Not Me Monday


Well....haven't seen this little orange box in awhile. MckMama is back in the saddle again. (not that she fell off a horse or anything) Click on her name to check out hundreds of others who are admitting to their faults, but pretending they really don't have any.

As for me:

I'm not posting a NMM just because I want to win a super cute necklace that MckMama is giving away.

I'm not thinking about cutting a lot of my hair off, because I'm thinking my next birthday (coming soon to a blogger near you) seems like to old of an age to have longish hair.

I'm not thrilled that the laundry is finished for the week, the floor is scrubbed for the week, the house is somewhat picked up (until it's a mess soon enough) and I can spend the rest of the week enjoying it outside with my kids, because it's not going to be a gorgeous sunny week. update: just checked the forecast. They changed it on me. Rain, Wed, Thurs, Friday. So much for my gorgeous sunny week. Oh great, update on the update: Rain tomorrow too, so my week outside in the sun is shot.

Off I go to grab the sun. With sunscreen of course.

Not Me Monday

MckMama is the head Not Me-er around here and she has hundreds of us linked up to her site spewing out our stuff that did not happen to us this past week. Please take some time to pray for her family. They have been battling sickness at their house, and with babies, I'm sure it's not fun.

*************************************************************************************

Now if this would have happened to me, which it did not because it's NMM, I might have been horrified!

I was driving Perry's car and he asked me to stop and get the car washed. So I pull in to the car wash, get out and let them take over.

The car goes through, gets all shiny clean, and a group of people at the end, get together and dry it outside, and clean up the inside.

When finished, they raise their hand to signal that I can go get the car and drive away all happy.

I get in the car, and thank God this is NMM, because if it were not, I would have been, as I said earlier, horrified to see a big plastic pickle jar and Perry's portable urinal sitting on the front seat next to me.

Perry travels far and wide in his car for his job and can't always stop to go to the bathroom, so he found a huge plastic pickle jar to go in. And then for his birthday, my sister gave him a portable urinal as a joke, but he really liked it and will use it to replace the pickle jar.

Well, the pickle jar was not removed yet. It was shoved under the seat along with the urinal, and apparently the car wash people do a pretty good job in cleaning, because they found this stuff, but didn't put it back under the seat.

And horror of horrors, the pickle jar looked like it had a few drops of pickle juice in it. Let's just hope that these car wash people thought that it really was pickle juice.

Have a nice week. I'm off to read what did not happen to you.

Not Me Monday


Oh this has been a fine week. Thank goodness it's Not Me Monday and none of this stuff happened. HA! That's what this NMM is all about. We get to write things that we really do not want to confess to. shhh, but it really did happen. MckMama started this, so check out her Mr. Linky to see hundreds of others NMM.

The, My Child Was Not Sick post.

Phoebe was not sick all week, with a fever and she did not stay home from school, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.



Which means that she didn't have a stack of work to catch up on. Good grief, she is in 1st grade, what's with all the work?

After 3 days of being sick, and not saying 3 words all week, Phoebe did not catch up on her "backtalk" to me. Boy, sorry you were sick kiddo, but I sure didn't miss your mouthy talk much.

Against my better judgment, dad didn't take the girls shopping all over the place on Saturday. (while I lay around in bed til noon)

I'm sure germs didn't cover my children from shopping, and fester in to their already ill bodies.

And because Phoebe was not ill, I didn't have to take her to the ER Sunday night, because of ear pain.

She does not have double ear infection.

I will not have to call her in absent from school, yet another day. AHHHHHHHH

Poor baby.





Her little hospital gown and bracelet are not pretty cute on her. And that blanket was not the warmest, freshly heated blanket around.

What a week. And I am so glad another week of a sick kid is starting again. NOT!

Prayers appreciated. Thanks.

Not Me Monday


MckMama has this blog carnival going on. We get to lie about what happened to us last week. All in fun of course. Check her out.

As for me....

I did not catch my child's throw-up in my hand, because I couldn't get her to a bathroom fast enough. (if you need to know the whole story, I posted about it on Friday)

I am not super excited about winning two, yes TWO giveaways on 2 different blogs.

My husband and I are not having any fun at all reading the devotional for couples that I won, from one of the giveaways.

And I'm not drooling while I wait for the Sour Patch Kids candy to arrive from the other giveaway.

