Not Me Monday

It's obviously Monday so it's time for what the blogging world refers to as free therapy..Not Me Monday. Head over to MckMama's and see what everyone else did not do this past week!

Now as for me:

I have not used 4 boxes of Kleenex in the past 6 days on two..that's right I said 2 children. Imagine what it would have been like with 4.

After my plans on Friday for such a relaxing and productive weekend my husband did not come home Friday early and spent the entire weekend sick.

I did not say I was going to work on cleaning out my bedroom this weekend because that would have been a lie since I didn't get to touch it!

I did not have to move Caleb's room around so that he would stop playing with the blinds when it was time to go to bed.

And I am absolutely not rushing out to the store to buy childproof door knob covers so that when it's beditme Caleb can not repeatedly come out of his room into the hallway for two hours. That's right I did not just admit that Caleb(my perfect sleeper after taking 18 mths to sleep through the night)has started not wanting to go to bed. UGH!!!

I am not so far behind once again in commenting on blogs that I need to just sit down for a few hours and browse! Seriously..I promise guys I'm coming :)

Not Me Monday

It's rolled around again so that must mean it's time for Not Me Monday. MckMama started this blog carnival and it's a great way to admit what we all DID NOT do during the past week. Head over to her blog and check out what everyone else didn't do last week too.

Now as for me:

I did not eat cookie dough last week and count it as a meal one too many times. I realize the importance of eating a balanced meal and since I ALWAYS make my kids eat them I would want to be the example and teach them the appropriate way to eat. And I absolutely did not tell Jacob no when he came up to me and asked me to eat said cookie dough while I was shoving it in my mouth..that would just be totally unfair.

I did not get incredibly upset when hubbys supposed to be one hour AA meeting turned into a three hour ordeal on Tuesday night..in fact since I didn't get up upset with him I most definitely did not get into an argument with him that upset me so much I didn't even eat dinner that night. I most definitely wouldn't have done that since I hadn't eaten at all earlier in the day either. I tell ya I know it's the right thing but it's wearing me out but I don't ever admit when things are bothering me so I did not just say that!

I did not get the most amazing camera for Valentine's day only to take shot after shot after shot and not load them onto my computer until last night.

I did not get so frustrated last night as I was trying to burn a video onto dvd that wouldn't work that I cussed my computer out. Why can't things be easy sometimes and just work the FIRST time I try?

I did not take this picture of my PRECIOUS little girl with my new camera and I am not absolutely in love with both!


My computer is once again not working right and I have not had to save and restart this post three times this morning so I most definitely did not just tell my computer that if it didn't work this time I was not going to do this again today!

I did not lay in bed last night trying to remember my Not Me's from last week so I could post them this morning. I AM NOT that old and my mind works much better than that!

Not Me Monday

I can not believe the weekend is over but when I turn my computer on and see Not Me Mondays staring me in the face I can't ignore it anymore. Head over to Mckmama's and see what everyone else did not do last week...it really is fun!

I did not go to BabiesRUs with three of four children in tow and a $10 dollar coupon to get diapers. I most definitely did not check out and get to the car before remembering that I forgot to use my coupon and I absolutely did not leave and not go back in. I know that I could have saved $10 and I would do that no matter what..having 3 children with me two of which were in car seats did not stop me from doing so.

I did not those little conversation hearts so much in the last week that they could be considered a meal. They do not taste extra good with a cup of coffee.

I was not incredibly thankful that it was 70 degrees outside most of the week last week so that my kids could play outside. I was not aggravated when they were outside 5 minutes and already wanted to come in.

I did not blog at all this weekend and was completely out of the loop except to check on this precious little girl to make sure she was okay. I did not panic when she took a turn for the worse and I did not praise God when she came through her surgery okay. I am not praying left and right that this little girl will make it out of the hospital and home with her family!

I did not get the best Valentine's day present ever from my hubby this weekend. More to come on that with pics later on :)

Not Me Monday

I can hardly believe it's Monday again but it's rolled around so that means it's time for Not Me Monday. It's fun to read about what everyone else did not do so head over to Mckmama's and join in on the party.

I did not have a horrible week last week. I did not almost bang my head against the wall several times and I was most definitely not incredibly frustrated with myself and the way I was handling my stress. I should be able to handle it all in stride and not let it show after all.

