On Friday I packed up the car, buckled my boys in, and was all geared up to head out on our journey to my parents. I turned the key - and nothing. So I called two girl friends for support. I figured between the three of us we could figure out how to jump it. It didn't take me 5 minutes to figure out how to pop the hood on my car. Nope, not me.
I don't buckle my boys in the car and not let them out for 6 hours...on our way to Grandmas! Nope, Not Me! That would be mean and cruel. (Actually, they are totally content and I am so blessed to have boys that travel so well.)
When I visit my parents - I don't take advantage of my mom. When the boys wake I don't shoo them out to her and lay in bed longer and sleep or read or putter around on my computer. Nope, not me.
My husband went out and purchased a new washer and dryer for us yesterday. We had shopped around awhile back and were just waiting to take advantage of the state rebate program thingy. While I am at my parents he went and took care of it. So when I return I will have a quiet, beautiful partner in my daily laundry escapades. We are supposed to head home on Tuesday or Wednesday - but I am tempted to head home today, just so I can do the first load....Nope, not me, laundry wouldn't tempt me.
To witness more mom's sharing their "NOT ME" journeys in life...venture over to MckMama's blog.

Now that will be a beautiful thing to return to! How exciting!
What a cute post! Enjoy your visit with your parents! :)
no leaving gramma's house early!!!!!!! RR
Your kids rock for traveling like that! My Roo is a good traveler - we've only ever went 3 hours though. I have a friend whose son won't go farther than 1/2 hour without taking a break.
My boys are pretty good travelers when they have their dvd player, nintendo or mp3 players! Ha! Yay for the new washer & dryer! I'm jealous!
I am in love with my washer and dryer. And I am okay with it.
I LOVE staying at my mom's! "Mommy I want this..." "GO TELL YOUR GRANDMA!"
Yea!!! for a new washer & dryer. We got new ones when we moved last year and I heart them. It's sad how much I love my washer and dryer. If only things could come out folded...
