Not Me! Monday

Today I'm joining MckMama and lots of other bloggers in Not Me! Monday, where we are confessing many things that we absolutely did not do this week!  (Of course we didn't!)  You can click on over to her blog to see what other bloggers have not been doing!

Here are a few things I have not been doing:

I did not give into the craving for a LARGE Coke from one restaurant or anothereveryday in the month of January.  No way!  Not me! I have much more self-restraint than that.

I did not eat another entire package of candy this past week.  This week's culprit:  York mini peppermint patties.  (PAUL:  stop buying candy and leaving it at the house!)  And I did not quietly celebrate as I popped the last one in my mouth last night.  Nope.  Not me!

I did not send Zachary to school a day earlier than perhaps I should have last week while he was sick with asthma simply because I had to be up at the school to feed 70 people lunch!  While I was in charge of the teacher luncheon, I would not have sent my sick boy to school so that I could do my job. . . . (In my defense, I was at his school all day and could give treatments or take him to the doctor or whatever needed to be done.  AND he did just fine with the nurse's care and his teacher's close eye.)

I did not get drenched in the freezing, cold rain while carrying 60 large bread bowls out to my car on Thursday!  I did not fight the urge to have a really badattitude about wet jeans -- one of my all-time least favorite things on the planet!  (The truth is, Zippy and laughed at how amazingly wet I got during this excursion.  And I must shout out a big ol thanks to the lady who walked beside me with her umbrella for a few paces!  People are so amazing!!)

Speaking of amazing people, my sweet husband did not move my electric blanket to the living room for me so I could watch Zachary closely all night and enjoy my awesome blanket!  He did not point out to me with a little bit of sarcasm after reading my blog about missing my blanket, "Your blanket is portable, ya know."

I have not been really, really lazy in posting on my blog regularly, letting days go by with no posts.  Not me! You, my readers, are my #1 priority always even when my world is crashing down around me and I'm getting no sleep.  (But the awesome thing is, you would expect nothing less of me than to skip a day or two of posting so that I can care for my family!!  Thanks!)

I am not looking so forward to this week ahead of having NO SICK KIDS at home with me all week!  Chloe Baby, you do not get a week of being sick like your wimpy brothers did!  It's just Mama at home this week!!!
