"Not Me" Monday......finally!



Wow! It's been a while y'all! I was such an avid "Not ME" participant, and I totally fell off the wagon....

I sure hope you'll forgive me!

New to this? "Not Me" Monday is a little blog carnival sponsored by my friend Jennifer (aka MckMama) over at www.mycharmingkids.net. The Basics: Post all your glowing Mommy moments under the guise of.....gasp......"Nope, NOT me!!! I couldn't possibly have done that!!!"

Wanna hear my besties from this week month.....

I did NOT let my children eat gobs of donuts and burger king and pop-tarts and fluffer-nutter sandwiches and Mr. Pibb for the better part of the past 7 days. I did NOT let them stay up till midnight and go without brushing their teeth or hair or let them watch endless episodes of Spongebob and Zach and Cody while on vacation with 2 of my best girlfriends! Nope, not me!

I did NOT feel like a clown yesterday when I finally put on a little makeup for the first time in almost 2 weeks....

I did NOT wear nothing but pajamas and bathing suits for 9 days straight. I did NOT bring home a closet full of unworn clothes. a bag full of unworn jewelry. a bag full of unworn makeup. When will I NOT learn to pack lighter????

I do NOT feel a little bit guilty that my sweet hubby was home working and painting our house while I enjoyed not wearing makeup, real clothes, cooking, cleaning an awesome vacation with friends and kiddos.

I do NOT love, love, L.O.V.E. the paint job he did ...... it is NOT absolutely, perfectly gorgeous! (BTW, "Cork" by Benjamin Moore, is NOT an awesomely warm color in case you are in the market....just NOT sayin')!!!!

I did NOT make a phone call to my babysitter for tomorrow to make sure she knew that we had had another child since she last babysat for us! I was NOT embarrassed to make that call, even though I had an inkling that she reads my blog and indeed knows that Greer exists.....

She did NOT laugh and reassure me that yes she feels like she knows sweet Greer from reading my blog. How far have we come, y'all???? Fah-reaky!

What about YOU....what have YOU NOT done this week????

Please share...and make me feel better about my fah-reakiness! (and, if I'm being totally honest....a few things happened this week that I am too NOT embarrassed to share!)....

I just painted my kitchen Cork after seeing my parent's dining and music room in it - it IS a fabu color!

Painting - that's exactly what I'll be doing the next two weekends. Wish my hubs would let me go off and him do it all by his self. lol
