Not Me Monday



I was all prepared to not do a Not Me Monday post.  I feel like it's getting a little tired.  So I spent the morning cleaning my kitchen floor and the inside of my bathroom cupboards.  Not to mention the usual, making meals, picking up the same sippy cup a million times (well, at least 6 times), and refereeing the offspring.

Then I sat on my couch looked around my living room and said "This is not my house. Right?  Someone tell me when the place will resemble a liveable space again." So here I am.  Posting Not Me Monday. Go to MckMama's blog to see some more.

In order to do this post, I didn't send my children out back to play with some very flimsy rules about not shoving, and not throwing rocks.

I'm not still in my pajamas, hair a mess, and without a trace of deodorant. Pft...deodorant...who needs it?

I am not sitting here wondering what the heck we are going to have for dinner tonight, because I am always prepared ahead of time with something taken out of the freezer.  Nope, I'm not sitting here complacent with nary a plan in sight.

Finally, I received the sunshine award from three people (I will post it later), and I did NOT misplace one of the names of the people who forwarded it to me.  So when I do the post, and your name is not mentioned, please let me know, and I do NOT give you permission to beat me about the head with a big stick.

What have you not been doing lately?

You crack me up... each Tuesday morning, I vow not to do a Not Me Monday the next week... then Sunday night rolls around, and I end up having enough material to write one and do it anyway! It's a vicious cycle. I think I saw MckMama say she's thinking about retiring the feature anyway...

deodorant, so overrated.

I did not just threaten my son that it was nap time if he didn't go play by himself in his room, you know, so I could comment on your blog.

Pizza is always a good solution for dinner. ;)

Did you make your header and buttons? I'm trying to find someone to make a doll for mine. I can't find the image that I want already made.

Sorry to hear that you are so not enjoying the chance to relax with hair in disarray and no deoderant. That would be me loving the opportunity! :)

I'm sure your kids love Not Me Mondays!

I have not been eating copious quantities of really unhealthy food since we've been snowed in the last few days (we got 25 inches this weekend!).

I have showered every single day, always making myself up beautifully.

I have not put on Kung Fu Panda (again) so I could have some mommy time.

PS - Just wanted to check in and make sure you were still good for your Blogtrotting post on Wednesday?

Kate said...

I get so excited when you have a new blog post. I like you more and more every day.

Amanda said...

Okay, so wait. We aren't supposed to send our kids outside, or bribe them, or put them in front of a movie so we can blog?

Guess I'll be preparing my acceptance speech for Mother of the Year soon.

I did not save your blog to my faves under the "Open Mouth, insert foot" post and haven't been so lazy that I just click on the home button when I visit you. I'm never lazy.
