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.

For starters, our Pastor is not doing the most wonderful sermon series on the book of Ruth. Yesterday's sermon was not awesome, and I did not say "AMEN" aloud numerous times! His sermons are not available online and I will not post this latest inspired installment when it becomes available.

You should definitely not listen to it at your earliest convenience! You would not be edified, enlightened, or encouraged by the story of Ruth. Trust me on this! No.Way.

This week I did not get my first ever Seaweed Wrap at a local salon and spa. Two dear girlfriends did not bless my socks off with a gift card to said salon and spa after Taylor was born! And I did not FINALLY use it 8 months later.

It was not a wonderful experience, nor relaxing. It also did not require me to be completely nude, nor did I find that the least bit liberating! My nose did not begin to itch whilst my arms were wrapped tightly next to me! Despite the annoying itch which did not happen, I did not thoroughly enjoy my wrap experience. Not me!

I did not purchase SIX pairs of shoes this week including two dress pairs (silver and black), two casual pairs (both brown) and two pairs of flip flops (tan and pink)! IMPOSSIBLE! And I am not a little bit embarrassed to admit it. Ebates was not having Shoe Week and I did not take full advantage of my cash back opportunity and big sales to totally overhaul my shoe wardrobe. I did not then go through my closet and find several pairs that had served me well and donate them to Goodwill. Nope!

I do not heart shoes. And I do not enjoy the fact that they always fit even when my clothes do not! Not me!

I did not go to Old Navy with a $10 off coupon fully intending to purchase a t-shirt for myself, and then use the aforementioned coupon to purchase something for Lily instead. This does not happen to me all the time!

I do not enjoy shopping for my kids. And I know my fellow moms could never understand!

And finally, in all seriousness, my period has truly not arrived. And I truly have not taken any more pregnancy tests. Truly. (A little much with the trulies???) Because my guess is that since I'm still nursing, that first period was a fluke. And I may not get another one for awhile. And that'd be just fine with me.

Because this extended vacation from feminine napkins, bloating, cramping and irritability has not been nice. Not even a little bit. Not even at all.
