Pathetic??? NOT ME!!!

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. For now, read on to find out about my day!:)

Well, let me just tell you, I am not pathetic. Nope. It is not me who is sitting at Panera Bread where there is free WiFi access because I wanted so badly to post my "Not Me!" Monday blog. No, it is not me who had a friggin’ cable fall into my front yard from the wind last night –thus leaving me no internet service. I am not so completely addicted to Blogspot or Facebook that I had to go find somewhere that had service so that I could feed said addiction. THAT would be pathetic! Besides, I have way too many more important things to be doing at this moment – like taking care of the mountainous pile of dishes that are not sitting in my sink. (And by the way, it is not hotter than Satan’s armpits in here at the moment, either!)

And let me just tell you that I slept soooo late this morning because I totally turned on my television like I ALWAYS do and heard that school was closed today. No, it was not me who got up at the butt-crack of dawn to get my kids ready for school so they could catch the bus. Nope! My step-son did not have to call and tell me the news so that I didn’t send my kids out in the freezing drizzle to stand and wait for that yellow submarine to pull up at the end of our road. Sheesh! Some people should learn to cut the tv on every morning so that they can be up to date on important things such as this. Glad I do! Glad London did not get woken up during all that ruckus that wasn’t going on this morning and I didn’t have to feed her at 7:00am after only sleeping 4.5 hours. Whew! What a relief!

Furthermore, I’m also glad that I do not have a piece-of-crap vacuum cleaner, so that when I’m off work, I can get some housekeeping done! I’m glad that I did not have to spend an entire HOUR trying to get the crumbs and other vial substances up off the floors of my house because the sucker on my vacuum decided to stop doing its job. And I’m glad I did not have to go dig the old one out of the heaping mound of junk, I mean, buried treasure that is not living in my garage, waiting for the day I finally decide to make good on my promise to my husband about the garage sale I intend to have. I’m glad I did not have to worry about that one breaking down either. Thank goodness I did not have to deal with that on top of FIVE kids running around on the aforementioned filthy floors.
And finally, I’m so thankful that my husband does not have a chronic illness that keeps him from feeling good all day long. I did not curse this situation under my breath as I pushed the wonderful, fully-functioning vacuum throughout the house. He truly is a wonderful and extremely helpful partner and it really does not stink that this illness has hit him so hard. I do not wish I could stay at home with him all the time. And so, I am not secretly hoping the power is still out around Catoosa County so that I can have another day off tomorrow with him. NOT Me!!!

Well, I guess I should get back to the house so that I can fold that one more load of laundry and put all those icky dishes in the dishwasher. Yeah right! NOT!!!!
