not me at all.

monday. ALREADY. so as always. it's not me monday. hosted by mckmama. here are the things i didn't do. and when you're done reading them check out all the other people's things they did not do either...it's always good fun...

...it is not me who has decided to 'pre' write my not me mondays. so that way when i get up and there is well over 150 entries all i have to do is enter mine instead of typing it quick.

...it was not me who started cloth diapering all THREE of my kids (still in diapers) this weekend. that's crazy. no actually it's not. and it's going quite well. and i love the money it'll save me.

...it was not me looking all over for my phone the other day. i heard it tell me i had a text message. i got up. looked in the kitchen. the dining room. the living room. and all three places again. only to realize it was IN MY POCKET of my sweatshirt...that i WAS WEARING geesh.

...i was not totally bummed because shaun ended up going back into work yesterday for over four hours. i did not miss him and spending time with him. i can not wait til next weekend when he has off again...

...it is not me telling you to go check out stephanie's giveaway here. in celebration of her 100th post. because i want to win the yummy smelling candle and super cute purse. i have not been super blessed getting to know her through this blogging world. and every time i go shopping in appleton i do not keep an eye out for her...that'd be creepy...

...so there you have it. my things that i never ever once did. hope you enjoyed them. and i seriously need to start doing these ahead of time!! but i'm a huge procrastinator and well...it probably won't happen anyways...

i forgot to tell you all yesterday, that we're going to the third day concert in march. i'm excited. even though it caused a mini-attitude on my part. let me explain. shaun and i never really discussed if we were going to the concert or not. the tickets are 60 bucks, so not TOO bad for the concert. we talked about going, and we also talked about not going. there wasn't ever a decision made clear. so at church yesterday his mom asked him if we were going. he says no. i said. oh i didn't know we talked about that. i got irritated. i'll admit it. so i just let it go and went upstairs to change the diapers and to clear my head. i was still irritated after church. BUT something happened that rarely happens RIGHT AWAY...we talked about it.

i explained to shaun that i didn't know we had decided not to go. he said he thought we weren't going. yada yada yada. i said sixty bucks wasn't too bad for the tickets and we could do that as our 'valentine's day' gift to each other. he said..oh. well i've never been to a concert...i guess i think of the money right away. i said well...i'd love to go..BUT i don't want you to say yes because i got mad. if it's no. it's no. but i wish i would've known your answer before hand so i could've been on the same page. he apologized. and so did i. i also said it'd be nice to go with people from church without having the kids too. sometimes i feel that we don't get to connect as well with them because we have the kids to take care of. shaun said...yeah that's true. so in the end we're going. and i know that me gettting mad wasn't a factor. so i'm happy about that. i think shaun saying no would've been FINE. i would've been bummed about missing the concert...but that's not a huge deal. he does say no to me. and should. HE is the HEAD of the house. it's his JOB to tell me no sometimes.

but i'm so grateful that we worked through our problems right then and there. that rarely happens. so praise god for that!!

last night was week three of our 'fireproofing your marriage' kit. it was fun. it talked about the marriage covenant. our 'challenge' this week is to work on raising the 'rank' of our marriage vows that we had to rank. we actually both ranked ours very highly and decided that we both could work on SHOWING each other the love and cherish vows. i think we each take for granted sometimes that we love each other...we just need to SHOW it. :0) our devotional before bedtime was a doozy as well. it was about being 'right'. i'll admit. i'm the one who always usually has to be right. i learned from the devo though. and it's challenge is to try being wrong. lol. i can be wrong too...it's just when i KNOW i'm right and someone doesn't believe me that i have issues...

we have been praying together and doing our devotionals so much better lately. i'll admit for awhile it was far and few between...and that's how our relationship felt. i have noticed in the past few weeks that things are much better on that aspect. i don't think circumstances have changed..but our heart attitudes have...and that's only because god is where he SHOULD be. so yay for that.

well i'm off for the day. mom's group is today. then i don't know what. so we'll see...have a happy monday!! :0)