I am not thrilled that my 4 year old just told me she had to wrap a gift up for "St. Mom's Day"
gee I didn't know there was a St. Mom's Day, but I'm glad I am one and that I'm getting a gift.

My 4 year old is not weird at all. She did not just ask me if she was disco blind. HUH?

My bowl of CoCo Wheats does not look like a bowl of rock hard sludge. Doesn't taste like it either. and to think I used to love this stuff as a kid.

I did not run around yesterday, cleaning my house because of our bible study at night.

I was not peeved at all when the bible study was canceled because of the blizzard. C'mon people, I cleaned my house for you!

It's not wrong to want to have my house clean for other people, and not care if it's clean for my family, is it?

We did not have blizzard like conditions yesterday, resulting in 6 inches of snow. It will not be 40 today, melting all that snow. (why did it bother snowing at all?) And Tuesday, we are not supposed to have thunderstorms. BE SPRING ALREADY!


Have a great week.

Not Me Monday


I thought my week went perfect again and I would not have to write one of these today. Until the last few days of the week.

First of all, I did not wake up in the middle of the night thinking about a couple, and how they were doing. This couple does not reside in a fiction book!

I did not hear my youngest start to cry while playing in the basement, wait for her to come up and find me, and when she did find me, I did not discover this giant goose egg on her forehead.


Yesterday, she did not come up crying from the basement, and find out she slipped and fell again and bumped her first goose egg, which made her goose egg double in size. (no picture) poor baby, she's fine today.

I was not up all night with child no. 1, listening to her labored breathing, and helping her while she was throwing up.

My body does not ache from trying to squeeze 2 people in a twin bed.

Child no. 2 did not come in the room at 5 a.m. saying her belly hurt, then squeeze in the twin bed with us. Meanwhile hubby was not peacefully sleeping alone in a queen bed.

Speaking of hubby, he does not have a 50th birthday coming up on Friday, and my sister did not send him a birthday card filled with 50 little balloon cut outs, that spilled out while opening the card

Poor ole man. 9 p.m. is not past his bed time.


He is totally not going to hate me for posting this picture of him.

Happy not your 50th Birthday week honey! :o)

Child no. 1 did not pick out her own clothes combo. (see photo) good grief girl.

MckMamma has tons more Not Me's going on over at her blog, since she's the one who started all this. Check it out.

Not Me Monday

Not Me Monday. Everybody does it. If you don't know how, head on over to MckMama's and find out how to join in.

I am not happy one bit, that since my husband is going to pass Phoebe's school on his way to a job, he brought her to school. I was looking forward to going out in 8 degree weather.

Because he took her to school, it wasn't me who reminded both of them a zillion times what not to forget....backpack, car seat...don't forget to leave car seat at school...

They both didn't give me the evil eye over the fact that I thought that they were brain dead.

After I told Abby to be careful getting out of the bathtub, because she might slip and fall and whack her head, Abby did not slip and fall and whack her head on the bathtub.

I didn't spend Valentines Day with my two girls and my sister while hubby spent the night with his mother at a Celtic Women concert.

He did not practically wet himself when he found out how close they got to sit to the stage and the women smiled at him like he was the only guy in the room.

I did not cry like a baby watching the Disney princesses and their princes skate so beautifully around the rink at Disney On Ice.

I did not forget my camera, and then say to myself, "I'll use my phone camera", then leave my phone in the car.

This is not the only picture I have of our Disney On Ice night.

I was not appalled at the prices of Disney junk and food. Bad economy BAH! People were not buying left and right.

We didn't get any of that junk. No way. I'm saving our money.

Grandma did not buy most of this junk. She never does!


I'm not mad that the post offices are closed today. I don't have packages that need to get out.
President's Day, smeshidents day.

My daughter is not screaming at me from the basement to get down there and walk on my treadmill. geesh...better go.

Have a nice Monday. And lucky you if you work for the government and have this day off.

Not Me Monday


Blah, blah, blah, Not Me Monday started at MckMama's. Free therapy, yadda, yadda, yadda. Check her out. Mr. Linky, so forth and so on.


It's not me that thought I had a perfect week, so I wasn't going to do a Not Me Monday.

My husband is gone all week, so when he comes home Friday night, there is no way it could have been me who picked a fight, which ended up with me flipping out and sleeping in the other room.

I didn't refuse to make him something to eat.

