Not me Monday

Not me Monday!

I will always know what day it is because I am the organized freak of this family and having a baby would not have changed that. So today at the stop light, I didn't realize that it was Monday and that I remembered that its time to do a Not Me Monday post. ... because I never forget you see. And I also, didn't scold myself for thinking McMama was wrong earlier today about it being Monday and being a day late with her post... Cause I'm always right you know.

This week, I also didn't forget Avery's precious lion that he takes everywhere. I yell at Brant for doing it so I would NEVER do the same thing i get upset over, and not realize it for two days.. then go begging our friends to scour their house for it... Nope Not me.. I always guard that lion for Avery!

This past week at work, I also did not wave my ID card in front of the hand sanitiser and not the key pad. I also didn't' sigh and do it THREE more times while complaining that my card doesn't work... No Not me, I know how to work security doors!

I also and the most organized ninny on earth and would never forget numerous things in the morning, making me run in and out of the house so many times, waking the boys up... I remember everything the first time. I also still don't get to work and realize I left something else at home... I bring everything with me the first time!

Last night, I also didn't put Avery to bed and run for a bowl of ice cream and while savoring said ice cream, my little man didn't wake up and I waited to get him, then as I knew he wouldn't go back to bed, began nursing him and eating ice cream at the same time. I am completely in tune with Avery and would certainly put the ice cream away to tend to him... Nope not me.



I also, this past month did not take a picture of my last clock out at Chick-fil-A. I wouldn't take a picture documenting the end of my years at CFA.. nope not me...



My sister and I also didn't go to Duncan Donuts on Friday and hide the evidence from her husband. We would never not offer to pick him up anything from his fav place...



I also, didn't beg Brant to let us go out to eat after church to IHOP. Since nobody ever wants to go there. Nope.. not me.. I don't beg not to cook for my family. I always cook and stay home and save money....



I also didn't go to through jury duty's security line and when asked what was in my bottle, gave them a blank stare and stated what bottle... ?!?!? I always know what is in my purse and take security seriously. Nope not me.



I also did not call Brant on the way to jury duty this week to see how Avery takes his fruit for the first time and asked for a minute by minute play by play of his actions... Nope not me





So hopefully this starts the week off right ! :)
