if I my meals relied upon my catching them first.
4. learning how to make bannock. and realizing just how absolutely delicious (and super easy) it is to make fried bannock.. uh oh.
5. jordan 'seeking and destroying' his own partner!!! in doshka. thanks bud. thanks a lot
6. going canoeing on the lake with the boys (which was lovely - I was an excellent supervisor while Will and Jordan slaved away) only to return to no-one home and Will having left the keys in his other pair of shorts. doris returns but guess what, she lent her keys to her son who had yet to return them (and was naturally MIA!).
6. a. getting hair stuck on window latch as I climb through window to break into the house we locked ourselves out of.
7. volunteering to help with a school gym sleepover for forty 8-13 yr olds
7. a. not napping after said sleepover and before 3 hrs of hair braiding.
7. b. admitting to girls that I could braid.
8. hair braiding for 3 hrs! poor poor Sam; our resident expert who valiantly continued braiding when the rest of us shamelessly hid.
9. learning to play gin only to find out I suck at gin. I quickly suggested alternative new games that I subsequently lost once Sylvia caught on to the rules.
10. not bringing winter clothes to dillon (geez was it cold today!)
