I did NOT...

Thank you for all the kind words after last night's post. As I said, it's been quite a week and I have quietly muttered under my breath at least hundred times "I did NOT" just say that, see that, think that or do that.
Do any of you have a LeapFrog Word Whammer? The toy that lets you put 3 letters in and then it pronounces the word for you? This week, at work, I did NOT sit and giggle with my friend/mom of a speech kid as we tried to figure out if this toy would pronounce naughty words! NO, I DID NOT do this!!! We did NOT discover that there must be a chip installed that does not allow the frog to say naughty words! I'm serious!!! He won't say them!
I am NOT going to shriek if I hear the phrase "in this bad economy" one more time. I am NOT tired of everyone in the media trying to make their point by using that phrase.
I did NOT complain about how far away I had to park and walk to get to the gym tonight. The GYM for Pete's Sake! Ok, it wasn't me getting the workout, it was Emily taking swim lessons but geesh, do you SEE the irony in that???
I did NOT get my house cleaned and my car detailed today by someone other than myself. I am NOT spoiled rotten, no, not me.
And here's something I would never do- I did NOT walk up to my friend Kellie H today at a meeting and say "Hi, I'm Michele". She did NOT look at me like I was crazy. I did NOT put my hands on her face and say "Kellie, is that you?" I'm sure she did NOT want to backhand me.
And finally, I did NOT leave the Word Whammer totally speechless this week when I realized I forgot to turn in a very big kindergarten project. The Word Whammer was NOT unable to pronounce all the words that left my mouth.

What did YOU not do this week?

The kids have the alphabet catapillar, and he won't cuss either! He won't finish the word- he just giggles and says something like 'uh, oh!' What does it mean when we try to get our kids' toys to say naughty things!?

This is like jeopardy when you have to put your answers in a different form- I HAVE NOT tried the same thing with my kids toys!

I did NOT turn down a day job because I like nights better, even though it can be tough. I also did NOT let my kids cook supper for me last night because I was Not tired.
And I have one for you, I do Not need a toy that teaches my kids bad words, because I do NOT use that kind of language myself.
Bet you did NOT know that I could teach to.

Too funny!!! I was NOT called an "a-hole" by my child last night which was followed with a raised fist. NOT me! Not my child! I was NOT thinking what did I do to deserve this life and how the heck did I get here. My husband did NOT say "maybe your punishment is a little harsh".

I forgive you Michele! At least it was for a good reason why you didn't recognize me!KH

I did NOT tell my kid "Can't you just take an Immodium and go on to school?" when she said "Mommy, I have bad diarrhea" at 6a.m. Thursday morning. No, I didn't do that. I know, BAD MOTHER.
