Not Me Monday

It's time for "Not Me Monday" again. Click on the button above to see who else is playing along.

I did not spend all week thinking of things that I could use for “not me Monday’s” only to forget the majority of them.

I did not sit at Blue Goose with Bob and Terry and text/e-mail them from my new phone instead of talking to them. And they did not text/e-mail me back. I would never do that since that is one of my biggest pet peeves.

I did not spending a good part of my week reading MckMama’s blog from the beginning. Nope, I’m not that big of a dork. OK so I am.

I did not spend the weekend rearranging furniture barefoot. And I did not drop the dresser, the very heavy dresser with a big TV on it, on my foot. My muscles are not sore from all the solo rearranging.

James Wood - 30 Year Celebration

This past weekend Bob and I headed up to Decatur to the 30 year celebration of James Wood. To be in the car business for that many years is pretty amazing.

The first time I met James is when Bob and I were in Decatur visiting with CW and Amanda. They took us by his ranch to show us around. CW let James know we were going to take a drive on his property and he insisted we come in for a minute and then he gave us a tour of his barn and horses. What impressed me the most about James was his love for the Lord and his love for his family.

There were three things that really stuck out to me this past weekend. On the screen it listed about twenty people who have worked for James for 25+ years. I just think that speaks for the way he treats his employees. The second thing I noticed was people from the cleaning crew all the way up to management sweeping the floor. That just spoke volumes to me. Last, but not least, I noticed the people of James Wood. The whole crew is just great. They are they friendliest bunch and they know how to have fun.

Thank you James for letting us celebrate your big day with us!

I have no idea what kind of flowers these are but I thought they were pretty.

Not Me Monday

MckMama is hosting "not me!" Mondays. Basically it is all of the stuff that you "did not" do but really did.

I did not wear the nastiest smelling sweatshirt to church on Saturday and then spend the entire service wondering if the girl next to me was repulsed by the smell. And I certainly did not fret over the sweatshirt so much that I did not pay attention to the service. Then I did not tell myself it was ok to be distracted because I can watch the service online during the week. No, no not I.

I did not push Bob out of the way at church just so I could go and take some pictures of the kids being baptized.

I did not take 657 pictures in one day. While not taking those pictures I did not step in a mound of fire ants that caused me to send my shoe flying into the air while I killed the ants on my foot. Then I did not continuously throw my shoe up against a pole to get the remaining ants off. All this was not done in front of Bob's boss. I would never embarrass the boy like that! (I'm not sure if Felipe saw me or not and I don't want to ask.)

I did not avoid not one but three police officers and take a very scenic route home just because the registration and safety inspection stickers were expired. (I had the registration sticker but did not want to put in the windshield until I got the two other registration stickers off.)

I did not let Bob think he was eating ground beef instead of buffalo meat especially since I know that he only likes "regular" meat.

I did not drop a container full of nuts all over my office floor.

Guess Who?

Guess who's not a happy camper? I just can't stop laughing at this picture. Poor little man just wanted to do his own thing. Bob and I just love this family. Awesome parents = awesome kids!


Guess who's happy now? (Here he is after eating a chocolate chip cookie.)
