Not Me Monday


Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

First off, to clear things up, it is not 12:36 AM! If there is any indication that it is, then this posting must be linking incorrectly to the clock. First of all, I never stay up too late. Second of all, I did not get sidetracked on Facebook after having completed my newsletter pages over an hour ago. And third of all, it just couldn't be so...man, did I mention how NOT tired I am right now?

I did not update the picture on my blog header yesterday, and while I was not guessing which one it was from the small icons, then leave the picture up there even though it's kind of a goofy picture of our youngest. Frankly, she is a little goofy, so I thought maybe, just maybe, oh, I mean...I did not think that it fit her perfectly. Did I mention how NOT tired I am?

As Izzy currently usually calls any doll or stuffed animal her baby, I will not be using that to my advantage come Christmas. I will not remind her that she got a baby today (a.k.a. stuffed reindeer holding a blanket someone from church gave her) in a couple days when she doesn't get the baby she asked Santa for, specifically the baby that cries and crawls, like the Santa @ story-time suggested to her last week and reassured her that they had plenty of at the North Pole. And NO, I'm NOT bitter towards that Santa and I have NOT thought about calling my local public library 3 times in the last week to complain that Santa suggested a ridiculous toy to my child.

And no, I'm not tired, thanks for asking.

Have a GREAT Monday!

Not Me Monday


Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.
Here we go again...this is such good therapy!

At 6:54 Sunday evening I did not think to myself, "24 hours from now we'll be at Bunco, kid-free!" That would never has crossed my mind, cause our bedtime routine always goes off perfectly, uneventfully and with calm voices. And I would never wish I could skip it!

I didn't make a mistake and pick up a shift Saturday night which made it impossible for me to go with to the boys' bowling tournament 1 hour and 45 minutes away. Even though I knew where they were going, I wouldn't totally think the tournament was only 1 hour away, in the complete opposite direction. This did not leave Trav to have to venture out on his own for the day, GPS in hand and hope he found it since the internet said the bowling alley didn't exist. Nope, not me, cause I have all our plans worked out so that we would never have conflicts.

I have not put off washing Izzy's blanket for a couple weeks now. I would never let her use her white blanket that she so beautifully decorated with markers one day, as she never would think to color on anything that she hasn't asked to color on first and especially when she was supposed to be napping. She didn't make adorable tracings of her hands on the blanket, which of course didn't play a role in my lack of desire to wash it. I wasn't somewhat a tiny bit disappointed when it all came out after one wash so that there wouldn't be evidence of it for the long term. Nope, not me, cause I know what is okay and what isn't okay, and it isn't okay for her to do stuff like that. Come on, she's 3!
