I Would Never. . .

Oh, Heavens. That is pretty much all I have to say. I don't know if anyone else does this, but as I have gone through my life, I have created in my mind a list of things that I felt were disgraceful, improper, and disrespectful. I placed these items in a little filing cabinet in my head that I liked to call "Things I Would Never Do, Ever, Ever, EVER". Well, God seems to have thought that little collection of ideas was rather funny. He has a sense of humor- let me tell you! In the past week or so, I have been put into situations where I have violated almost every single one of those items. I fail.

1. I will never get caught picking my nose in my car by someone I know.
2. I will never take my child out in public before noon in their pajamas.
3. I will never let my daughter play with my phone/camera/ipod/ other expensive elctrical device just to keep her quiet.
4. I will never lie about my weight.
5. I will never let my daughter out in public with 2 different shoes, both made for the left foot.
6. I will never cry about something to a friend that I have not already expressed to my husband.
7. I will never let my kids watch the same movie over and over and over just so I can get some work done.
8. I will never use my child's napping time to simply sit and watch America's Next Top Model episodes on You Tube.
9. I will never chat on facebook when I have a kitchen to clean.
10. I will never leave an . . . 'accident' on the floor without cleaning it up while I take a drive and get nasty fast-food.
11. I will never greet my husband's homecoming with anything but a kiss.
12. I will never allow a chance for my children to catch my husband and I . . . (so awkward!)
13. I will never use my husband's deodorant all week in lieu of fetching my own out of the car.
14. I will never like the scent of my husband's deodorant enough to continue using it all week long.
15. I will never use my eye liner all the way to the point where it is such a small nub that I can't work it in the sharpener.
16. I will never serve piza and chicken nuggets to my children 2 meals in a row. (I refuse to tell you how many times I have broken this one this week.)
17. I will never let my child sleep all night in the car-seat.

Ther are more- but you get the idea. This has been a rough week with Ross going to work early every morning and coming home late every night. Add to this the fact that I am sick, Sara is teething, and Emma is 3, and you can start to get the picture! :) Don't get me wrong- things are good. I am happy, the girls are adorable, and Ross has been successful. I just think that had I not violated all of those "I Would Never's", I probably would not be nearly as cheerful as I am. And I am cheerful! :)
