If you haven't heard about "Not Me Monday", take a visit to McMama's site to learn the rules. (And, if you haven't ever read McMama's site, set aside some time, grab a box of tissues and be ready to be amazed!) Basically, it's a raw and honest 'confessional', of the things that none of us would 'not' do during our daily lives.
This is my first time participating.... so here goes!
"Not Me Monday"
Thursday afternoon as I was late heading out the door, I did not avoid answering a phone call from my mother. She 85 years old, for the love of Pete! That might have been her final phone call and I certainly would not be so selfish as to walk away and tell myself I'd just call her later!
While volunteering at school on Tuesday, I most certainly did not ask Brett's teacher to talk to the students about constantly having their fingers in their mouths and digging in their noses. I would not be so rude as to assume that she did not notice these things or that if she did, that they were okay with her.
Since I am on a quest for health and fitness, I did not tuck my candy wrappers under other garbage already in the trash bin. A cheap sugar-fix would not be worth cramming my hand into vegetable peelings, egg shells, junk mail and coffee grounds.
I did not forget to take Ryan to band practice on Friday morning. He's been in band long enough for this to be routine. I have a calendar... I know the schedule... I would never forget such a thing!!
After "Bunco" Thursday night, I did not come home and replay everything I said, wondering if I sounded stupid or needy. That would be sooo Junior High and I'm way too mature to be that insecure!
There you have it... anyone else?

I have never tucked candy wrappers to the bottom of the trash either!! :)
I did not tuck the evidence of a Pumpkin Spice Latte in the bottom of the trash because that would be proof that I went twice in one day. I have a real problem! Cute Not Mes!
OMG hiding the candy wrappers...that had me ROLLING! And I would NEVER do that either! ;)
I have read Mc momma site and bringing on the rain that you have on your blog, I love both of them. Kim
I replay things in my head, too! I can't help it!
I loved your title so I had to come see. How many times have I said that as well!
I so hide candy wrappers especially the ones I stole from my boys Halloween stash!
I'm glad to know someone else besides me thinks about what they said and how they sound. I just with I'd stop caring so much.
Welcome to our crew! Laughed at the candy wrappers, avoiding the phone call and sounding like a jr. high school kid. I forced my husband to read my blog yesterday and he said "so, this is what you write about?" Thanks a lot! ;)
