I can remember once Dad shuffling over to me and saying, "I'm afraid I sprinkled on your rug." I just grinned and said, "Well, that's why God invented Febreze!" Then afterward, I went outdoors and wailed to my husband, "Dad peed on my new carpet!" What can you do? I'd trade all my carpets to have them back for five minutes.
How long have your parents lived with you?

Me, too, B2Y. I'd take all the frustrations and aggravations just to be able to spend one more day with my Dad. I miss him so much. Like you, I vented to my family but never to him.
We all do things that we don't intend to do.....we all make mistakes and mess up from time to time.
Erin, I'm sure if you asked your Dad if you ever did anything that aggravated or frustrated him he'd be able to think of a few incidents!
