Before leaving the house, always check your clothes. Even if you are wearing a dark colored material, your black thong will show through if the material is thin enough.
Same goes for light colored material. If it's thin enough..(darn silk skirts), it will become see through when standing in direct sunlight.
Always use a pot holder when pulling something out of the oven.
Accept the fact that if your cat is ill or even has a hairball, it will be thrown up on the carpet, even if the tile floor was one paw away.
If your pet is extra wiggly during nail clipping, try letting them down to go potty....before you get pottied on.
Moving: Just because it can all fit into the box, doesn't neccasarrily mean it should. Heavy items will cause the bottom of the box to break.
If you haven't used it it 6 months, pitch it.
Cutting your bangs because you find instructions in a magazine for a new stylish way to do it is NEVER a good idea.
Sometimes babies just cry. They can be fed, changed etc.. and still cry. All you can do is accept it and hold them until they're done.
Learn to say No.
Always turn on the fan over the stove when searing or frying anything. Anything that causes a lot of smoke will set off the smoke alarm that is located over the fridge right next to the stove if the fan is not on.
Wax paper and toaster ovens do not mix.
Stop arguing with your mother. It would take a miracle to change her mind once it's set on an issue. Arguing is futile. Just accept her opinion and agree to disagree. (This is a work in progress for me. We're two stubborn people and it's so hard to resist the urge to prove her wrong)
I'll try to think of more of life's warped little lessons by Tiff.
