Not only did I spend some time playing video games with the little one today, I actually beat him in Wii basketball!

No, I didn’t skip a day. There’s a reason I waited to post yesterday’s “happy”.

So, yesterday evening, I posted this on Facebook:

How to give yourself a heart attack in 3 easy steps:
1. Put the kettle on the stove.
2. Go downstairs.
3. Remember kettle 15 minutes later.

The good news is, I’m a dork, and after running upstairs, I discovered that I had the burner set on low, so the water was nowhere near boiling.

About 15 minutes after *that*, I went back upstairs to see this:

Yep, I’d turned on the wrong burner. I couldn’t tell the first time I went to check because it was on low, and had cycled off while I was up there.

So my “happy” for yesterday is that I managed to get through the whole day without burning the house down. (I had to wait for the day to be over to be sure I could say that.)
