The Sky is Falling...no that wasn't the sky!!!!

It is funny how throughout your life you drop things.... You drop the phone, food, pencils, pens, the remote, groceries, eggs, earrings, and yes, once in a while you drop the ball. Today is another story. I debated telling anyone but...this is an honest diary of the life and times of me. When I decided to start dropping weight by exercising and eating right and documenting it to be accountable to myself, I never thought that dropping weight could have compromising moments.

I scheduled a painter to come over after my work day to help me pick out paint colors for my living room and hallways. Sounds simple right? So...I arrived home about ten minutes before he arrived and had barely caught my breath when the doorbell rang. I answered the door to this polite, nice, kind, very professional man who had come to my rescue when my pipes fell off the house during winter. So, we are placing the color chips up on the walls next to the wood and other painted walls to see which color looked better. Then it happened!

I was turning to walk towards the wall with the curtains, keeping in mind my weight loss and what happens to your clothing when you lose weight, and MY PANTS FELL DOWN....yes...I dropped my drawers down to my ankles. I screamed "ahhhhh my pants fell down" and grabbed them as fast as I could....which probably drew much more attention to the incident then needed. I collapsed with laughter AFTER I pulled up my pants.
How does one start the conversation where it left off after that? I managed to pull myself together and finished the decision making. I hope I like the color...I don't remember too much.

So...most people once in a while drop the ball........I DROP MY PANTS!
