What doesn’t Work for me Wednesday

This is usually called “Works for me Wednesday” but this time it’s what DOESN’T work for you, which is another clever idea.

Here is what doesn’t work for us:

*Hovering over my kids during activities or games.  It always backfires.  So instead, I let them do the crafts or play any game however they want; with the rules of course.  It happens with my 3 year old, especially.  She has two older siblings and she wants to be independent like them.  She hates when I help her so I just leave her alone.  It keeps me sane and relaxed and at the same time they’re having fun.  So even though I love to “hover” over my kids so that I can help them, I rather just read a book on the side while they play.

*In reference to this post, I now understand that Slow Cookers are not for everyone.  I made some beef stew with carrots and potatoes a few days after I bought the Slow Cooker when I realized that cooking in those things are not meant for everyone, especially for me.  I rather cook a meal in my grill outside.  It has a side burner and I know when the food is done unlike the Slow Cooker where I have no idea what temperature it is and how long to cook the food.  I think it’s too much work.  If it works for you, than more power to you because it doesn’t work for me.

*I know #20 stated they disliked the self-checkout and I want the world to know that I hate them too.  They just don’t work for me.  There is always a problem with the scanning and if I have the items laying on the conveyor belt too long, it beeps and the items comes back to me so that I could scan it again..  I don’t like to go grocery shopping so to re-scan items constantly does NOT work for me.  I love the cashiers; they’re quicker and faster than me.