I did not pull a pair of jeans out of the dirty clothes for Lucas to wear to school twice during my said horrible week last week. I would never get so behind in laundry that he wouldn't have any clean clothes to wear. I did not check to make sure they looked clean even though they really weren't.

I did not take Caleb,jacob and Allie to the doctor last week on my own and I did not go through Caleb and Jacob having shots either. Taking all of them somewhere is enough of a job without adding shots into the mix..why in the world would I want to add something else in the pot at the same time.

I did not bake fresh oatmeal cookies last night and I most definitely did not wait until the kids were in bed to bake them so that I could have peace and quiet to enjoy them.

I did not have an absolutely wonderful weekend after my said horrible week. I am not incredibly refreshed this morning and ready to start a new week.

Not Me Monday

I think Monday rolls around quicker and quicker each week. It's time for Not Me Monday again and it really does seem like just yesterday I was doing last weeks post. Head over to MckMama's for more!

I did not about eat myself sick last night! I am old enough to know when I'm full and have had enough so I absolutely did not continue to stuff my face again and again and again.

I did not get absolutely NOTHING on my to do list done this weekend.

I have not been giving Allie tylenol at night just praying that it will begin to help her sleep alittle better! As most of you know I am WAY against medicine and Tylenol is the only medicine that I will give to them on a regular basis if needed.

I did not go to Lucas' basketball game Saturday morning with two different shoes on. I did not Not notice until I got home and was getting ready to leave again and putting on the same shoes.

I did not completely forget about Lucas' basketball practice yesterday. I do not think his coach is a complete jerk and I most definitely am not going to feel bad that we missed it!!!!! Maybe subliminally I just didn't want to go back into the same gym I was in alittle more than 24 hours earlier with two different shoes on.

Not Me Monday

Can it really be Monday again? ? Since I pulled up my blog this morning and saw Not Me Mondays staring me in the face I guess I'll accept that it really is here so head on over to Mckmama's for more.

*I did not NOT participate in Not Me Monday last week because I couldn't remember what I did not do! Seriously my mind is so much better than that and I would never forget all the funny little things everyday!!

*I did not sit down last Monday and say I was going to write everything down at night so I would remember for this week. I am SO not that corny!!

*I did not forget to write it down. Back to number 1..I swear I'm not certifiable yet.

*I did not call the doctor to find out when the kids checkups were only to find that Caleb's hadn't been made yet and Lucas and Jacob had missed theirs. I know you're starting to worry about me now but I really do think I have alittle of my mind left.

*I did not wash and dry a load of clothes on Tuesday and proceeded to freshen them up everyday until I actually got them out to fold them on Friday.

*I did not get said clothes out of the dryer only to find out that I had a load of clothes in the washer all that time also.

*I did not think my day today is only going to be filled with painstakingly long bouts of laundry since I haven't done it in four days!

Not Me Monday

It's been a while since I've participated in Not Me Monday. Heck what am I saying..it's been a while since I've done anything pertaining to blogging. I'm trying to work my way back into it..those of you that have gotten behind before know how overwhelming it can be to catch up with everyone.

Now for my Not Me's..let's see if I can get back into this.

I did not take one of Caleb's Christmas presents that he didn't open and rewrap it for his birthday. I mean heck...I did not buy him so many things that by the end he wasn't even interested in opening anymore.

I did not take cupcakes from his birthday and get rid of them by simply licking frosting off the top. I know it's the New Year and I am absolutely focusing on eating healthier and losing the rest of my baby weight this year.

I did not buy 2 bags of peanut butter m & m's this weekend at target and eat both bags within 24 hours.

I do not HEART target...and I definitely could not spend the entire day there if given the chance.

I do not still have Christmas presents piled up in the living room that haven't been put away yet. We don't buy so much for Christmas for our kids that it takes us days..heck it's been a week now to get everything put away.

Whew..that was kinda fun!!! I have to say that I have missed all of you terribly and am so excited(no I did not say dreading ;) catching up with all of you!!!! So beware I'm coming..I'll be catching up with everyone during the week...please don't be mad..I will get around to commenting..I'm just going to take it one blog at a time right now. Now go ahead and head over to MckMama's and check out some more Not Me Monday fun!

Not Me Monday

It's time for Not Me Monday again! Head over to MckMama's and check out what it's all about.

