Not Me Monday

This week's Not Me Monday, is brought to you by Mrs. BlogginFromTheEdge.
Props to McMomma for kicking off this bloggy fun, so be sure to pop over to My Charming Kids and check out all the other great Not Me Monday posts.

1. I bet there are terrible mommies who would bribe their child with diet soda and/or chewing gum to get them to quiet down in the grocery store, but I'd never resort to such measures.

2. I would never shave my son's head near bald just so I could space haircuts farther apart and save some money. That's just frugal meets mean.

3. Because I am such a devoted wife, I'd never give my DH the cold shoulder because he doesn't want me to get an IPhone. Never ever.

4. And only some cruel mean mommy would add some water to her son's bedtime cup of milk becuase she was running low and was too tired and lazy to trek out to the store for some more....surely not me.

5. And you'd be totally wrong to think I purposefully put boiled egg in my potato salad this weekend just becuase I know it grosses my MIL out. Nope, that would be bad hostess manners. I assure you, it was a complete mistake. Slipped my mind.

Well I hope you all are just as classy and sophisticated and would never be guilty of any of the above either! Happy Monday!

Not Me Monday

I figure Not Me! Monday, a blog carnival created by McMomma, is perfect for this blog. What is better than complaining about your family in the format of saying it would never happen? Be sure to pop over to My Charming Kids and check out McMomma and all the other great Not Me! Monday posts.

1. I did NOT avoid cleaning my house even though I was having out of town relatives over for a visit on Friday.

2. I would NEVER wish that said out of town relatives were not coming over because well I could care less if I saw them

3. I DIDN'T botch the brownies I was making to serve them because I was leaving to go out to lunch with my hubby.

4. I would NEVER salvage said brownies by making them into a trifle.

5. I did NOT eat the rest of said trifle today after eating salad for lunch

6. I would NEVER get ticked off at my grandmother for feeding C (my 1 year old) some of the chocolate pudding from the trifle AFTER I had given him some and he spit it out

7. I would NOT also give it to my son B (2.5 yrs) and watch him spit it out in his hand too

8. I did NOT feed my family leftover pizza for dinner on Sunday after just having pizza on Friday (yep with the relatives... I would never be so lazy as to serve guests pizza)

9. I did NOT create this blog as a place for me to complain about my relatives without them reading about it

10. I did NOT create the OMG stories as a place for the rest of you to complain about yours too (read the side bar if you're interested)

11. I am NOT hoping that posting on NMM will bring more traffic to my little blog here

12. I'm NOT glad that things are going a bit smoother in McMomma's life so she can have NMM again.

13. I'm NOT going to go visit some of the other NMM blogs to see whatelse everyone is not doing.
