Not Me! Monday!

It's Monday. Monday's aren't my fave, but Not Me! Monday sure makes it better! It's kinda like a band-aid, you know?! Thanks, MckMama, for this little slice of therapy!!

I am not a hypocondriatic alarmist (hmmm...I think I just made a new word!). So, when I got my Flu Mist on Wed, started sneezing Thursday and wheezing Friday night, I certainly was not convinced I was going to die! I did not tuck myself in with a pile of Luden's, a wad of used Kleenex, a clean pair of undies (you know, just in case, I kicked the bucket), and a quick prayer..."Please God, do not let me die a horrible, Flu Mist induced death. Please?". Turns out, I woke up alive in the morning! Phew!! Not that, you know, I would really worry...Not Me!!

I did not have a tiny little moment of panic, when disciplining my eldest child, I realized I was looking up at him. Yes, it is true. This baby of mine, is now taller than his mama, and that would not send me into palpitations and cold sweats. Sheesh, I've always said, "I'll gladly take the battles when the kiddos are small enough to physically pick up and remove from the situation." Well, friends, I can't pick him up anymore...and that does not make me feel like one old mama. No way, Not Me!

I am not on my second day without a shower. I am totally, completely, always on top of my hygiene. A few minutes of extra sleep is not totally worth going an extra day without a shower. Oh, no...I care waaayyyy too much about this "Hot Mom Hair" of mine than to just leave it a greasy mess...Not Me!

I have not just jumped on the MinneSOOOOTA Twins bandwagon...and certainly not because of Joe Mauer being so dreamy such an awesome baseball player! Heavens, no!! I enjoy baseball for the sport, and nothing else!

I did not have a major case of baby fever in church the other day. We did not sit behind a young father, his mother and his newish baby. This baby was not so cute, that I very nearly leaned over and asked if I could hold him. I sooooo wanted to snuggle him and smell his sweet head and kiss his yummy cheeks. NO!!! I do not want another baby!! (Really, I don't...oh, but I do...NO, I don't...ugh, but I kinda do...bah!)

I was not really proud of Josh Kelly and Katherine Heigl (like they were waiting for my approval) for adopting a special needs baby. I was not totally impressed with how they chose not to adhere to Hollywood's golden rule of perfection! I am not obsessed with celebrity gossip, oh no!! I have much more important things to do with my time, than await the Friday (Thursday if I'm lucky) arrival of People magazine!

Happy Monday, pals!! Hope it's a good week!
