I almost killed myself with my kerosene heater.
I don’t know why I wasn’t more careful with my kerosene heater.
It was not a good idea for me to get one in the first place since I tend to be quite forgetful. I should have gotten a safer heater for my shed, but I wasn’t thinking at the time that I bought it. I just needed a heater in my shed. I do a lot of work out there. I have my own small business where I make pottery, and I do it all in my shed since it is sort of messy. It doesn’t get super cold where I live, but it gets chilly enough for it to be hard for me to work because I get too stiff and cold. I decided that I needed a heater for my shed one day, and I went to the store immediately and bought one. I did not think too much about it. I bought a kerosene heater when I certainly should not have. It was the first heater that I found, so I just bought it. Well, I forgot to turn the heater off one day while I was out of the shed, and I came back into a shed full of soot. It was terrible. I tried to turn it off and start cleaning up, but after I was in there for a few minutes I started to get really light headed and I passed out. Thankfully, my neighbor found me or I may have died. I learned from my mistake, and I will no longer be using a kerosene heater.
