Well, I thought that since there are a lot of things in the past days that I did not do, and would not do I would share.
Last week I did not let the laundry fall behind and have to run loads twice because they sat in the washing machine until the point where they got smelly, I would never fall behind in my routine, and no matter how bad my week was I'd still make that extra effort to make sure all the clothes were in there proper place. I would not just wash and put away Ricks clothes so that he wouldn't notice that I am behind.
I am not annoyed that I own the worlds most annoying coffee table (as nice as it looks), it doesn't bother me that I have to wipe it 10 times a day to have it looking nice, and it for sure does not bug me that every time my kids walk by they can't help but make a new hand print on the freshly washed glass. I am also not one of those people that spend wasted effort picking up toys in the middle of the day, that would be silly since my kids aren't don't playing with them. I also wouldn't waste my time straighting out pillows on my couch over 20 times a day, putting throws back on the couch neatly, straighting out the rug, and I have even heard of people being crazy enough to straighten the fringe on their carpet, and getting annoyed when that gets out of place in minutes. I would never do that, but I'm sure there are crazy people out there that would!
This past week I did not happily carry my dog into its new home with a wonderfully big smile on my face, I would never give my dog away! I would not be one of those wives that gives her husband a dog for his birthday and then asks for it to go away on hers, that would just be odd.
I am not writing this with a big smile on my face either, as I, as any normal animal loving person was just devastated that my in laws wanted to have the dog, and was even more devastated that I now don't have a dog staring at me right now as I write this, and I even get a little sad that it isn't following me everywhere I go, and I'm not tripping over it constantly. I was totally not happy to see it go, and I miss it like crazy.
Well, there are a lot of crazy things that people in this world do, and I am happy that I am not one of those crazy people.
Have a great week everyone!

glad I'm not the only one who ends up with stinky clothes in the wash that have to be washed again!
I was also NOT happy when we brought Yoda to the farm (Gerald's uncle and aunt have him)
I think we were seperated at birth. I walk around my house all day long fixing stuff out of place. I am one of those crazy people...unlike you.
LOVED it! I can so relate...
Concur, I relate to you!
My laundry is NOT always behind either.
I was just blog hopping and thought I'd check out YOUR "Not Me Monday". I frequently leave the laundry in the washer for too long and have to re-run again due to smelly clothes. Ticks me off every time, too! =0)
I have FOUR kiddos, so I feel your pain!!! Take care!
I am so NOT guilty of the laundry thing. I do NOT have 3 loads sitting waiting on me to wash them. Hehe.
About the dog! Oh my goodness! I am so glad to meet you. I did the same thing to my husband. Except that it was my husband's dog and we as a family had had the dog since he was 6 weeks old. When we found him a new home (last July) he was 7. I couldn't stand him following me around and pacing, always pacing! I feel bad for my husband. But do to our new lifestyle (that's what I'm glad to blame it on although I had been trying to get rid of the dog for a long time!) we can't have any pets. :)
Love your blog! Great Not Me's!
i never have to rewash clothes nor do i straighten out pillows on the sofa or forbid my kids to get on my bed because it will mess it up. i always let them use it as a trampoline :)
