Oh NO....NOT ME!!

Feeling bad about letting your kids eat junk for breakfast? Not getting MOM OF THE YEAR because you let a child out of the house and made it to the store withOUT shoes? Well don't worry, we're all in this together. So sit back and enjoy some of the things I did not do this week. Then head over to Mckmama's site(just click on the Not Me button at the top of this post) and see what a lot of other moms have NOT been doing this week.

This week I did not waste a ton of printer paper and ink--all while trying to actually SAVE paper!! Nope not me I am very careful with how I put paper in my printer and would never put it in upside down when I'm printing on the back of a printed page.

I did not have the opportunity to hear many (and I do mean MANY) versions of Away in A Manger as sung by a certain little blond 3 year old.

I have not forgotten to pick up the same item from the store all week. And said item has not been on my shopping list each time. I always check my list before I leave to make sure I have all the needed items.

I did not spend 2 hours shopping for something to wear to Steve's company Christmas party and then not buy a single thing for me or Steve.

I did not have a wonderful time at the party with Steve and we did not enjoy staying in the hotel over night--just us!!

I am not totally grateful to Mimi and Kokopat for keeping all of the kids this weekend.

We did not have a wonderful visit with our old neighbors in Charlotte and they are not doing great recovering from their wreck.

Steve and I did not go to a movie just because we didn't have the kids and the theater was within walking distance of our hotel.

If we had gone to a movie, we would not have chosen the midnight showing. Since we did not go to the midnight movie, then we were not walking in uptown Charlotte at 2:30AM.

I most certainly did not tell Steve how much I disliked cold weather--nope not even once.

I also did not tell Steve that we were not getting in the elevator at the hotel with 2 other couple simply because they had been parting a lot harder than we had!!

I also did not see young ladies dressed like REINDEER at several different places. If I had seen this, I'm sure that their "attire" would have been longer than the shirt I sleep in at night!!

I did not leave Mimi and Kokopat with 2 little people where had been coughing like crazy and a teenager who needed to be someplace at 8AM!
