Not Me Monday - Extended Time Off Edition


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

And I figured – hey – what better time to come back to my blogging roots than on Not Me Monday when I can be in complete denial about my absence. So, without further ado…

I most definitely have not completely ignored this blog the past **cough-cough** 3 months. Lots of good excuses – kids, work, kids, PTO, kids, house cleaning, yard work, kids, facebook, blah, blah, blah. Frankly, I don’t have any good excuses, especially since there are bloggers that use these “challenges” to write their blogs each day. I basically just suck at time management when it comes to my blog, and I need to buck up and get over it.

As the perfectly prepared mother I am, I did not have to go to Hell-Mart, Kohl’s & Target at 9:30pm Saturday night (ya' know - the day before Easter) to get white dress sandals for the girls because I completely forgot they had to actually wear shoes to church.

To add to that, when Frick (Ashlyn) got up the next morning and got ready, I most certainly did not get secretly furious with her for digging in the back of her closet to find last year’s very casual white flip-flops when my brand new purchases did not fit her Project Runway style fashion needs. THREE PAIRS of shoes I bought to give them a choice, but NNNNNOOOOOOOOOO, none of those will do.

It is not even slightly possible that I have been switching my mother-in-law’s toilet paper to “over” every time we go to their house, just because I know she is an “under” person. Nope – would NEVER do that – snicker, snicker…

There is more to come, including another episode of "The Freaks I See in Hell-Mart", pics of one of the girls in her Easter dress and VERY visible snake-head tattoo, and a phenomenal experience I recently had with a Nashville guitar guru.
