Accidents

Went with mom to get some paint because husband is patching a spot in her bathroom wall where a towel rod was. She gets handed the paint can at the counter, turns around, and it slips from her grasp. She was so embarrassed. She built a wall around the mess with baskets and stood there guarding it. The guy behind the counter furiously set to work cleaning it up. Then we had to wait forever for the angry paint counter employees to replace the can. At least some customers tried to joke with her about it to make it better. But really sometimes all you can do is laugh. (Which I hope mom does when she reads this, because in the picture she's yelling at me not to take her picture.)
