Not Me Monday

Mckmama- Not Me Monday


Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to http://www.mycharmingkids.net/ to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

It is NOT me who is leaving for Peru in 11 days and hasn't even begun to pack, think about packing or really contemplate packing...I would NEVER procrastinate about my first international trip ever...no way...no how.

It is NOT me who, while getting the kids down from the lunch table, go, in a rare by myself moment, to the restroom to find that one of the kids, most likely my mischievous 2 year old had gotten soap all over counter, removed the decorative items from the back of the commode and put my hand towel in the bath tub at some point this morning and I never realized he was gone...sheesh...you'd think it was Monday or something and surely no 2 year old should ever be unsupervised, right?

I was definitely NOT me that just ate two waffles from the freezor (heated in the toaster, not frozen at least) because I was too lazy to make lunch for myself.  I would most certainly eat better, knowing I'm going to traveling in 11 days and getting married in a few weeks and want to look and feel my best.

It is NOT me that realized, when looking for fall decorations to put out THIS year, that I never actually took them downstairs from LAST year and that they were in the corner of my bedroom with a tub of Christmas decorations on top of them that I never put away either..I mean seriously?  Who does that?  *ahem* certainly not me

It is for sure NOT me that realized that the list of things I needed to do before the wedding that I mentioned in my LAST "not me" post has since been misplaced and surely not had any items completed, I mean it's only like 12 weeks til the big...not like it's coming up soon or anything...

Not Me Monday

Mckmama- Not Me Monday


In an effort to admit (and remind myself) that I am indeed not perfect and that I *gasp* sometimes say and do things that are not rational, "normal" or should be repeated, but hey...whaddya gonna do?  I am linking up with MckMama for her return of the Not Me Monday post.....

I did NOT stay out AGAIN til 1am last night "saying goodbye" to my new fiance when I should've been in bed since my day starts at 6am and it's a hour drive home

I did NOT just realize this morning that in the next 14 weeks, I will be going on my first mission trip ever to another country, getting married for the second time, living with someone for the first time in MANY years and start my "to do" list for the things I want to complete before I get married...I'm tired just thinking about it and certainly wouldn't procrastinate until it's panic time to get everything done...no, not me!

I did NOT scream, use my outside voice or otherwise inappropriate tone to gently remind my two year old that we don't play cars in the commode...I mean seriously...who should be watching this kid?!?!?  I am a professional child care provider for crying out loud...

I did NOT put off Wal-Mart shopping this weekend in lieu of one more day to eat out the fridge and pantry so that I could spend a little bit more cuddling and kissing quality time with my fiance yesterday....I would NEVER do that, not ME!

I did NOT just sit down to finish this post and tell the kids, give Nannie ONE more minute to post this...NOT ME!!!

I did NOT just say to my 3 year old boy, "no I really don't think it would be funny if someone pooped on my head" I mean, really, who utters such words in their everyday life!

I totally did NOT forget to link back to MckMama's blog http://www.mycharmingkids.net/ as the directions said...sheesh...certainly not ME!

URGH!  I did NOT go back to reread the directions and realize that I had not copied and pasted the correct information to link up to MckMama's site...sheesh...maybe I should quit while I am behind...lol...hopefully third time's the charm!

He asked...and I said YES!!!!

What a whirlwind of a weekend it has been...I need to catch up on some old postings...but wanted to share the great news that RC and I are ENGAGED...God is SO good and knew my heart and guided our paths in just such a way that I would be married to a Godly, loving and passionate man! I am SO blessed!  Here are a few pictures from the proposal!
