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.

I had such a busy weekend that it's hard to think of things I haven't done lately. However, I am proud to say that while we were at a surprise birthday party on Friday night, I did not skip anything even remotely alcoholic and drink water all evening. I always think that it would be nice to get a sitter and enjoy an evening out with friends, but when I get the chance I drink water and insist on being home by 10:00! I think I must be getting old or something.

On Saturday, I didn't ditch my family for an hour to enjoy lunch with my oldest (as in time, not age!) friend and her daughter. But if I did, I wouldn't have had such a great time reminiscing about the "olden days" (see this post: http://mccauleykids.blogspot.com/2010/02/memory.html) and comparing them to our current lives. And I wouldn't have left feeling just a little nostalgic either!

Finally, I wouldn't be lazy enough to feed my growing children frozen pizza (well, I would've cooked the pizza!) and fruit for dinner. And I definitely didn't allow them to eat as much raspberry sherbet as they wanted for dessert...and fruit snacks...and mini powdered donuts. What kind of mother would I be if I fed my children that kind of garbage?!

And now, I'm not just a little bit annoyed that it's taken such a long time to compose this post because my husband keeps interrupting me to talk about his day....like that's more important than posting my first Not Me! Monday! post in almost a month! Sheeesh!
