Not Me Monday

There is no possible way that today is Monday already, because Tuesday was just yesterday. Well evidently MckMama has spoken(well I'm thinking she's going to soon anyway) and the whole rest off the world and therefore it must be Monday! So without further adieu let's get started with all those wonderful things I didn't do this week! My NMM's today are all about the kitchen! I thought this was a great choice, since nothing ever goes wrong in my kitchen!

I didn't decide to make some apple bread at 9 o'clock one night last week and I wasn't so eager to eat some that I pulled it out the second the timer went off and turned it upside down to empty from the bread pan. If I had done that the top would have fallen off revealing the gooey inside that wasn't finished cooking and I would have stuck the top back on and put it back in the oven. Then I would have checked on it a few minutes later to discover in all my haste to get some in my mouth I'd already turned off the oven so it didn't finish cooking. Of course then I'd turn back on the oven and forget about it thus have a hard lump of bread at the end of things. But none of that happened so no need to discuss it further!

I didn't and don't get big huge wet spots on my shirt everytime I wash my dishes! This would never because I'm always neat and wear an apron!

That last load of dishes didn't take me over 40 minutes to do because I'd delayed doing them so long! That wouldn't happen because I just love doing dishes so I always keep up with them!

I never leave the water going while I'm doing dishes either, since my daughter brought home water conservation homework for me to do I know better than that!

My kitchen floor is not in desperate need of mopping! When my son spilled some milk this morning I didn't say "that's fine the floor is filthy anyway". I've not been saying such things for over a week.

We have not eaten, painted, unloaded groceries, done homework, sorted Girl Scout cookies and more just within the past few days all at the kitchen table. My table never got 'swept' with that little broom you see lying on it either!



I did not smell a burning when I preheated my oven yesterday, I did not open it to find some unrecognizable piece of food in the bottom that I attempted removing with a napkin, it didn't fall apart because it was so well done!

I did not cook a whole dozen eggs yesterday morning for breakfast, I do not have enough people in my family to eat a dozen scrambled eggs!

I didn't help at all with the Dad & Lad cake bake for cub scouts! The cake they did was not supposed to look like a Nintendo DS with a Pokemon game on it, because I have no children that are that obsessed with such things!


I didn't just edit this post because I remembered I needed to get in a picture of their cake!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Monday, now go read some more NMM's!

Then Sings My Soul Saturdays

I love this song, of course that is why I'm sharing it! Knowing that God knows me better than anyone, that he knows my thoughts and can complete a sentence for me and is always there even when no one else knows I'm in need, He is there with open arms!

Go and visit Amy at Sign, Miracles and Wonders for more great music!

Grilling Goodness

I decided to jump on this easy and fun bandwagon! Okay it's getting a bit late, but if you want to join in this week or another go and check out Tina at Golden Goodness!

1. What is your favorite family activity? Right now I would have to say the beach, but anything that gets us out of the house and having fun together.

2. Do you know how to play poker? Maybe, a tiny bit, but I've not played in years.

3. Have you ever been to a chiropractor? Once quite a few years ago, I think it was supposed to help my TMJ they cracked my neck which freaked me out so I never wanted to go back.

4. Have you ever slopped pigs or milked cows? Nope no pigs or cows in my life!

5. How are you doing with the goals you made for the New Year? Uh, I made goals? Oh yeah I remember, well I've been exercising a lot more but not as much a I resolved and not eating like I should, I've not given up though. I've also been going to church more and memorizing some verses.

6. Is there something you dread doing every day? The dishes and laundry, the two things that never seem to stop!

7. What room in your home would you most like to buy new furniture for? That's tough, but right now I'd have to say our bedroom, we sleep on a full size bed that is lumpy and bumpy. I'm really wanting a King size lately!

8. If I had a dollar for every time I yawned, I'd be able to pay for some one to watch the kids so I could sleep for a few days. (I just yawned so that came to mind)

Spreading the Word

I had to come share about this giveaway, because even if you don't win anything I think you might want to buy something! The giveaway is for 10 people to win 'Secret Keeper Girl' items which are 'Great resources for biblical truth about modesty, purity and building mother/daughter relationships.' I know with only one daughter in the house who is officially a 'tween' we could really use several of these items. In fact I plan on purchasing the My Best Friend, Jesus Secret Keeper Girl Bible Study. Now go and visit the Bod Squad Blog so you can enter too!

PS. I'm still working on something, I've not forgotten, perhaps sometime next week I'll share what it is =)!

And one more thing I just realized my giveaways tag is misspelled....but I don't know how to change it, sorry spelling nuts!
