Not Me Monday!

Ever since I read Mere's "Not Me Monday" postings...I have been waiting to do mine! I checked out MckMama's too and loved the idea! To think I can confess all of these things to fellow mother's and release all my guilt...bring it on! So here it goes...



Nope. Not me. I would NEVER come home from work on Friday, put on sweats, sleep in said sweats, and still be in them on Saturday at noon. Never. That would be disgusting, especially since I rolled out bread dough and had flour all over my sweatshirt the night before.


I would definitely not raise a daughter that would randomly bite another child at daycare. Children like that do not come from my home. Who bites? My daughter definitely did not get up during flannel board stories, walk around the "friendship circle" (ha--what a joke) and pick her victim to chomp on. My children never act like that. Nope.


I would never eat raw cookie dough from the fridge, in the fridge, to hide from my children. That would be a very bad example. I would never then proceed to drink right from the milk carton. Not me. I would never spend hours trying to set up a blog, read my good friends blog, or talking about how inspired I am to start a blog, instead of cleaning the house and grading papers. That would be so "unmommy like." Definitely not me.


I never pretend not to hear my children in the middle of the night just so my husband has to get up to tend to them. I never not look at my husband and sleepless child as they enter the room to use the bathroom in the middle of the night just so I don't have to get up. I never not say a word just to avoid being "found out" that I am really awake but just to lazy to get up. Nope. Not me.


I never fold all the laundry and then just leave the socks in the basket. I never pretend that I just ran out of time to fold them because folding socks definitely does not put me over the edge! I surely can handle matching socks. How hard can it be? I definitely don't feel like pulling my hair out just looking at a basket of socks.


My dear husband offered to stay home a few extra hours this morning so my overtired son could catch a few extra hours of sleep. I got my daughter loaded up in the car for preschool to realize the bikes were still loaded in my car from the bike park the prior day. I surely did not snap at him for not unloading the bikes after he was staying home for our son. Honestly, that would be so rude of me!


Okay...I feel guilt free...until tomorrow!!!
