Not Me Monday

It's sorta Monday again!  Can you believe another week has sped by?  I am NOT one week closer to SUMMER VACATION... 29 days but who is counting??  Definitely NOT me... 273 hours...

Not Me! Monday is a blog carnival by MckMamma at MyCharmingKids.net.  She probably won't have Mr. Linky up because she is in Boston with a very sick baby.  He is scheduled to have major heart surgery on Tuesday, so PLEASE pray for everyone involved!!

Well, let's get started...  I am NOT posting on Sunday night.  I do NOT usually do my not me's on Monday morning, but I will NOT be in a training all day Monday.  I have NOT spent the what feels like the better part of April in meetings, professional developments, and the like.  I do NOT hate meetings.

I am NOT horrified that I missed the blog Spring Fling over at Domestically Challenged this weekend.  It was such a great idea and I did NOT forget to email my post to Sara.  On Friday, I was NOT braindead because of a literacy coach meeting.  I did NOT spend the day with people complaining about things that are out of our control.  This does NOT suck the life out of me.  I also did NOT spend the three hours being "trained" on technology I understand.  I did NOT feel this was a colossial waste of my time and this did NOT make me grumpy.   Then when I realized I missed the Spring Fling, I did NOT feel like crying.

I am NOT in tick warfare mode.  I did NOT have this big tick destruction plan for Saturday.  I did NOT send Mark out to cut the grass while I was NOT going to vacuum every nook and cranny of my h0use.  After two minutes of vacuuming, I did NOT suck up a dust ruffle and break my vacuum.  I am NOT going to be without a good vacuum for about two weeks!!  I do NOT love having vacuumed carpet.  Seriously, I love to vacuum...  I am by no stretch of the imagination a neat freak, but dirty floors kill me.  I am NOT hurting...  

You will be happy to know that I did NOT spray the yard, the trees in the "forest" next door, bathe the dog, and use super-duper tick be gone drops.  I will NOT win the war against ticks.  Oh, and I did NOT have one on my stomach Friday night!!  Eeewww... that would be gross.  I am NOT relieved to know that ticks in Florida are not disease carriers.

I did NOT leave my child's backpack in the parking lot at his school.  Actually, that's true I did NOT, I should say, Ryan did NOT leave his backpack...  So I did NOT send him to preschool with a Vera Bradley backpack.  That would be girlie...  

And finally, we did NOT spend the afternoon at the beach without sunscreen.  We did NOT manage to not have any sunburn!!  I guess we did NOT get there late enough...  My children are NOT acting like heathens because they are tired and I'm NOT too busy playing - I mean- blogging on the computer.

Ok, so they don't look like heathens... but trust me, they are acting like them!
Oh!  I almost forgot...  There is NOT five days until the marathon.  I am NOT scared to death.  I did NOT spend Saturday visualizing where I would be in the race and imaging the pain I will be in.  Is it cheating to pop Advil during the run?  Yeah, I do NOT think so either.  But you will NOT find it in my fanny pack...

Oh no, poor vacuum! I think I would find a loaner! I am a freak about the floors too! Another reason we do not have a pet...no tick wars! Poor thing (you and him...or her, now I can't remember!) Sorry about all your training--very unfun! I am so excited about your marathon! I can't wait to get all the gory details (because if I know you at all, my sides will be splitting from the laughter!!!!!)

So, that can't hold ME down.
I am thinking of doing another spring fling in may. Maybe a Memorial Day flinger-o. You can do that one! Twice!
I cannot wait to hear about your marathon!!!
