Not Me Monday

 Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.
Can't believe it's Monday already!
 I guess a couple things did not happen to me this last week. I did not wish, even for a fleeting moment, that I were still single and childless so I could be free to do stuff  like some of my single friends are doing. I did not feel like real life was passing me by. One kiss from my husband and one little smile from my daughter did not make me forget all these ramblings and be extremely thankful for the life I have now. 
 I did not take my baby to bed with me last night so she would sleep in and, consequently, so would I. That was not proven to be an unsafe practice when I woke up to her crying and found her in a huge basket of unfolded laundry that I had conveniently left right by my side of the bed the night before. Had this happened, though, which it certainly did not, she would have landed on the pile of towels and t-shirts and remain completely unharmed.
Looking forward to reading some of your Not Me posts!

Not Me Monday

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

Ok, where do I start ...

First of all, I did not sell some stuff that my daughter no longer uses on Craigslist to help pay a medical bill, only to not go and spend part of the money on a cute new baby outfit at Target. This is not that outfit.



I certainly did not eat two chocolate chip cookies while looking at pictures of my skinny self from two years and 20 pounds ago, because I always feel good about myself and would never do that sort of thing.
The endorphins that my body produced as a response to the chocolate did not make me feel better at all.

Oh, of course, I did not mumble "Gosh, maybe formula isn't all that bad" while pumping for the umpteenth time today. I couldn't have done it because I totally look forward to those suction cups attached to my body and don't make a list of things I could be doing instead in my head.

And finally, I did not taste the rice cereal that I have been feeding my daughter for the last three days and find it not as disgusting as I thought. I did not later proceed to eat up what she didn't finish off. That would be especially disgusting since it was rice cereal mixed with my own breast milk. I did not tell my husband about it just to gross him out, either.




Oh, and just one more ... I did not think "Oh, that's kind of a good idea" when I heard that somebody hid their dirty dishes in the oven to keep visitors from seeing them. Because I have never put my dishes into a plastic bin in the bedroom as a way to quickly clean up on a short notice.
It'll be interesting to read about what has not been happening with everyone else ...
