Today, my daughter's school called to inform me that I needed to bring her some sneakers. Not feeling like driving the 15 minutes to her school, I told them I was away from town. Then I realized I was on my house phone. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, since I'm still recovering from my surgery and can't drive, my daughter drove me to the doctor. When I was done and walked outside, she was nowhere to be seen. Then I got a text, saying, "Sorry, I forgot I have to be somewhere." The closest bus stop to our house is miles away. FML
Today, my parents left for work before I had to leave for school and I decided to skip. I stayed by the phone, expecting the school to call so I could pose as my parent and excuse my absence. The phone rings and I pick up. It's my Mom, calling to leave my dad a message on the machine. FML
Today, I got a call from my kid’s school, saying my daughter had a minor accident on the playground. When they asked her who to call, she'd said, "My mom’s probably in a meeting. Call the pizza place, they always pick up." FML
Today, I had to go to my daughter's school because she hasn't been going to class. Her teacher seemed surprised to see me with my husband when we arrived. Apparently I "died" recently and my daughter has had extra responsibility around the house, hence why she doesn't come to class. FML
Today, I went to work 300 miles away from where I live. I couldn't find my customer's address, so I decided to call him. I'd picked up my wireless house phone instead of my mobile. FML
Today, I made the long drive to work, got out of the car, and realised that I'd forgotten to put shoes on before I left the house. FML
Today, I noticed that my mom had left the house without her cell phone. I called her phone to let her know she forgot it. FML
Today, my mom was on the phone while we went grocery shopping. Apparently, her phone call was more important because she just left me stranded in the store. FML
Today, my daughter asked me if I could have the kids overnight, even though I’d babysat all day, all because she just got home and was too tired to make the drive to pick them up. She only lives two minutes away. I can see her house from my bathroom window. FML
Today, due to bad weather, my dad let me take his car to drive to my apartment 3 hours away. I only realized when I got there that my keys were still sitting on my parents' kitchen counter. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

"I lied, just because I am lazy, but I couldn't even do it right." Oh yeah, obviously your life is terrible.

#136, you're an idiot. This would have the same reaction from me regardless of the parent's gender - that the parent in question should not be one.

yeah, because his ladie's precious little snowflake is obviously going to be scarred for life because she had to wear THE SAME shoes she already had on for an activity. It's not like the child was sick or bleeding. No wonder there are so many self-entitled, bratty hosebeasts running around. People who are calling this woman names are the same people who call the school every day demanding action when little Madysen says that someone made fun of her designer jeans.

Um, hi. Have you ever been to school? They wouldn't LET you wear the same shoes. This is assuming they are even for gym, which considering the school CALLED HOME, is probably not the cas.

They let everyone else wear the same shoes - or do the activities in their bare feet. No need to be rude, just because people have obviously been brought up and gone to different schools from you. Really though, it's a pair of shoes. She's not going to die if she doesn't get them. You're being too judgemental, and not taking other POVs into perspective. In future, the daughter will remember her own shoes, because one day, as horrible as it must sound, mummy isn't going to be there. I'm just coming up for my 15th Birthday in May, and I already know that we need to learn to be independant - other people seem to think that the world revolves round them, and really. For most people who claim to be adults, a 14 year old (& probably younger people too) knows more about independance than you? I'd find that utterly mortifying. So, wise up before you start verbally attacking the OP. xx
