After my first "Not Me!" Monday, I did not miss two in a row while I was helping my sister move. I am much more dedicated to my blog than that!! And despite my clear dedication to my blog, I did not
And after spending two weeks with my family, I was definitely not totally relieved to have peace and quiet when we got home, and to sit and relax, just me and my hubby. I actually do love my family [for real I do] and they would never start to drive me
Being the good Catholic that I am, I gave up chocolate for Lent and I am not desperate for just a tiny little piece of dark chocolate.
And I absolutely would not have to hide the two boxes of Girl Scout cookies (with chocolate on them) that I bought, in the back of the freezer where they're hard to get at. I have much more will power than that and can totally resist temptation without doing such a silly thing!
(I had to take 3 or 4 things out of the freezer
to take this picture. That's how far back
I haven't hidden them!)
And if I did do such a thing, part of my reasoning would not be so that my hubby doesn't find out that I bought them and eat them all before Easter!to take this picture. That's how far back
I haven't hidden them!)
In addition, I most definitely have not been a complete lazy bum this past week. And knowing everything I do about nutrition, there's no way that I would skip breakfast every single day this past week and not eat a single thing until after noon because of the aforementioned laziness. I also didn't split my favorite photos from Washington D.C. into 5 different posts (family, flags, monuments, memorials & buildings, Arlington Cemetery and details) and post them all on Monday so I wouldn't have to post all week!
Finally, I certainly wouldn't justify buying a cute new pair of black, peep-toe heels at just the possibility of a job interview this week!
Nope, not me!!
Phewww...I feel better now! Can you be brutally honest and live to tell about it too?

i spy with my little eye a certain ice pack in your freezer that reminds me a life i'm glad to have left behind.
miss you tons - good luck with lent :) tell me about the potential interview!
*hahahaha* I'm glad I left that life behind too! But I'll tell ya, that ice pack was used many times during all the moving the last 2 weeks!!
Awesome NMM!!!!
Those are cute shoes you did not buy!
Girl Scout cookies were made by the devil himself. I find it interesting that the cookies come just in time for Lent. :)
I would hide the cookies too. The caramel delights are my favorite. Do you remember when they were called Samoas?? Oh and I love your shoes! Have a great week fellow New Englander!
I gave up lifesavers for Lent! I an so NOT addicted to them that while in the grocery store the other day I seriously did not grab a bag and smell them totally humiliating my 12 year old daughter in the process! Good luck!
Frozen thin mints..... very hard to give up!
Your Not Me's made me laugh. I love the shoes you didn't buy!

Does feel good, doesn't it? To be brutally honest that is! Surviving 2 weeks of family? That is amazing!
have a great week!
Hi Sara! Thanks for visiting the blog! I think all of these "Not Me Mondays" are just a HOOT! I'll be checking back in...I LOVE your pictures. Fabulous!
I don't have any frozen thin mints hidden away, either! Not for a Lenten promise, but to keep them from my many men! ;)
Willpower is something I do not have. I would remember about those cookies in a couple of days and... well, I won't elaborate! Great list! Thanks for stopping by, even if it was just my "clever" name!

Hey! I don't have Thin Mints in my freezer, either! But, I don't have THREE boxes!
Love, love, LOVE the shoes! What size are they? :)
It's a funny story about the size actually...
I have BIG feet and usually I wear a 9 1/2 or 10! The biggest size they had in the store was only an 8 1/2 and I REALLY liked these shoes, so I tried them on anyway. And, surprisingly, they fit like a glove!
I knew then that it was just meant to be ;)
I totally understand the chocolate thing. I gave chocolate up at New Years, and it's been so hard! Lots of Somoas sitting in my freezer too!
