It is time for a free therapy session… Where we tell all the things that absolutely DIDN’T Happen to us this week! (wink, wink).
If you haven’t been checking in on McKMamma this past week… then I am not sure where you have been! You missed witnessing God’s Miraculous Healing of little Stellan for the SECOND time in his wee little life! McKMamma is the lovely host of this blog carnival, and this is where you go to link up, and to read 100’s more Not Me Monday posts.
I have not been more lazy in the past week than I have been in years, while at home anyway. Nope.
We are not all dragging, dragging, dragging today… because we got on a go to bed after midnight, and wake up about 9 am schedule… I would never allow that to happen or be a part of that. I know better.
I’d never be thinking of climbing back into bed, skipping Jadon’s preschool, skipping grocery shopping..No.
I haven’t been avoiding meal making, and getting by on left-overs, & cold meat and cheese… Nope. Not me.
I didn’t serve my family hash brown potatoes from a bag that said, “best if used by 4/7/2007”… No that would be disgusting.
Didn’t let my house, and my children run amuck while I played with my pictures from the year, caught up on my blog, and wrote. Not Me.
I was not awarded A Fabulous Blog Award by Gayle @ The White House. The award doesn’t require that I list 5 addictions… and I didn’t know immediately that my list would include being with my kids, and taking pictures of them… blogging…. writing… talking… and coffee. Nope. I am not addicted to anything.
Because, I sure didn’t take 455 pictures in October, or 437 in November… and I didn’t take 550 pictures at Christmas. (James took some)… so see… I really didn’t!
I didn’t use my Christmas money to buy myself a Cannon Rebel… because a new-better camera would only my the picture addiction, I don’t have, worse! No Way, Not Me!
I didn’t pull all of Kiahna’s yarn braids out this week… some of the braids had not been in for at least three months… And she didn’t look completely adorable in her real hair…
The undoing, washing, parting, and temporary braiding didn’t take us 3 hours… she was not hiding from me under the table when I wanted to take this picture of her… Nope. Not Kiahna.
We are not working on new yarn braids already… because her hair is not already getting fuzzy… after only a couple days. Nope.
She didn’t throw up three times one night last week. No.
I was not sure that James must have had a high temperature or acquired Mad Cow Disease or done something awful… because he was being so helpful, cleaning, and working around the house. Nope. Not James. I didn’t breathe a sigh of relief that perhaps he didn’t commit a felony, wasn’t trying to ease some bad news on me, and wasn’t dying, when I finally realized his ulterior motive for all the work… Nope.
Leah and Zach didn’t have a blast snow skiing last Sunday-Tuesday. Nope.
Leah didn’t put on a pair of her friend’s boots under her formal dress at the Junior High dance…
Her friend was not completely grossed out when the boots were all sweaty after the dance… Nope. Not Leah.
We did not get TP-ed AGAIN… in January.. in rain… Nope. Not us.
I did not tell Zach that it was all his fault… if he was not so darn cute… because it sure hasn’t been HIS friends every time… and they haven’t been girls every time either… Nope.
Anyway… James, Zach and two of James friends did not chase down the TPers… nope. They didn’t do anything stupid or dangerous… teenagers don’t do those things. Not My Kid.
My blog is not in process of getting a complete make-over! And I am not excited about that! Nope. Not. Me.

You are so funny!! What a crazy life you lead :)
Good luck getting back to that schedule!
the boots...chasing tp'ers and the hair is cracking me up! ur james and zach r my kind of kids! soooo funny!
Awesome list of not me's and I'm not the least bit concerned about your getting sick from those old frozen hash browns.
I wouldn't serve those hashbrowns to my family. Nope not me... lol... yes I would. As long as as they have been in the freezer, right?
I love Kiahna's hair short. She looks younger with it.
Classy with the boots...I would not be concern about the old hash browns either nor am I having issues with getting moving today since we started at 6AM this morning!

Yep, gotta agree, the hashbrowns were the best part of the story. Because ... I know that so many of us would NOT (no, never) feed expired food to our families. Not me! :)
My big boys did NOT pull the best prank on our youth pastor on Christmas Eve. He said he wouldn't retaliate because it was absolutely the best prank ever.
I say ... send the kids to preschool and then go back and crawl into bed. :)

Oh my, you are too funny. I loved your line about the hashbrowns. To add to yours,
No, I didn't use ritz crackers that literally were at least 20 months old (yep, that's over 1 1/2 years) on the top of baked mac and cheese. And I'd add that it still tasted really could but since I did not do that I can't say it tasted goo.
Kiahna IS cute with her hair.
Zach needs to get some new friends, preferably non-TPing friends.
Are you being serious about the number of pictures taken PER month???? 550 Cmas ones?
If you are being serious on the numbers, you need an award or something. Glad you have a new camera to NOT aid in your addiction that you do NOT have.
Hope you're extra sleep today helped you feel better.
In Him,
Paula
I can't believe that you got tped again. That is what happens when you have teens I guess. BTW...Love the blog look.
This was just too neat to read! I enjoyed it!
