Not Me Monday - Forgot the Cake


Okay, so here it is - my first Not Me Monday! I thought the recap of the weekend would be fun to do this way.


It was Not Me that spent the entire weekend alone with my almost 5 year old son and watched Speed Racer and Mario Brothers while Hubby and B were on an Indian Princess camping trip. And it did Not rain the entire weekend on them.

It was Not Me that worried they would be hit by a tornado or shoot an eye out at the BB gun shooting range or catch pneumonia after falling into a cold river from a zipline. Or break some important part of their body.

It was Not Me that took my son to his Spring Carnival this weekend and he did not play one game, get his face painted or go on one ride. It was Not Me that pre-paid for all of these games, rides and face painting. So, it was Not Me that was a little aggrevated that he did not want to play.

It was Not Me that put my puppy in his crate 55 million times this weekend just to have some peace of mind that he was not chewing up something, namely my other dog.

It was Not Me that took the easy way out and held my my son's birthday party at a bounce house party place with 20 of his friends. It was Not Me that forgot to order his cake and had to improvise by buying Ben 10 action figures to put on a plain cake. And it certainly was not me that bought a too small cake for 20 kids.

It was Not Me that left the goody bags at home and had to send Hubby back to get them. And then it was Not Me that forgot to hand them out to all of the kids once they left the party. Nope, Not me.

It was Not Me that is almost finished redecorating my daughter's cute Paris Pink room this weekend and is giddy with how it is turning out. It's definitely Not Me that wants to move in there myself.

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.

Updated: When I went to link to her carnival this morning, I instead noticed her story of their baby, Stellan. Please pray for them.

I love this! I have totally done all those party things. I've forgotten to order the cake, forgotten treat bags, forgotten to even buy ice cream for the party, etc etc. I'd love to see pics of B's room when it's done. How fun!

That's a lot of not me's :)

I could totally get into a weekend like yours. Well, except for the Spring Carnival part. I'm sure the birthday party was a blast - those bounce places wear kids out.
