Not Me Monday

These things would never happen... not to us

I was not woken up this morning at 5:30 by someone with his barky pants on. This is not the only day this week that I could have slept until 6:45.

I did not watch as my husband stood in the living room and stretched the cord of the towel dryer to see if it reached above his head and was really 7 feet long.

Mr. Barky pants is not sleeping on my lap as I write this. It seems like 5:30 was early for him too.

I am also not praying for a "snow day" this week. Nope not me!

Round 2

Sunday we drove to Avon Lake. (We didn't make the two hour journey in less than 90 min. No not us. My dear husband never drives over the speed limit)

It was super festive up there with the 4 trees they had decorated!

The traditional holiday shot of the "kids" (Who are all over 21 at this point).

Monday we (and by "we" I mean Richie) iced all of the cookies we made almost 2 weeks ago. They turned out really nice. I got to put the sprinkles on which was perfect for me. Nothing too technical for me in the kitchen.

And Bevo watched and waited for us to drop things on the floor. Of course no one gave him any cookies. He never gets people food and we would never even think of giving him a taste. Nope, not us!

And one more "not-me" ... even though it's Tuesday...

There was no way that I would have been left alone in the aisle at Walmart this week by my dear husband who did not disappear the second we ran into a co-worker who we would never think of referring to with the word "crazy" before their name. We would never abandon eachother like that!

Who???

eats a kiss cookie and leaves the kiss?!?!?!

Richie that's who! I think the kiss is the best part of the cookie :o)

A few not-me's since it's Monday...

I really didn't walk around at work for almost 20 min. holding a piece of paper in front of myself because I forgot to zip my pants and didn't notice until there were kids in the room.

That wasn't me either who spilled their coffee on the new footstool only to find out that fabric protector is AMAZING!! (I also didn't say that I wished everything could be dipped in fabric protector... life would be so much less messy!)

Nor did I ask Richie for some stupid things that I "didn't" do this week and he didn't answer with: You did so much dumb stuff I can't remember it all.

Ha!

Light Show

I should have taken one like this on Saturday night when there was a pretty blanket of snow... but this will have to do for now. There isn't a lot of room to stand out front without being in the road so I couldn't get much more in the frame. Looks pretty cozy to me!

p.s: Don't mind the power cord hanging between the window and the porch. It will be gone next year after some boys run the wires for an outdoor outlet :o)

And a few not me's!

I definitely did not put only half of butter needed in the cookie dough and then wonder why it was so dry.

I also didn't wash one white sock with our bedsheets, which happen to be red.

Nor did I spend all of Sunday in my pajamas only to take a shower at 5:00, change into another pair of pajamas and put running pants on over top my pajamas to take back the movie we rented and get donuts at 7:00 at night.
