Not Me Monday, 7th Edition

by

The following is the list of things I definitely did NOT do this week. “Not Me” Monday is hosted by the lovely MckMama and trust me, it’s so much fun to list what you most certainly DID NOT do!

Tim and I are NOT constantly marveling at how quiet our new garage door opener is. We certainly have NOT opened and closed it a few times to just to hear how quite it is. And of course, I was NOT excited about the fact that it came with a key pad that goes on the outside so that I don’t’ have to worry about being locked out. I was NOT at all paranoid about using it the other day when I went for a walk and still had to try it first with the hand held opener, just to make sure.

Speaking of locked out, I did NOT discover on Tuesday morning, 10 minutes before needing to drop kids at preschool, that my keys were locked in my car. I did NOT proceed to call my neighbor Mandy who totally saved my bacon by letting me borrow her car to drop the kids off. I was NOT completely relieved that Tim was still in town and able to come home later and unlock them for me.

I did NOT go to bed at 9:30 on Friday night. That would be so lame.

I am NOT craving sugar, sugar and more sugar at this point in my pregnancy. And I am most certainly NOT giving into those cravings. No way.

We did NOT eat macaroni and cheese and peanut butter sandwiches for dinner on Saturday night. I mean, what kind of Sat. night dinner would that be??? PUH-LEASE!

I did NOT begin to doze off yesterday while atop a pile of stuffed “puppies” inside my almost 5-year olds igloo tent, covered with his fleece “planets” blanket. Nope, NOT me.

I did NOT laugh a little when an acquaintance at church said to me yesterday “Girl, you are getting so skinny!” (she does not know I’m pregnant). I did NOT then proceed to wolf down the breakfast that was prepared after mass that included biscuits and gravy, hashbrowns, scrambled eggs and sausage.

I was NOT at all tempted to eat ALL of these myself. And of course I DIDN’T – or did I? Hmmmm…. ; )

  3. Thanks for your comment! I have a question for you.

    In your sidebar, where you’ve placed your button. How do you organise it so that you have got the code visible in that scroll box just below it?

    I’d like to do something similar on my blog. Just wondering!

    Thanks in advance.

  4. oh the sugar cravings! i had those when pregnant with sprout. no meal was complete without a helping of dessert! 😉

    i just love hearing about all the stuff you don’t do. ha!

  8. I love cupcakes. Husband’s grandmother said something similar to me when I was pregnant with Butterfly. Hugged me and said something like “You’re so skinny. Aren’t you glad you’re not pregnant?” So then I got to tell her I was. Fun times.

  10. Your NOT ME posts are always good for a laugh, but this one is even better than usual! Mostly because the getting locked out thing is just a tiny bit familiar to me…Oh, and? I went to bed at NINE Saturday night, and I don’t have the excuse of growing another human being!

  12. Too funny! You’re pregnant & getting told you look skinnier!? How does that work!? Those cupcakes look delicious… I would NOT be tempted to eat them all myself, either! 🙂

  17. Oh, sweet cupcakes…those look delish!

    We had a garage door problem this week, but my hubby saved the day. However, ours is still so loud. I might need to get the name and brand of yours!

    Happy belated Monday!

  18. Yummy looking cupcakes!! I remember craving sugar when I was pregnant with Tyler, but with Ethan, I craved french fries and chocolate milk! Go figure 😉

    Ah, I say just embrace the sugar. You have a great reason! 😉
