Not Me Monday!!!

It's "Not Me! Monday" time! I recently stumbled upon another blog that had participated and thought it seemed like a lot of fun (plus there is sarcasm and you all KNOW how much I love sarcasm!) I get to "admit" some of my failures for the week without actually "admitting" them. Head over to http://www.mycharmingkids.net/ for more Not Me's ... only after reading mine!

• I did not have a productive week at work this week. I was not feeling pretty good about that until 3 students I had recruited backed out. That would not make me totally bummed out since it was out of my control.



• I did not ask my husband to take care of getting the boys out the door on Friday morning just so I could sleep in. I do not love him so much more for doing so with out complaining. I did not enjoy sleeping in until 9:30 before heading out to lunch with two great girlfriends. I did not have an enjoyable time with said girlfriends.



• I also did not forgot to ask one of the girlfriend's how her birthday went! I would not have been that stuck on a couple of my issues to have forgotten to ask what her kids and hubby purchased for her. That would just be selfish friend right there. I would not be asking for her forgiveness in front of blogger world (I do love you Steph! And I am sorry!!!)



• We did not take the boys to the circus on Saturday night. They did not enjoy themselves and most certainly did not fall asleep on the way home totally tuckered out. I would not have taken a picture of that to share with each of you (along with some others).



• I did not borrow a treadmill from my mother-in-law because I do not know myself well enough to not know that I probably will not follow through with this. I would not have this idea in my head that I could just jump right on and make it a mile with no issues. I am surely NOT in that bad of shape. I promise you I was not right about that fact!



• Aiden did not come in while I was on said treadmill and say, "Mom ... you are getting skinnier already!" I did not take that to heart and consider stopping the workout after only 5 minutes. That would be lazy!



• It did not hit me while taking a shower after said workout that in September Aiden ran his first one mile fun run in 9 minutes and 14 seconds. I did not want to cry after realizing it took me 15 minutes to walk 1/2 of a mile!



• I am not determined to lose this weight! I am not determined to get into a workout pattern and stick to it. I do not think I can do this and I do not know that I cannot do this alone!



• I did not crack up laughing after working out and giving Logan a hug while still in my tank top after he asked me (while pointing to my mile of cleavage) "Mom, what's that crack for?" I did not laugh even harder when he asked why he didn't have one.

Have a great week everyone!

Not Me Monday!!!

So, I am trying this thing (for my second time) called "Not Me! Monday" I recently stumbled upon another blog that had participated and thought it seemed like a lot of fun (plus there is sarcasm and you all KNOW how much I love sarcasm!) I get to "admit" some of my failures for the week without actually "admitting" them. Head over to http://www.mycharmingkids.net/ for more Not Me's ... only after reading mine!

• I was not totally excited to have Friday off due to the weather. I was not sleepy due to the lack of sleep I received from the power outage thus leading us to get up at 1 am to head over to my in-laws house for heat.
• I did not practially do nothing for the last three days and I am not thankful for that fact!
• I did not just go through 2 huge boxes of Christmas gifts the kids had received weeks ago. I would not have left them in the garage because I wasn't ready to deal with finding a place to put them all. I do not want to admit that it wasn't as bad as I had feared.
• I did not totally enjoy my family this weekend. We did not spend most of the time at home watching movies and snuggling.
• I did not post some ha-lar-ious pics from my high school years on Facebook. I did not tag many of my friends so that all would be a bit embarassed. I did not post a few of my favs at the end of this post.
• I did not cry this week after having to weigh myself in front of people. I have not vowed to lose at least 30 pounds by my 30th birthday.
• I do not want you to have a wonderful week!

• I did not have such a headache on Monday night that I lied to my children telling them it was 8:30 and bedtime when it was actually only 7:45. Only a mean, lying mother would do such a thing.


• I did not fall off the diet track at all this week. Only someone with very little self control would do such a thing ... but have you tasted those cream horns from W*l-Mart ... seriously people! So good!


• I am not missing my little nephew like crazy this week. I did not look at some pictures from his birth and cry.


• I did not want to change my name so that Mom or Mommy wasn't an option. I did not get totally frustrated on Tuesday because I couldn't use the restroom without two little boys screaming for me. I mean that would just be selfish for me to want to do my business in private. What would I be thinking?


• I did not make my kids play longer than they really wanted out in the snow just so I could get that perfect scrapbooking shot. Nope ... not me! I did not post a couple of the pictures at the end of this post.


• I am not dreading work this week.


• I did not blog about picking the nose belong to someone else or wiping the bottom of someone else. That would be soooo gross! (see blog entry below).


• I did not go shopping all day on Saturday with friends. I would not have done that and left my husband home to do errands on one of his only Saturday's off. What kind of selfish wife would do that????


• I did not feel bad that Aiden had to miss a day of school on Friday. I was not sad because his perfect attendance was ruined nor did I feel bad that he was missing their make up Christmas party. He was not upset either.


• I am not tired of snow storms.


• I did not have a wonderful weekend with the family (hey ... the shopping was with some family too!) and I am not sad that it is over.
  

Have a great week! ~Carrie
