"Not Me" Monday



Even though my alarm clock went off at 6:00 this morning, I did NOT manage to hit snooze twice before getting out of bed. I DIDN'T find Jonah in bed with me, and therefore I did NOT stumble around in the darkness finding my clothes so as not to wake him up. Once showered,I did NOT come back to my bed to peek at him and find him missing. I did NOT think I would find him sound asleep and back in his own bed trying to convince me that he NEVER got in mine. I would absolutely NOT enjoy the company that he brings me when he climbs in my bed, and I NEVER EVER bribe him with candy to encourage him to stay in his own bed every night.

I did NOT run to the kitchen this morning to make tea first thing this morning just to make it to the 8oclock hour. And I DENIED it when my sister asked me if I got up early. And I told her that I did NOT want to be a good steward for my little family, and I did NOT want to rush this morning.

I did NOT look at Alyssa's paper that I was supposed to sign and then forget to sign it. I did NOT put it in her notebook and send it to the teacher. It did NOT come back this afternoon for me to sign again.

I did NOT eat some of the kid's snack this morning in my classroom at Classical Conversation. I did NOT play CandyLand with 8 children today. And I certainly did NOT give them a dime, a penny, and a paperclip as extra pieces (since the game is made for 4 players). I did NOT sneak the GranMa Nut card up on the gloating little girl who was winning so that a younger child could actually win. I did NOT have my car rear ended in the parking lot on the first day of classes. I did NOT tell the lady that if she was going to rear end any car then she picked the right one.

This is NOT my first Not Me Monday post, and I do NOT approve this message.
