"Not Me!" Monday


Oh where do the weekends go? I don't know how it is possible that it is a Monday again, but it is and here we go, hold on tight...

This weekend we certainly did not spend several hours trying to figure out which bulb was out on our pre-lit Christmas tree and still not get the tree decorated! Oh, but if this did happen at least we got the tree up, right?

I did not tell my class of first graders that there is a desk fairy and that she is the tooth fairies sister and I certainly didn't tell them that she would be checking to see who has a neat and tidy desk. No, I would never do that! Lie to first graders, that would be wrong!

Oh and about the desk fairy, I certainly haven't been eating the Starbursts that she is going to give to the very few kids who have neat desks!

I did not bug out this morning at work when I realized that almost all of my favorite Uni-ball gel pens are now missing from my desk!!

Over the weekend when I had my friend Melissa's daughter over for a few hours so that they could pack for their move on Friday I decided to make a gingerbread house with the girls and I definitely didn't cringe to myself when they were decorating it. No way, I wouldn't do that, it's all about them having fun and not how it looks.

Ahhh, that always feels so good. Now head over and check out what everyone else didn't do this week!

I found you through Not Me! Monday. Have to say that I love the desk fairy! And I can so relate on the gingerbread houses. We made one this weekend, and I so did NOT want to rearrange everything my dear hubby did!
