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.

I am not sitting here halfway through Monday JUST now posting "NMM" eating an entire...yes entire bag (think Sam's Club size) of Dark Chocolate covered Pomegranates. Mmmmmm. I would never skip lunch and eat these instead. Hey! They say that they are a "natural source of flavanol antioxidants"....Must be good for me!! :)

I did not have an amazing time running around the backyard while shooting silly string at friend K and trying to use her small children as my defence during my kids' birthday party on Saturday. I would never act so childish!

Nope, I would never freak out that the appraiser person was coming at 9 AM today and rush around trying to tidy things up. Nah, I don't procrastinate when I have the knowledge of said appointment for a week in advance.

There is no way that I decided at the last minute (again this procrastination thing needs to be evaluated) to NOT clean the floors before the 50+ guests arrived at our home on Saturday. Uh huh. I wouldn't just assume they would mess it up anyways so what was the point?!

I did not throw the kids in the car and run through McDonald's for their breakfast just to keep them out of the appraiser's hair. Then I most certainly did NOT let them watch a movie for 45 minutes while waiting for our pre-schooler to get out of school this morning. Not me!

I do not still have the popcorn machine still sitting on my counter from SATURDAY. I always pick up right after a party.

I did not throw out 2 trash bags full of broken, missing half the puzzle, no cover to a book, markered up toys this morning. Nope.

There is no way that I still have several closets to go through and decide on what to keep from the kids' clothes from last year. I know exactly what is in each bag and will not have a hard time deciding on what to keep to pass down or to sell.

I am in the process of weening our 1 year old from nursing and did not cave in on Saturday so that I would not "drip" all afternoon long. I wouldn't ever confuse my poor boy just so that I could have some "relief". That would totally not be like me.

I did not contemplate an impulsive tattoo while having dinner with a friend this past week. Since I am totally that "Little Church Girl", I would never, ever think that a certain swallow bird tat would look cute on my hip.

I did not absolutely LOVE that my great friend Andrea made 48 cupcakes for the kids' party on Saturday. I would never admit that I was overwhelmed and needed someone to take over that very motherly duty.

It would totally never eat 3 of the remaining 5 cupcakes left over from the party quietly, alone in the kitchen before dinner on Sunday. Then I most certainly wouldn't act like there were ever only 2 left for the girls. Who me?

Oh I've got too much to do! Until next week...Happy Not Me Monday! Thanks MckMama it felt good to get that off my chest!

Too cute! I did NOT enjoy this very much. I did NOT long for my own bag of Dark Chocolate covered Pomegranates. And I did NOT start craving popcorn after hearing about your popcorn machine on the counter. :)

Thanks for a fun post! :)