I didn't humble myself the next morning, asking for forgiveness from him...and my daughters for having to listen to my stupidness.

I never would have asked him for forgiveness on my knees, while calling him master. Good grief, that is soooo not me.

He didn't laugh at me and thought I was off my rocker for doing that.

We didn't end up having a great rest of the weekend.


After one of my posts, when someone asked me how much older my husband was than me, I didn't avoid answering that question... for 2 days.

Mimi.... He's not 2 years older than me, which does not make me 47.

I don't have a hard time turning older.


Wow, and I thought I was perfect this week. Silly me. Enjoy your week. I'm coming over to check on how not perfect you were.

Monday, February 2, 2009

Not Me Monday


Where has the week gone? This is crazy. And so were some of my days of last week.


Let's start with my children. God love em, and so do I.....


After resting in my bedroom for a mere moment, I did not come down to every room in the house covered in Barbie, Polly Pocket, Loving Family, stuffed animals...

They did not have a meltdown and tell me it's soooooo hard to pick up.

My dear husband. God love him too, and so do I...

He did not have me go shopping for a giant list of goodies he wanted to eat during the Super Bowl. No taco's, or taco dip, or chips, or black bean salsa, or pop, or cheese or sausage, or ice cream. Nope, none of that stuff came into our home.

I did not go to 3 stores looking for taco dip.

Dear husband did not only eat 1 taco. grrr

And now for me. God love me and so do I...

I did not post my 100th post yesterday, and am not having a fun giveaway, because of it. I do not want all of you to read my 100th post giveaway below this one and leave me a comment to enter.

I am not giving this away.

So please do not go the post below this one to see more.

Happy Not Me Monday! Check out MckMama's blog for more of this weekly therapy.

Not Me Monday



Even though MckMama is on a cruise ship right now, her love for us abounds, by still setting up her Mr. Linky for Not Me Monday. Don't know what NMM is? Check her out at My Charming Kids.

I bet many of us will have this first Not Me.


I am NOT jealous at all that MckMama is cruising the Caribbean. Nope, give me below zero temps anytime.

While at the grocery store the other day, my 4 year old and I did not smell the worst smell ever in the aisle.

And because my child has the most perfect manners, because manners is one of the first things I teach my kids...she did in no way say in a loud voice, "Who farted?!"

The guy ahead of us did not make a beeline around the corner into the aisle that we just came from.

We did not laugh about it throughout our shopping trip.

Since I'm on the subject of having perfect children...my kids always listen to me, right? So when I told Abby not to climb up into the cupboard and get the tiny little beads that she wanted to do a craft with... this did not happen.Oh, and she doesn't have gum in her hair either, because again, she listens to me when I tell her to keep it in her mouth.

I did not spend Saturday cleaning barf off the bedding, wall, carpet, pajamas, hair and face of my 6 year old.

And because she didn't barf at 1 in the morning, I didn't leave the puke-filled mess of blankets and comforter wrapped up in the hallway, to be washed at a more civil time.

Such fun. I'm heading over to see your perfect lives. Have a great week.

Not Me Monday


These weeks are going by way to fast. Here we are with another Not Me Monday. MckMama is the head Not Me, and has a list of others who partake in this stuff we "don't " do. Check her out.


I was not thrilled at all that Phoebe didn't have school Thursday and Friday because of mega below 0 temps. Why would I want to stay in my p.j.'s all day?

Which I didn't do. Stay in my p.j.'s that is.

And even if I had to go somewhere, I certainly would not have thrown a hoodie over my bra-less p.j.s and leave the house like that.

I did not forget to take my car in on Friday for some engine light that's been on.

The car place did not forget to put my appointment in their book, so when I call to say I'm late, they didn't say.."you're not late, we don't have you down." nice!

While waiting for my car to be looked at, I was not creeped out and planning my get-away, with plenty of screaming, because a guy was staring at my child, then sat right next to her, when there were 7 open seats around. C'mon creep, only 2 other people were in the waiting room, with 7 open seats, why take that one? creep. Ever hear of personal space. Stay out of mine and my childrens.

And because I didn't forget my appointment, that means I got the part that my car needed, instead of the other car that needed that same part earlier.

I am not waiting for the call, that my part is in.



I did not do a load of wash, that maybe should have been 2, or even 3 loads. Because I hate when you try to pull out the clothes, and they come out in one giant knotted mess. So of course I divided up that 1 load into more.