I did not put our Christmas tree up a week ago and take 7 days to finish decorating it.

I did not allow the kids to put a few decorations on above said tree and then proceed to move them around to where I wanted them. I know that Christmas is for the kids and I am not one of those "people" whose tree has to be just right.

I did not have to do lists each and everyday last week and I most definitely did not accomplish anything on them.

When Caleb woke up at 730 on Sunday morning I did not go in his room and tell him to go back to sleep since it was a rare occasion that noone was up and I had been up with Allie all night and just didn't feel like getting up yet.

I did not go to Ihop on Saturday morning and change Allie's diaper in my lap while we were waiting to be seated. Seriously who uses those nasty changing tables anymore? Can we say germs? YUCK!

I did not forget everything I was going to put in this Not Me Monday post!

Not Me Monday

Here we go again!!! It's the day we all dread but now look forward to thanks to MckMama and "Not Me Monday"

Here's what I absolutely did not do last week:

* I did not buy a roll of Pillsbury cookie dough(the biggest one available)and say it was for the kids only to find myself going to that roll of dough each and every day last week to have a bite. No way..Not me..I would never ever tell my kids they can't eat raw cookie dough and then proceed to do it myself!
*I did not let Allie's 6 month birthday go by without remembering on that day that it was actually her birthday..and I absolutely did not realize that it had happened until 4 days later! That one was absolutely not me because I pride myself in remembering things like that and chastizing my husband when he forgets!
*I did not hide in the laundry room behind the baby gate to eat leftover candy bars from Halloween(yes we still have that candy)while my 5 year old son was standing on the other side asking me if he could have candy..I most definitely did not tell him that it was too early to have candy bars and continue to stuff my face behind the wall. No way...my parents taught me to share and I absolutely would have done so if said above had been the case.
*There is no way that I posted several times last week about how far behind I was in posting on awards for my blog and getting caught up..I did not continue to post on Friday saying that I most definitely was going to do those posts this weekend and I absolutely did not go to bed last night without having typed it out! Therefore I am not sitting here on Monday morning with no post!!! I am a terrible blogger friend :(

Join in on the fun..it really is therapeutic!

Not Me Monday

Here it is again! It's time for Not Me Monday-the blogging worlds form of therapy. If you've never been a part head over to Mckmama's and join in. As for me:

*I was not one of those crazy price gouged stricken people that got up at 3:30 on Friday morning to shop the day away. Not me...I would never be that insane as to care about be amongst thousands and thousands of absolutely insane people for 8 hours.
*I have not become frustrated with Allie and her sleeping habits because I know that she is just an innocent little baby who can't help it and I am just thankful she is here with me and able to keep me up at night! I really do have to remind myself of that at 3 am!!
*I did not make a daily list of to dos almost everyday last week and never get it all done...I most definitely did not yesterday go as far yesterday as posting it on my blog to make me accountable and still not accomplish anything!
*I have not laughed at my husband who after having his "snippity snip" done is encountering the hellish growing back of hair "DOWN THERE" I most definitely have not secretly enjoyed it since he rags at me all the time about shaving everything!!! Paybacks hell buddy!

Not Me Monday

This is my first time joining "Not Me Monday" and mind you I still have an hour and fifteen minutes before Monday is actually over. Head over to MckMama's blog since she is the brainiac that created this wonderful idea!!! We have to have something to look forward to on Monday right? So here goes...let's see if I can get the hang of this :)

I have not eaten more Halloween candy than my children nor have I done so on a daily basis-Not Me-no way because I know that I am the last person in the world that needs candy!

I did not check on this baby so much during the day on Monday while she was having her heart transplant that I forgot to plan anything for dinner for my family. Not me...I would never be that involved with my computer and a precious baby girl that I have never even met.

I did not have above "said" candy for breakfast four out of five mornings last week because I know how unhealthy that would be and I would never let my children do the same...because that would make me a horrible mother,right?

I did not pull a pair of blue jeans out of the dirty clothes basket and throw them in the dryer for Lucas to wear to school-Not Me-because I am so organized and on top of laundry that I would have known before 10 pm that his pants were all dirty.

I did not finish commenting on a blog while I had a baby crying in the other room-Not Me-because I am Johnny on the Spot and I am right there the second they make a sound...take 2 seconds for my bloggy world...Not Me!
