May or May Not Monday

May or May-Not Monday: Where you can divulge the secrets of life's mishaps without feeling like a failure. So go on... own up. I may have...

I may or may not purchase my laundry detergent in bulk ish. I buy 4 at a time to get through the month. We are an unscented family and apparently a few months ago when I bought 7 cause they were on sale, a few citrus scented made its way into my cart. At first I was just annoyed by the smell, but after a week my skin started burning. Yes, it's awesome to be me. So now it's decision time. Give away the citrus and just eat the cost or just try to keep my stuff out. I've still yet to decide. 

I may or may not have been doing a wall sit in my bedroom when my feet slipped on the carpet and I landed on the base board. I thought well I'm getting old and expected that to actually hurt. Moments later after going about my day, my bum starts throbbing. I have the worst bruise I've ever had. It's four inches wide and 2 inches tall. Blackest of black. I don't bruise easily so I'm always annoyed that when something  truly hurts I don't have the glory of a bruise to shout Ouch! So this time when the fall doesn't hurt at all, I get the monster bruise from hell. It's going on a week now and still looks fresh and has interrupted my back sleeping self every night from the pain. And I can't even show it off. 

I may or may not have been walking down the sidewalk when I came within inches of a snake in striking position. I didn't even see it until my foot was next to it and yelled snake to warn my family behind me and did a tip toe dance trying to give less attack area all the while trying to identify if it's head was a triangle shape or not. My dad measured it out while I deep breathed to slow down my startled heart, 3 1/2 ft. No triangle head just a bull snake that didn't want to be bothered. The next time on our walk, there were bird feathers in the same spot. Too bad for the bird, yay for my foot. 

I may or may not have worked my way through two libraries children's sections and got my husband to take us to the main branch. It's children's section is huge and I think we can take it this year. I asked their policy on limits of new books ( our branch does) and the answer was 100 books. No limits on new. And no body ever gets close to that, it's too many to manage. I thanked her and thought well you haven't met me and proceeded to check 87 out. I couldn't have managed without the arms of my husband. 60 is my limit and my littles are good for nothing when it comes to carrying books. 

I may or may not have found a worm the size of my pinkie in my triple washed spinach. I was happy to find this for it was the convincer my husband needed to believe my always wash it yourself rule had merit.   

I may or may not be playing horse with my family a few nights a week with the free from our neighborhood basketball hoop with a slightly deflated soccer ball. Finally a ball that is light enough for my less than strong upper body strength. And it's light enough for the littles to play. And it's thrown my husband off his game to even the playing field. We also have a few bright yellow bags of rocks on top of the base and I'm sure we will have a complaint filed against us from the HOA. 

We may or may not have had a fraudulent charge for an air bnb reservation on our credit card. The card is canceled and I'm glad for the protection. I'm very curious where the vacation was to be for we don't have a life where vacations are done on a whim. 

I may or may not have purchased an audio book for way cheap on kindle for my littles. They loved listening to it while on our slow walks. When they finished I looked through my kindle library for another one they'd both like. After ten minutes of deliberating I picked one and then couldn't figure out why it wouldn't play. Yep. Not an audio book. So then I downloaded audible and picked the book and all was well. Though we are going to milk the 30 day trial because whoa those books are expensive! 

My little may or may not have gotten green hair from the pool. First I tried AVC. It didn't work. Next I tried a half cup of lemon juice left on for ten minutes. Bingo! It's fixed. I'm also hoping it will lighten his hair even more. We will see - it's the game of how long will my boys stay blonde?