I did not just think that maybe I needed my Queen Mother-in-law to move in and do my laundry like MckMama's has done. I know she wouldn't shove 100 pounds of laundry in a 40 pound tub.

Witch PMS has not invaded our house. Because if she had, I would be easily irritated by every little thing. AND I'M NOT!

I am not in need of chocolate.


Have a great week everyone. I'll be over to read what you didn't do.

Sunday, January 11, 2009

All you can do is laugh.. +NMM

The post below will NOT be happening to me.


Picture this.... It's Valentine's Day, 2009. Hubby buys tickets for an evening out, traveling 2 hours to see his favorite group, Celtic Women. I'm sure there will be a nice dinner before the show. The lights dim, spotlights shine on the beautiful women with their flowing gowns. Their melodic voices fill the arena, like meadowlarks singing in a flower filled field. The love songs press into everyone's heart, and romance fills the air. Oh what a sight it will be.....for my husband and his
MOTHER!

Go read my title again..... go ahead, laugh. I am. I am not interested in the least to see these women sing. I would be bored to tears and asleep in a mere moment. Not my style of music, at all. I don't mind him going at all, I just wish it wasn't on Valentines Day. Not that we ever have plans to do anything then, but it's just not a day that you want to tell people that your husband went to a concert, who by the way has a women in it that he just,
loves, (her voice) and has the most beautiful eyes, so beautiful in fact that his wife is jealous, ( ha ha, I never said that, nor do I think it at all) his world, his fantasy..... with his mother.


HA...but I'll get him. The following day (Feb. 15th) I will be going to see some great guys doing what they do best, on ice. Yes, I am going to see Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Woody, Buzz Lightyear, the soldiers from Toy Story, (Mmmm, gotta love a man in uniform) and a slew of others perform Disney on Ice.....with his mother. Dear mom sure gets around. Gotta love her. Gotta laugh.

Nope, this will NOT be happening to me.



MckMama's free therapy continues here.

Not Me Monday


I'm not suffering from a cold, so it wasn't me who spent the entire afternoon in bed, napping and watching 3.5 movies. I do not look like Rudolph the red nosed reindeer either.

I'm not the least bit sad that Christmas vacation is over and Phoebe goes back to school.

I'm also not nervous about taking her to school even though there is a sheet of ice on the roads. I could be on the show "Ice Road Truckers".

I am not contemplating faking sicker than I am, just so hubby will take Phoebe to school.

I did not gain 3 pounds from new years eve to new years day. Chinese food doesn't do that to me.

I did not mess up on any resolutions yet this year.


Oh boy, this does not compare at all to what MckMama didn't do this past week. I can't compete with peeing in a cup. Check her out and many others for free therapy.

Not Me Monday





Last week....Christmas week. It was such a nice festive time, that I'm not sure I have to much to Not Me about. But let me try.

* It wasn't me who stepped on the scale before the Christmas festivities, and saw that I lost 2 pounds, then figured I can eat to my hearts content because so what if I gain those 2 pounds back.

* I did not gain those 2 pounds back, + 1.

* It was no thrill to me to see my girls faces on Christmas morning. Nope, an excited and in awe face does nothing for me.

* The little notes and drawings the girls made for my hubby and I, for our gifts, did not melt my heart one bit. Nope, I want useless store bought stuff under my tree.



That's about it. I had a really good week. A little sick of all the weird weather we are getting here, (snow, fog, rain, ice, snow, snow, did I mention snow?) but all in all a good Christmas week. Celebrating Christ's birth....how much could go wrong?


To check out other not me's, click here and see why MckMama started all this Not Me stuff. And please remember her baby, Stellan in your prayers. He's been a sick little boy the past few days.

Have a safe and happy New Year.

Not Me Monday






This will be the next to last Not Me Monday of the year. Maybe the new year will bring with it, a shorter list of not me's. Nahhh.

I did not think my children were the best performers in their school and church Christmas programs. They were not the only ones (IMO) who knew all the songs word for word and shined as they sang them.

I did not make my child go though this, at the first signs of congestion, because of school/church Christmas programs. There was no way she was going to end up with pneumonia this time of year. (my 6 year old did not threaten my demise if I were to post this picture)



It has not been below 0 all week, with several inches of snow to go with it, making going out to these programs difficult to attend. After all, I've been listening to the girls practice for 3 months, and since they were the only ones I was going to be looking at, why go out in the frozen tundra?

