Last night I forgot to put a pull-up on my son before he got into bed. He walked into my room at 1 a.m. soaking wet, his bed soaking wet... I feel horrible! I know he won't be traumatized, but it just was such a major slip up for me! What have you forgotten lately?

What can I do next?

Michelle,
I have done the same thing, honestly I think the ones that suffer more are us, at least on my daughters case she woke up like nothing and I had to do all the cleaning.

What I have forgotten lately,
I keep looking at the mirror and see all my grays, I keep thinking I have to buy my hair color, but I keep forgetting it.
Husband is coming home tonight.
I MUST NOT FORGET TODAY.
I know he doesn't care...or at least he is smart to don't let me know, lol.

my 15yo pulls 10+ hour days on Tues/Thurs....H.S. & track practice.

When my DH picked him up last Thurs, our son actually sat in the truck - looked down at his jeans, & said "so that's where they are". My DH didn't understand the comment & asked what was up. Our son was referring to his jeans....he couldn't remember where they were! He was trying to remember where he'd stashed them for practice! OMG...total brain freeze!

For myself, it would be when I forgot to lock the french door & the dogs let themselves in.....snow-packed fur & all. They had clumps all over the living & dining rooms....& down the bedroom hallway. I know better....I know our labradoodle can open the danged door! What a mess!

Other than putting the fork in the microwave and heating up an empty plate shortly after that?

A few days ago (and embarrassingly enough, not the first or even second time I've done this) I've gone to change my sons diaper, gotten him redressed... without putting a new diaper on him ;)

I also went to the store a few days ago and wrote ASPARAGUS super big on the back of my hand... guess which one thing I forgot!?

We desperately needed milk and I forgot to buy it. I had to stop at another store on the way home to get it.

I keep meaning to make my son's 4 month appt for next month. Doc hours fill up fast. Hopefully I will remember later.
My son told me yesterday that he forgot his uniform shirt. That is when I noticed he had a different shirt on under his sweatshirt. He said he got to school, took off his jacket and saw what he had on. He ran to the office and got a spare shirt they keep. Good thing he didn't have jeans on. The shirt he put on by accident has a saying about eating homework. oops

I consider that a "Brain Fart" vs Freeze - Freeze is when you drink/eat something cold too fast and it hurts.

So, the last Brain Fart - ummmm, not sure to be honest.

The other night at a city council meeting I stood up to plead my case in regards to a matter of landscaping and the drought my state is in. I knew exactly what I needed to say, I didn't need to practice it (so I thought) nor was I even nervous when it was my turn to speak. However, for the life of me, I couldn't even think of the word "contract" and was trying to skirt around all while still sounding educated. Where that word went in front of all these people, I don't know! Thankfully the gentleman behind me stepped forward to expand and HE used the word "contract" which allowed me to complete my thought and redeem myself, hopefully;)
