Not Me Monday: What A Week!

  • when a passing truck threw a stone on my windshield and made a ginormous chip in the glass, I immediately took time out of my carefree, nothing~to~do day to call the insurance company and arrange to have the chip repaired for free. So, because the chip was most definitely repaired in a timely manner, it definitely did NOT turn into an even more ginormous crack yesterday morning as a result of the heavy frost we received the nite before. This said crack will not cost anything to repair and my husband definitely understands that either of us is quite capable in picking up the phone and arranging to have the repair done, so I am definitely not solely to blame for what's transpired.
  • I absolutely love my bank. I do not encounter frustrations or problems almost each and every time I do business with them. Take Friday for example. I did not wait over 10 minutes in the drive thru for them to take my cash deposit that my 6 year old son had just counted out in 10 seconds. I was most definitely not the lone drive thru customer at the time. I did not have to negotiate 4 lanes of traffic to return to the bank because I always promptly check my receipt before pulling out onto the road. The teller had not given me someone else's receipt for a much smaller deposit, so I definitely did not feel the need to return to the drive thru and wait an astounding 3 MORE minutes before I was even acknowledged to confirm that my deposit had made it into the correct account. I was definitely the example of a Christian mommy when my son asked what the teller had said and I ad~libbed "I'm sorry for being so completely incompetent, I have no idea what I'm doing." Nope, I never would have said anything like that, so I definitely did not need to apologize and correct myself after I calmed down a bit.
  • my (nameless) daughter did NOT draw the correct anatomical feature on the prayer bear she was coloring yesterday in church. Apparently, this bear is a boy. But I wouldn't know that because she did not loudly inform me (outside of her junior church room/ in the hallway at church) that she "drew a wee~NUR" on her bear. And she most definitely did not repeat that she "drew a wee~NUR" 3 or 4 times because I was in deep conversation with another mom and not paying attention to her. I never, ever tune my children's chatter out.
  • upon closer inspection, I did not also notice that this bear has "boobies". Maybe some gender identity issues? They were easy to miss the first time as his arms are folded in front of him so that he's able to hold a little Bible that reads "my Bible is sweeter than honey".
  • I was absolutely not deemed "rude" by an overly "polite" customer on the phone the other day. I may or may not have told her that I could not hand deliver a money refund for non~organic avocados to her door. And if she really wanted her money, she would, in fact, have to come back to the store to get it herself. This was not after spending wasting 10 minutes of my time on the phone with her. C'mon, people, don't give me crap! Especially at work in a job that, aside from the paycheck, I could really care less about.

But today is Monday, which means I have the day "off" and I get to be a mom all day long. So I need to finish here so I can get to "work". Happy Monday, all!