I do not keep leaving this post to shoo 3 giant man-eating crows away from my suet feeder. I know they need to eat, but my measly suet will not fill these beasts up.

This girl did not learn how to blow bubbles this week. (this is not a creepy picture)


This is not one of my Christmas presents. It is not my favorite gift.....so far.


I am not excited as a child for Christmas to come.

I am not at a loss for more Not Me's. My brain is not fried this morning. These were not the lamest Not Me's ever. Sorry for your suffering to read these.


MckMama, who started all this, I'm sure has better Not Me's to read, along with all the others. Check it all out. Merry Christmas to all!

Sunday, December 14, 2008

Not Me Monday



I know, I know, it's Sunday, and I'm posting my Not Me Monday. It will be Monday in a little over an hour, so I'm close. Check out MckMama's blog if you want to join in on the fun therapy, that NMM offers. She has all the instructions and rules there. As for me....

1) I did not get my Christmas shopping done, get the tree up and decorated, go grocery shopping, clean the house, get ready for a Christmas party that we had here tonight, run here, run there all on Saturday.

2) I was not Christmas shopping at 6:30 a.m.

3) It was not the most wonderful shopping experience I've had in a long time. (except for...head on to #4)

4) I did not see a guy "farmer blow" in the parking lot. (for inquiring minds... farmer blowing is when one holds one nostril closed and blows snot or a booger out of the other nostril, without a tissue.)

5) I did not walk to my car one lane away from the guy who farmer blew, so I wouldn't see or step in the "results."

6) I did not gag thinking about him doing that, nor did I keep thinking about him doing that, because if I did I would have kept gagging. Nope, I instantly forgot about it because it was so gross.

7) I did not think once I got to my car. "this will make for a good Not Me."

8) We did not have an awesome time tonight at our small life group Christmas get together. (for inquiring minds...small life group is about 14 of us from church who meet every other week in our home to study God's Word.)

9) I did not win SELAH greatest hymns CD from a fun game we played.

10) I did not say "I know him" (one of the singers from Selah) when all I know him from, is because he's the husband of Angie from the Bring the Rain blog that I read.

11) I am not a dork for saying that I know him.

12) We are not having 20 to 30 below 0 windchill temperatures the next few days.

13) I do not keep forgetting to get stamps to mail out my Christmas cards, Nope, they were out a week ago.

14) I am not starting to ramble on, because I'm tired from all the running around I've been doing. No, no no, I am wide awake and ready to go another round.


Nope, I'm really tired and heading to bed. Goodnight and good Monday, and have a great week. God bless all of you.

Not Me Monday


These weeks are flying by way too fast. MckMama at mycharmingkids thought of this as great therapy. It sure makes me laugh to see how "normal" people are. Just like me.

This past week...

It
wasn't me who was a total witch all week. There are three others who live here.

And they sure were
not the ones who made me witchy.

I did
not have a one-sided screaming match with my husband.

He did
not calmly tell me to not let the door hit me in the @$$ on my way out.

That did
not make me more nuts.

He does
not keep telling me he loves me anyway.

I do
not feel like a jerk for the way I have been acting.

I am
not going to apologize to him.

I do
not feel better since typing all this out, for a lot of people who don't know me, to see. (wow, this really is therapy)

I was
not sad to leave my baby at a birthday party today. She is not growing up way to fast. She was not sad to see me go. (WAHHHHH she really wasn't)

I did
not eat McCrappo's food two days in a row.

Boy oh boy, by the looks of my not me's I am certainly
not following the ways of the devil.

Well, now that I've confessed some of my faults to all of you it looks like I got some fessin' to do before my God Almighty.
Hopefully this week I will walk in Jesus' footsteps. You all have a great week too.
Thanks for stopping by.

Not Me Monday






Thanksgiving has come and gone, and I am stuffed, and we had a ball at our house. No fights, no hurt feelings, yes, it was a miracle. We now start the frantic rush to Christmas. Well, I don't get frantic, but some people might. But for now, seeing it's Monday, settle down, relax, read MckMama's blog for her rip roaring rendition of Not Me Monday. Why read her blog ? Because she started this therapy, and those are her rules. and if you do, you get to see hundreds of blogs posted there for their Not Me Monday. It's fun. And now, here are the things, I did not do last week. ;o)

*I did not almost cry at WalMart, because I saw very little of Christ in the Christmas decor aisles.

