Now what is she showing us? Some kink of weird tree growth? Back of some strange animal? Do I really want to know!? Well, none of the above. It's my floor. Ken warned me the other day, don't leave the iron plugged in, Bobby will knock it down, and somethings going to get burnt. Well, I heeded that one well... I heard the crash, Bobby came running, but did I get out of bed to investigate what trouble he got into? Noooooo. I fell back to sleep! And when I finally did get up, oh I'd say about an hour later, give or take, I found my iron, on the floor, (always hated that junk Ken haphazardly put down,) and when I lifted it, found the automatic shut off no longer works. When it fell, it turned on. Way on. So. Do I get a new floor, and forget my trip west? NO way! I'll throw a rug over it and call it good! I can live with that,

Yikes! Well, it could have been worse - so I guess this is a good lesson learned:-D
Yep, could have awakened to a house on fire...eek! Glad it was just a spot on the floor. A nice rug can cover a multitude of sins! :c)
Eeeeew!!! Cover it up and nobody will see it. The first picture kind of looks like a plum rasberry pizza or something! Diane
Youser! that hurt, sounds like what I did to linoleum in my old house. But I had to replace mine cause metal schrapnel went every where.
Oh yuck! I never unplug my iron! Hope that dear hubby never realizes that or it will give him something (else) to nag about in my disorganization!

But did you get a new iron with automatic shut-off? ;)
xo Catherine
too, too funny! I had the same thing happen here except it was with my 2 year old!!! I turned my back for on second and he put it on his plastic play table...I had to pull with all my might to get it "off" thank god it was teflon coated or I think it would have been stuck for good!
Yikes! Sounds like a scare for sure!
Have a great weekend!
Hugs,
