So, I have pretty much stayed out of the kitchen since The Kid was born since between having a wee baby and writing a book I pretty much have 0 time. Mr Danger is working less hours at work to help me out with around the house stuff like cooking and laundry, which has been a total life saver.
But, Mr Danger was snuggling with The Kid last night on the couch and since I am slightly more caught up on my book work, they looked so happy, and I was just trying to be helpful I decided to take 5 minutes to get the kitchen cleaned up and all the dishes in the dishwasher.
Want to know what I managed to do in those 5 minutes? I broke our sink. Yes, that's right. I went to pull the pluggy thingy out from where some dishes had been soaking and all that came up in my hand was the center part of the strainer. The rest of it? Stuck in the sink. And of course then the sink didn't want to drain since there was a stopper in there with no way to pull it out (since I had removed that part somehow). So now poor Mr Danger had extra work coming behind and fixing it.
Can you believe that? I mean seriously, who breaks a sink?
Who boy, I think that is just more proof that I just simply need to stay out of the kitchen. Or at least that is how I am going to take it.

How much more of a 'sign' that you and kitchens/housework are NOT MEANT TO BE.
Some of us are lucky that way, :*)

In our little group of friends, i am notorious for breaking toilets. I don't know how i do it, but i somehow have magic powers to break all our friends potties. i have been banned from using them while visiting. so if you and i were to ever get together, you can break the sink, and i will break the toilet. fun!!!
