Not Me Monday #22

Each week seems to get busier and busier, especially with summer knocking on our doors! I guess that's good so I don't get bored and that I have something to write about! I know everyone that's reading these posts has equally crazy and exciting weeks. With that said, please feel free to leave a comment with something that you "did not" do last week. It can be funny, sad, happy, embarassing - you name it. We're all friends and family here so we're in this together. Or, if you have your own blog, I encourage you to start your own "Not Me Monday" page! Here is what "did not" happen with John and me lastweek. Enjoy!

John did not get his two impacted wisdom teeth removed last Tuesday. This was not the first time he was ever put under. He was not nervous about it.

John did not still go to his softball game on Tuesday night despite the morning's procedure. Thanks, Kristin, for picking him up! Don't worry - he didn't play, just sat on the bench and did the books!

John and I did not chicken out of telling the rest of the All Saints bell choir that we were quitting after this year, even at our Old Chicago outing after rehearsal on Thursday. I guess they'll have to find out when the next season starts. So, last Thursday was not our last rehearsal and yesterday was not our last performance with the bell choir. I'm sure we're not done playing completely, just not committed to an entire season. If we sub that's one thing, having the full year committment is another thing. Who knows, once we join our next church we might join that bell choir. The bonus there would be the super short drive.

I did not grab 20 (free) Hershey calendars from work. Another YAC freebie. Anybody in a baking mood? There are some coupons and recipes for lots of nummy treats.

I did not discover that the external hard drive we purchased less than a year ago specifically to store all of our digital photos is no longer working. I actually feel pretty calm about this. Hopefully it's a good sign that the files will be able to be retrieved. If not, I guess I start all over. Luckily I still have my wedding dress... Just kidding! I backed all of those pictures up last week!

I did not spend over an hour at Schmitt Music on Sunday picking out new piano music for my students.

I did not walk almost 10 miles between Wednesday and Sunday doing road ditch cleanup on my Dad's roads. It actually didn't seem like that much until the last couple miles. John came and rode along in the Explorer while my Dad drove but Sunday he had to work. My mom and I did all of the walking...go figure! It was a pretty good time overall. Things we did not find on our outings: A single Uno card, a can for every brand of beer and beverage on the market, a carry-out bag for every fast food chain in MN, a bent shephard's hook, part of a car speaker, old fruit-of-the-loom briefs and T-shirt, milk jug, and a used woman's femine product (ewww, that was on my side of the road).

I did not go to work feeling super relaxed this morning thanks to my 9:30 start time. Thank you summer hours. I think I can get used to this schedule.

At the music studio tonight, Leslie did not tell me that the studio would probably be moving locations again. The new location would be close to the SA in downtown Chaska, right off of the old 212. It would be a little further drive from our house but we would have sound proofed studios. Hmmm, maybe this will make me want to teach a full year next year! We'll see. I can't believe I'll be starting my 6th year of teaching lessons at the CSM in June.

I did not just discover that I now have over 12 marigolds in the flower pot. I planted the entire packet and yesterday we only had 4. Hopefully tomorrow some more poke through!

I am not finishing up this post after my long day's work sitting on our patio in what's left of the gorgeous sunshine while drinking a cold one. Have a good week everyone!
