Not Me! Monday

I would NEVER park in front of the local library and grade papers in my car until it opened when it is 22 degrees outside.  Not me!!

I definitely do NOT consider quitting one or both of my jobs daily.  I love what I do and think the money is totally worth the time.

I NEVER run down to the freezer an hour before supper and pray that a fully prepared meal will magically appear.  When it doesn’t, I don’t randomly take out various items and hope that someone in my family will eat them.

I would NOT even consider trying to get the girls to sleep a little longer when they are obviously up for the day.  I get my children up immediately — even if I need to try to get ready for work.

Breastfeeding has NOT become one of the most restful parts of my day simply because I am able to sit and not work during that time.

I am definitely NOT so tired and sleep deprived that I’ve reached total “I don’t even care” mode.  This would NOT include not caring if the house is clean before having company over and letting emails pile up in my inbox – two things I am typically OCD about.

I did NOT teach about prepositions last week and while doing so think “you’ve got to know the rules before you can break them” about my own tendency to end a sentence with one.  See previous Not Me! above. ;)

I do NOT bust my buffers every day to be the best mom, wife, teacher, daughter, friend, and person that I can be.  I NEVER feel like this is not appreciated in the slightest.

I am NOT so tired that I am seriously considering curling up in the corner of the classroom today and taking a nap while my students take a test.

I definitely do NOT write my Not Me’s! throughout the week on my phone with the hopes of being able to copy and paste a quick post every Monday.  I am not worried that my blog is becoming as tired as I am.

    I also have started writing my Not Me's prior to Monday because I can not think of any otherwise.

    Your blog is not tired. I enjoy each post – but don't comment all that much!

    Hang in there! Put your feet up tonight and go to bed when the kids do!

    What? You mean we are NOT supposed to be sleep deprived? I don't think I've had a full night of sleep in 11 years. To me sleeping in is making it to 0545 including the weekends.

    Nothing wrong with trying to get the kiddos to sleep longer. I have stopped listening to the twins' monitor and get up around 7 or so on my own. I can still hear them if they really need me, but why I get up 15 or so minutes earlier if they are happy as can be in their cribs chit chatting about their dreams?