*I am not hoping for school to be closed, because of the snowstorm we are having. Wasn't having a five day Thanksgiving holiday enough?

*I did not see a guy at church with the tightest sweatpants on....EVER. I did not need to use my imagination .....really! ick! I did not look more than once..ok, twice. ( I had to pray sooo hard for me to not look) Please guys.... NO SWEATPANTS AT CHURCH!

*My 4 year old did not invent "Pooh head bowling" with Pooh's head as the ball, and a telephone and some other toys taped together as pins. I was not impressed by her imagination.
*Perry did not totally lose at "Pooh head bowling".

*Abby does not dress for summer every day of the year, even though it's 30 degrees outside.

*The 12 people I was having over for Thanksgiving dinner, did not turn into 14, and then 17 later on.

*I did not have one of the best Thanksgivings ever.

Have a great week all. God blesses you, go bless Him.

Sunday, November 23, 2008

Not Me Monday


If you're reading this, than you know the scoop. Click here to read other Not Me's.

As for me, this week I did not.....

*pass things on the stairs, (several times) that were there because they needed to go upstairs. Nope, I took it all up the minute I went up there.

*commit to having Thanksgiving dinner here for us and 3 family members.

*I am not having 12, possibly more people coming over for Thanksgiving dinner. (when on earth did that happen?)

*I do not have a 22 pound beast thawing in my refrigerator, for the 12 people that are not coming over.

*If I had a zit, I would not keep picking at it, because I know by leaving it alone, it will go home.

*I did not eat 2 helpings of everything at my sisters birthday party. That would be piggish.

*God did not teach me a lesson over a pot of chili.

*I was not happy to see hubby walk in the door tonight after a weekend of deerhunting.

Have a great week. I'm off to read what you didn't do.

Sunday, November 16, 2008

Not Me Monday


Where does the week go? What did I not do all week? Let's see....

1) I did not spend $35 on clothes and shoes for a bear and a rabbit from Build-a-Bear. I'm better with my money than that. If I would have spent said money they might have looked like this.


2) My 4 year old and I did not beat my six year old and my husband in a putting a puzzle together the fastest, race. They were not calling us cheaters. They were sooooo not sore losers.

3) I am not thrilled that gas prices are below $2 a gallon.

4) I was not at all happy that my husband left at halftime of the game to go sight in his gun for hunting. I love his not-so-nice language being spewed at the t.v.

5) I do not keep eating the donuts that my husband keeps bring home. Or the pies. No wait, I brought the pies home, so it doesn't count. And they are fruit pies, and fruit is good for you.


6) I do not have 2 goldfish in the freezer waiting to be buried.

7) Out of the numbers 1 thru 10, my husband did not give me a 42 on my new haircut. (thanks hon)

It's a nice day for skipping, so skip on over here to check out MckMama and others, Not Me Monday's. Have a nice day. God Bless You.

Not Me Monday


Here it is almost Tuesday, and I'm just starting out Not Me Monday. The honesty of a week of things I did not do. HA! mycharmingkids.net started this whole thing. Stop in to see a whole slew of things her followers did not do this week.

1) I did not send my husband out of the basement that we were all cleaning, because I was sick of his picking out every little piece of dirt that we were not getting to. (am I nuts? He was HELPING!)

2) I did not drink a vanilla latte at McDonalds just because it was free. ( I really would have never ordered that. Not my cup-o-tea, and the caffeine buzz is killing me.)

3) I did not call my husband at 8:20 this morning, to see if he got my daughter to school on time. I trust him completely.

4) I did not bribe my kids with a dollar, to clean the basement.

5) I did not renege on that dollar.

6) I am not letting my kids stay up later just so I can finish this post.

7) I am not excited at all that the stuff I saw at Target would make great Christmas gifts for my daughters, and they just happened to be in the dollar section. I'm no cheapskate.

8) I am not rotting in the same clothes that I rotted in yesterday.

9) My kids did not ask me why I yell, when after 4 times of asking them nicely to do something, I finally raise my voice to get it done.

10) I am not done with this day with my kids. They are always a joy to be with, and I hate when they have to go to bed.



I'm on my way to see what you have not done this week.
