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. Ok....so let's get this show on the road!

As you may (or may not) know, I have been doing Weight Watchers since January. I am loving it. I have lost almost 40 lbs. I have hit my initial "goal weight" that WW set for me! So...it would NOT have been me who went through McDonald's today and got a vanilla milkshake! I would never try to sabotage myself like that!

It was not me who went shopping for black pants yesterday. Of course, after finding the black pants, I would NEVER pick out a jacket and skirt to wear for Easter Sunday. I wouldn't find three adorable shirts that I love the colors of....all 3 shirts would not be exactly matching (EXCEPT for the color) either! I wouldn't buy three shirts that are exactly the same...just in different colors!

Chasity had her first coach's pitch baseball practice on Saturday! Great day for it...BEAUTIFUL! I would not be the mom sitting in my fold out camping chair shouting "Great Job Baby Girl" everytime she did something CLOSE to right. I would not be the one who made my child run the bases BEFORE everyone else arrived just so I could get pics of her on every base! I didn't make my child stand there (once practice started) so that I could get shots of her at bat with a helmet on! I would never embarrass my child like that! (Of course it wasn't my child who was putting that wonderful NC Red Dirt in her NEW GLOVE and dumping it out....repeatedly! She wouldn't do that!)

I would not call in reinforcements to help with my homework just because I really need some stress relief. While doing that, I would not have a veteran teacher who is working with me to plan a lesson that I will teach in her class on Friday! She would not have answered most of the questions for me on my assignment... She would not have said at the end..."All you need to do it type it up"! WOW! My homework that would have taken me all week did not only take me 90 minutes today....especially since the teacher had a class at that time!

Last, but not least.... I am not currently blogging about things I did not do while I should be working on the homework that I did not ask the veteran teacher to help with. But....since I am (NOT!!!).... I'll do my homework now!

Until next time........

I don't know what happened but this jumped to your next post because I was going to comment on your doing sign language, lol. Anyhoo, my DD#1 is good at sign language too. She used to be asked to do sign, and one of her friends would play piano and the other would sing. They were quite the trio. It was beautiful to watch. I admire your talents! Congrats on your weight loss, you put me to shame. Blessings!

Emotional Easter

WARNING: This post is going to be REALLY long. Don't say you weren't warned! This is the post I have tried to convince myself not to write so that no one's feelings get hurt. However, my feelings got hurt, and so I have a right to write about it! :) Right? I'm not trying to hurt anyone with this, I'm just trying to sort things out in my brain. Writing is my best outlet for that. Anyways, I should preface this by saying that I come from a family that travels in herds/gaggles/armies/groups/whatever you call the large group of people you go out to eat with or hang out with most of the time. This weekend, we had some people come into town. We were invited Friday night to go out to eat with them at 7pm at a restaurant that is infamous for making you wait at least an hour around 7pm. There were going to be 8 adults and 5 kids.....13 total (I think!)! (That's about the normal size for the "army" we travel with here.) The other 10 people arrived around

Saving Money

Tony and I have always WANTED to save money. However, when we got married, we didn't start right away. Then two years later, Chasity was born. Then it was almost IMPOSSIBLE! Now, we've been married for 9 years, and we have VERY LITTLE actually saved. It seems like every time we get a little saved, something has to be fixed.... usually the car! lol It does need work now, but we're waiting.... but I don't think we can wait long. We know that when I actually get a teaching job, we'll be able to save about 1/3 (maybe more) of my paycheck every month....since we've been living for almost 4 years on just Tony's check anyways. However, I have decided that I want to start saving now! So.... here's my plan. It's really really hard....just kidding! The only thing I need to know is this.....Does Wal-Mart still match prices? If not, my plan is doomed! If so, I'm good to go! I have gone through all the sales papers for this week. I have circled thi

I Keep Losing Days

Last Friday, Tony and I checked the Princess out of school early. We had the car loaded up, and we headed to Pigeon Forge. The Relentless Youth Group from Remedy Church left earlier that morning for Shabbach Youth Conference 2017. We didn't want her to miss an entire day of school, so we checked her out after 1/2 day. That means that Tony was off work on Friday. We drove up on Friday. We dropped the Princess off with the group just in time for church services on Friday night. We hung out with the group at the Alpine Coaster , where Tony's cart got stuck on the track in the pouring rain! (That's a completely different story!)   We also went to ride go karts and play at the arcade! Sunday, after the morning services, we collected the Princess from the group. We hung around and did some things together as a family. Then we headed home. Tony had some vacation days to use, so he also took Monday off of work. We went grocery shopping (which we normally do on Sunda
