NOT ME MONDAY!

Inspired by MckMama and her 4 incredibly charming kids :)

I absolutely was not told to avoid walking though the mud around our house after it definitely did not rain for 5 days straight -- Therefore I clearly did not completely forget and then did not slip and slide and bust my butt in 4 inches of mud... Nope! Not me!

I did not celebrate my husband's 38th birthday yesterday -- And I certainly did not make him breakfast, give him a massage of a lifetime and treat him to lunch and presents -- He was absolutely not loved as much as he deserves and I was not totally exhausted by 9:00 p.m. -- Nope! Not me!

I did not change my work schedule so that I have to be here Monday - Fri rather than only Wed - Friday -- This was not because I knew I'd have more clients and this is not because I'm completely crazy -- Because now I really do not not have two days off a week! -- Nope! Not me!
I absolutely, positively did not delete my very cute background in the midst of adding a few adverts and other fun things to my blog -- This is because I'm not computer illiterate and I do not not know what I'm doing -- I also have not not had time to fix it because... eh hem, now I'm working 5 days a week (sympathy always accepted :) -- Nope! Not me!

I did not receive an email from my dad (who is not my hero) this week that did not totally blow my emotions out to the point where I was not wiping tears off my keyboard -- It was not not only the contents of the email, but the fact that when my dad read it, he thought to send it to me and that did not hit me deeply -- Nope! Not me!

I did not create a tag for blog this week called Wondering Wednesday and I am not excited about who'd like to do it -- I'm not really wondering about Sass, Maegan and Cocaine Princess and I can not not wait til Wednesday :) -- Nope! Not Me!

I did not read about the family we are sponsoring for Christmas this year -- The children did not want all the normal things children want -- and I did not cry when I read that all the mother wants are gas and grocery cards (um... emphasis here... all the mother wants are the very necessities we take for granted everyday to support ourselves and families) -- So, no... I did not bawl when I read that -- Nope! Not me!

Lastly, but certainly not least... I am NOT so EXCITED about a give away that I'm doing THIS FRIDAY!! and I do NOT want you to tell all your friends about it!! Nope! Not me!

I loved your first one about slipping and falling in the mud. So completely sounds like something I would do. Hope it didn't hurt too much! :) Have a wonderful day!!

So wait...I come back wednesday and Friday, right? I mean, actually, I'm here every day, but I'm so stinking confused.

My contest has eaten my brain.

I've been tagged! I promise to get around to it.

Hope your fall didn't hurt too much.
I love these posts of yours- Not Me.

You are sponsoring a family, what a loving and generous person you are. So supportive and always thinking of others.

XOXO,

FH -- OMG! If we were friends, I would have laughed with you... but now I'm wondering if you were OK :)

CP -- Seriously? You make me tear up when I read your comments --
(and... you'll be tagged WED... so you're off the hook til then :)

Ok, so I get it when you say "not" when you really don't mean it. But it just throws me when you say "not not".
