in case you were wondering…
no i did not just spray paint my thumb permanently glossy black.
No I did not inhale enough spray paint fumes to feel JUST the slightest bit….elevated.
No I am not looking for OTHER objects in my house to spray paint.
No I was not HIGHLY inspired by this beautiful blog and her special little projects to spray paint every immobile object in my house.
No I was not extremely giddy like a school girl today to have MckMama not only write me back – but REMEMBER ME from college! *insert jaw dropped open pic of me here*
No it was NOT ME who suggested that Kaylen needed some “sensory input therapy” on Friday nite when she was running around like a crazy girl bouncing off walls and screaming at the top of her lungs. It certainly would not have been my idea to get a couple ace bandages an
d wrap her up all mummy-style so that her body was a.) immobilized from creating further havoc and b.) could get the sensory input she was apparently craving by flinging herself into solid objects over and over again. (and no it is NOT ME who reads too much, mary jane.)
Nope. Not me. I would never do any of those things.

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by <a href="http://www.mycharmingkids.net">MckMama</a>. You can head over to <a href="http://www.mycharmingkids.net">her blog</a> to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.
ok as a followup to the “things that annoy me” randomness, I should bring it back to a little positivity, no? (or should i say yes..)
- Survivor. I love that it’s fall, and that my show is on, and it gives me something to look forward to.
Fall decorations. something about pumpkins, haybales, and beautiful fall wreaths makes me happy inside.
Pumpkin flavored….anything. Lattes, creamer, bread, cake, pancakes. Yes I have hit pumpkin overload and i LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT! It means fall is here. I don’t know why i am so attached to fall/pumpkin things. but they make me happy in a way i can’t put into words.
similarly – my new fall tarts make me happy. They make the house SMELL like fall-y type things. If you do not own a tart burner, go buy one now. then load up with little tarts that smell like fall-y things. you will be happy, and your happiness will multiply. yes, this is so. trust me.
- this new frosting in a can from…i do’nt know whatever the blue company is – pillsbury? It is heaven sent. Frosted a cake in like a minute and had leftover to spread over oreos/graham crackers/my finger/anything
else i felt like. it was SO GOOD! Go buy some now. Especially if you weigh anywhere under 180 lbs. Trust me, you can afford the calories. It is THAT GOOD!!!
hearing Ben laugh hysterically at The Office. Most specifically the wedding episode. When they’re dancing down the aisle and dwight kicks the bridesmaid in the face. he laughs like that at only a few things, and every single time he does, i swear it makes me laugh just to hear him. Good times.
Getting huge things crossed off my to do list. I know this is the antithesis of my last random post – things that annoy me – when i complained about not being able to complete my list. But every once in a while, I’ll get the oomph up to complete a big project, and it feels SO GOOD when i do!
And finally –
seeing this little girl finally have good enough nutrition to have enough hair to put in a ponytail! It only took 11 months! (which is
about ten and a half months more than it took for any of her sisters to have ponytails!)
There’s a lot more to this list – but I’ll have to do another post on it soon. For now I have about six more posts to catch up on!
