So today, I'd like to shake it up here on T&B... just for fits and giggles, and share a few bits about myself that typically wouldn't make it here on the ol' blog! Hey I told you it wasn't all perfect here!
10 Confessions of a Not so Perfect Mommy Blogger
{besides being the most forgetful person in the entire world}
1. I have worn the same jeans for sometimes 3 days in a row and I don't own an ironing board.
2. My kids have actually cried because "we're having McDonald's again!" Yes, we have eaten takeout for an entire week because I was so wrapped up in linking and stalking blogs that I've neglected to defrost food for dinner... I'm working on a real cooked meal at least 5 out of 7 days now!
3. I dislike- no I despise putting laundry away... most of the time it's washed and folded, then left on the bed, which gets shoved to the floor where it... sits a while!
4. I am utterly terrified of spiders and bees. I will run the other way screaming like a pampered little girl {yes, leaving the children behind to defend themselves}. Bees hate me, the old "stay still and it will leave you alone" does NOT apply to me. They will go out of there way to land and sting!
5. Last summer, I think I allowed my kids to go over a week without showering! It dawned on me that I couldn't remember the last time the kids had taken one... felt like a big arse. Hey, the pool counts, right?
6. I refuse to empty the dishwasher and will leave them for the hubby to put away, feigning surprise that I didn't know they had been run!
7. I smell things. I mean I smell everything. I won't eat til I've smelled the food both before and after cooking. I smell clean cups fresh out of the dishwasher or the cabinet. I think it's an OCD thing. I have to smell clothes before I'll put them on, even if I just washed them... Drives hubby insane. Me running around the house yelling "What's that smell?" when something strikes my sniffer the wrong way... even though no one else smells a thing!
8. I will not eat the end of a french fry. Don't know why, but, each and every fry will be eaten top down to the little nub that is held between my fingers then discarded back to the plate.
9. I want to be a Real Housewife of somewhere! Hee Hee... that series is my addiction! I am really not a vain person, but I'd love to dress up pretty everyday with my hair perfectly coiffed and have lunch with the girls, travel to exotic places... have big parties and wear a ton of bling! The horrors of not knowing whether to get Botox today or a boob lift!
10. I am not proud of this one... I have a hot headed temper and usually my family takes the brunt. I have been known to "freak the f out" a time or two... usually prompting dear little Alexis to shout back at me "You R Mean! I've had enough, you need to check yourself!" Usually she just ignores me... but She can instantly change my attitude... and I am NOT afraid to say I'm sorry! {at least to the kids, Jim, well... he doesn't usually get as many apologies, oi vay}
Feels good to get that out! Ha Ha... so what are some of your "secrets" you hide from the blog world? Feel free to share... I won't tell {wink wink}
