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.

Here goes my first attempt.

In the last week I did NOT get my last shot for the Haiti trip and I also did NOT get my prescription filled for malaria pills. I couldn't figure out why they had to order them. Doesn't everyone ask for those? :)

I was also NOT so busy that I couldn't keep my schedule straight. Nope, that would never happen to me. I also did NOT have time to watch stupid reality tv. Nope, I would NEVER. Speaking of tv, I do NOT love watching 90210 and am NOT a month behind.... it's ok it's not new until March 31.

I did NOT have 9 girls between the ages of 3 and 8 at my house. I did NOT keep them up way past their bedtime and let them eat everything they wanted. I would NEVER do that. This past weekend is NOT a total blur and it did NOT end like this:




What did you NOT do this week?

It's Amazing...

• How much bigger my room looks when it's clean.
• How you can see a friend once or twice a year and always pick up where you left off.
• How much you can miss someone whenever you hear about them.
• How much it hurts when a "friend" doesn't respond.
• How something you used to have/do all the time, you no longer miss.
• How the more things change, the more they stay the same.
• How fast time goes when you don't want it to, and goes slow when you wish it hurry up.
• How you can be constantly 'labeled' like you're no more than that.

It's been a crazy week and it's only going to get worse before the weekend is over. Last night I had dinner with a friend from high school, which was great! Tonight I had church and ended up bailing on my cousin - I felt horrible, but I am exhausted! Tomorrow night we have a sleepover for our missionettes girls (at our house). Saturday we're working Women of Faith for K-Love and then going to dinner with my friend Crystal. Sunday we have church and a K-Love concert (Kutless). Whew!!! Happy weekend everyone. :)

I Wish

At the end of the day, truly I wish...

• The DVR wouldn't stop recording 3 minutes before the show ends.
• Laundry would do itself...
• ...same for the dishes
• I didn't worry so much.
• I would pray more...
• ...and spend more time in God's Word.
• That I could move all my friends to one place.
  
• That I had more local friends.
• That the man of my dreams wasn't faceless.
• I wasn't so competitive.
• I was more giving.
• I was more motivated
• I wouldn't have eaten so much at dinner.

10 reasons

With what I do in ministry and if you see me in public, I make it pretty well known that I definitely want to have kids. So here are my top 10 reasons - in no particular order.

1. Their smiles and laughter
2. Baby powder smells
3. Their stories as they get older - they're always so matter of fact!
4. Hugs & kisses
5. Cute little clothes
6. When they hold your finger with all their might
7. Playing with them on the playground
8. An excuse to watch cartoons! :)
9. Having them fall asleep on you.
10. Cuddling when they're sick.
