Joy Joy! It is already Monday which means joining with other whiners bloggers in the “Not Me” Monday carnival! MckMama at My Charming Kids hosts this fun event each week.
So let the fun begin:
It wasn’t ME hiding my face in shame when a young daughter said (while visiting someone’s elderly parents), “I like this house Mommy!” “You do?” asked the Mommy. “Yes! It doesn’t smell very bad.” Oh dear!!! It wasn’t my father who laughed and said, “That was a back handed compliment!” LOL!
It wasn’t my daughter who looked at a picture of a Chick-fil-a cow in hair rollers (wearing fuzzy bedroom shoes) and said, “That cow is married.” Her unsuspecting Mommy said, “Why do you think she is married?” and the daughter said, “Because she looks like YOU Mommy!” I SURE AM GLAD THAT WASN’T MY DAUGHTER who said it loud enough for ALL of the surrounding chicken-eaters to hear! Hmph! I’m glad it wasn’t me who had to watch the woman behind this little girl almost choke on her lunch when she heard the comment.
It also wasn’t me whose precious daughter spoke loud enough for the surrounding eaters to hear, “Mommy, do you remember your first marriage?” “YES DEAR” said the poor Mommy “SINCE I’VE ONLY BEEN MARRIED ONCE.” That is a good way to get rumors started in a small town. lol
It wasn’t me who was excited about bringing some new friends to our church on Sunday — just to have a young daughter take their hands and escort them to our UTILITY ROOM! For cryin’ in the rain!
It also wasn’t me who had just taken a vase full of dead to dying flowers into the utility room right before the visitors arrived (since IF I had poured them out, the water would have smelled like rotten eggs)! Deep sigh! Perhaps I should just have an open house and serve refreshments in that blessed utility room since it seems to get so much traffic lately!!! (See this post.) Again … for cryin’ in the rain! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
It wasn’t me who moved a pile of clean clothes to a rocking chair that so conveniently sits in the corner behind our bedroom door (so that from the hall the room looked clean). Nope, not me. Of course, this wouldn’t have been a problem if a certain little GIRL hadn’t have taken our guests INTO our room for a tour! What in the world?!?!?! Do I have NO control over this social butterfly?!?!? (WILL SOMEONE PLEASE PAY FOR ME TO HAVE A MAID?) It also isn’t me who was thanking God that she didn’t take them into our bathroom. Come on — this was Sunday morning folks. How does your house look while preparing for church? If great — don’t tell me.
It wasn’t me who was THRILLED to see my MIL bring my daughter a box of chocolates for Valentine’s Day! Evil laugh — mwaah haaa haaa haaaaa! It also wasn’t me who asked my daughter to share! I wouldn’t dare take a gift away from my innocent, precious toddler! Mwaah haaa haaa haaaaaaa! Nope, not ME!
