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. Let's see if I have any not me! in me today.

I didn't find myself complaining about everything, wishing for things to be different, and grumbling about it all to my wonderful husband who just returned home to a stack of bills, and 3 mandatory Furlough days a month. Not me!

I didn't tell my daughter to clean up her toys only to hear "No Gma oo!" in return and be so thankful for words I almost did it for her, but that totally would have fed her 2 year old I'm in charge of the world mentality, so after saying good job using your words, I wouldn't have helped her do a task she is totally capable of doing on her own. Not me!

I wouldn't have gotten so caught up in taking this photo:that I didn't see the mud waiting for her little butt until it made her little tush look like this:
Not Me!

Even though I was soo thankful to have photos of myself and Danya together in the water at the ocean, upon seeing them I never would have vowed to use my new dress form not to make a dress but a mommy swimsuit for myself that was condusive to child care at the beach without this kind of overexposure. Yikes! and Not Me!
And never in a million years would I have felt like Bruno the trashman, because everyone talks to the adorable but strong willed baby in my arms and not to me when we go out. Not Me!
(it took some googling to even discover if he had a name. Yep that's me lately. Just carrying the cuteness around. It's hard to be too upset by that though because she is awful darn cute.)

Not Me!



Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. I've been reading some of the other ladies posts for a few weeks now and thought I would give it a try. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

Because I said I would only use cloth this week I never put Danya in a pull-up just because she wanted Cinderella underwear. Not me! Oh and when I did stick to my decision but ran out of cloth (that's my well hydrated and suddenly just sitting on the potty and not using it child every pair except the ones she was wearing were in the wash), I never would have used a swim diaper because we were out of disposable diapers too. Not me! Then when at the store and her swim diaper leaked all over me I didn't put a second of the precious and expensive swim diapers on her. Not me!

I had a very crabby day this week yet I wouldn't have finished off a whole 2 liter of Dr. Pepper in less than 6 hours. Not me! and I absolutely would never have eaten nearly a whole pizza that day and 1/2 a bag of chocolate chips and then complained about the pounds I put on. Not me!

Well that's it for my first Not Me! Monday.
