Yesterday we were getting ready to leave to go to dinner for fathers day. My husband and son decided to go into the garage to do something right when my parents arrived (my parents were driving us all so we normally would have gone through the front door). My husband had plugged in a DeWalt rechargeable battery earlier and when he and my son went into the garage it was melted and looked like it was about to catch fire.
He did a search and found out the battery charger had been recalled. So those of you who have a DeWalt rechargeable battery, better check and make sure your model isn't being recalled. I believe that certain Black & Decker models are recalled as well.
My older daughter stayed home and didn't go out to dinner with us because she wasn't feeling well (she had a stomach ache). I had a little panic attack thinking what could have happened if it had caught on fire and she was sleeping on the couch. She is impossible to wake when she is sleeping.

Thanks for sharing. I glad you guys caught it.
These type thing do make me a Cautious Joe. I'm the type who keeps the toaster unplugged when not in use.

I too keep the toaster unplugged but not because I'm a "Cautious Jane" but because I don't like crap on my counter top. I put it away after I use it. :p

I use to "Seal-A-Meal" everything until my sealer malfunctioned. I use to make my kids single serving Cheetos and other snacks using my vacuum sealer instead of buying the ones they sold at the grocery store. I am very handy to have around. :-*

I have to admit that I am the King of the Zip-Loc Bag. Everything I own is in a Zip-Loc bag somewhere. I cannot stand loose crap. Our "junk drawer" is a series of bags with all like items segregated by bag.
When I die I will be cremated and each part will be put into a separate bag and labeled. "Skull", "Left Arm", "Pelvis".....and what's this rolled up sandwich bag? Oh, "Penis".

I hate to tell you this but when you are cremated you don't cremate in "sections". :p

You do if you are cut up and cremated in alphabetical order. "Arm, left", "Arm, right".......

These kind of stories always send chills up my spine...

GROSS.
My husband wants to be cremated, I don't want him to be. I want someplace to go "see" him and cry. Generally a place I can go and feel sorry for myself. I will do it though if he still wants it after years of me saying "Nooooooo, I don't want to burn you to a crisp". He doesn't want to take up "space" after he is gone.

Only when an inconsiderate person leaves the seat up..... :-)

You can make a shrine in your front hall closet and keep his ashes in there. :-)

We watched "P.S. I love you" the other day. The chicks husband dies from a brain tumor. He is cremated and she designed the "box" he was "stored" in. She carried him around for quite awhile. It was very "bikerish". My husband said I should do design a "vessel" for him. I said all I can do is quilt, I don't think a quilt would keep him all in the same place. :p

Isn't God's protection great!

I'm sure you know, actual cremains are nothing but ground up bones. The cremation process pretty much vaporizes all soft tissue. All crematories have a grinder by the oven in order to reduce the deceased into a nice manageable boxful of gravel.
We had my wife's brother in our closet for about a year before we decided what to do with him. My wife (and his two grown children) spread his fragments over their mother's grave at Laurelland. Of course, since my mother and her mother are buried side by side, I had to ask, "You didn't get any on my mother did you?"

My mom wanted to be cremated...I used to ask her how God would put her back together for the Second Coming. :naughty:
I have my dog's remains, but I think human remains would severely creep me out.
