Not Me Monday

                        [NotMeMonday.jpg]

This past week I:

 

Didn’t accept an offer to have a friend at work be my personal trainer and then only take the stairs, as per his suggestion to get into better shape, when he was there and I knew I may run into him and take the elevators when he wasn’t.  Not me, I would always listen to such advice and follow it to a T.

 

I didn’t deny to a pulmonolgist (lung doctor) that was trying to help me that I may have asthma.  He was only trying to help me to feel better and stop coughing all the time which I have done for years.  I didn’t stand there and state that I DO NOT HAVE ASTHMA AND THAT IS ALL THERE IS TO IT to him.  Not me, I would always listen to what the doctor says and make an appointment with him just as he suggests.

 

I didn’t borrow a piece of equipment from a friend and not return it yet.  Not me, I always return things as soon as I am done with them.

 

And I didn’t get to my nap late today (work nights) so that I could get this up on my blog since I didn’t participate last week.  Not me, I always get enough sleep because I know taking care of myself is very important.

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.

This week I:

Didn’t tell my husband that I was going to stay up to watch Lost and promise him I wouldn’t fall asleep on the couch.  I promised that I would come to bed at a reasonable hour so I didn’t show up in bed at 4am and the next morning when he didn’t notice I didn’t act like all was normal….not me.  I’m a good wife.

Didn’t spend too much time on facebook.  I’m not a facebook addict….not me.

Didn’t come up with about 3 good stories to update on my nursing blog and then not add them…..not me.  I always keep my blogs going and up to date.

Didn’t turn my cleaning the closet project into an all day project instead of the several hour project it could have been…..not me.  I mean come on, the dust was getting to me and I DO have a fairly moderate dust allergy.

Didn’t stop doing my food journal on The Daily Plate cuz I got too lazy to go each meal and update it…not me.  I’m NOT a lazy person.

Didn’t pick up my son later than usual from daycare one day this week and have to take him to school instead of letting him ride the bus cuz I was tired….not me.  Not like I’m tired and iron deficient or something.

 

Until next week……Good tidings and God Bless.  Now go visit MckMama’s blog and read others’ Not Me Monday confessions.  Happy reading!!

Not me Monday

I didn’t get this up in time to make MckMama’s blog but here is my version:

I did not meet my son’s bus in my pajamas everyday this week because I was sick.  I always get dressed daily sick or not.

I did not spend all my computer time this past week on facebook instead of updating my blog.  Catching up with old friends or not, facebook is not a place I would occupy all my time.

I did not spend all morning today on facebook instead of cleaning my house or getting this up in time to make MckMama’s blog because I was feeling lazy.  I’m NOT a lazy person.

I didn’t not carve a pumpkin with my kids or not decorate the house/yard for Halloween because I was sick for a week.  Sick or not, that is something I should do with the kids and I shouldn’t blow it off until next year when they are older and will appreciate it more.

I did not tell Joe, the anesthesiologist that fixed my spinal headache, that I loved him about 6 times and blame it on the narcotics I had gotten.  It was not really because he is my favorite one and I was so happy to see him and so happy that he made me feel so much better.  It  WAS the narcotics!
