My Quirky things...

Okay, so here goes! I have been "tagged" by my sister in law Tracy to confess 6 things about myself that are quirky. I'm probably more quirky than most, so this SHOULD be easy, we'll see!

1. Whenever I eat french fries, I have them 2 at a time, and they have to be similar in length and shape. I think this originated in High School because I could scoop more ketchup that way, but now everyone that I eat out with notices and they think I'm strange...

2. I can't stand ironing! I will let my "iron pile" get large before ironing so I don't have to lug out the ironing board very often. I will also never let my clothes sit in the dryer for fear that I would have to iron more, so they always come out hot, and get folded to perfection immediatly!!

3. For whatever reason, if I want to shower and "get ready" all at once in the mornings, it always takes me an entire hour. No matter what I do to try and do it in less time, it always is an hour. If I shower at night then my mornings go much more quickly.

4. I'm afraid of getting those freaky "superbugs" that are talked about all over my home if I use too many antibacterial cleaners, so I don't use antibacterial handsoap or cleaners. I use as mild of soap as I can find and figure that it will clean what needs to be cleaned. I save the antibacterial stuff for special occasions, and work.

5. I LOVE movies, but don't want Sienna to think that TV and movies are the only form of entertainment, so to balance out media that comes from other sources where Sienna is exposed to it, I try my best to limit her TV at home, and I only watch MY stuff after she's sleeping. Some who know me well may say I'm a bit neurotic about this one. I'm sure I'll ease up at somepoint, but for now it sure is cutting down on my own TV and movie watching!

6. Things have to be organized! At least my things. There have been 2 times in recent memory (probably in the last 7-8 years) where I have lost something, and I FREAK OUT! Jeff will testify on this, seriously it's a major freak out. I can't stand losing things because I feel like I keep organized enough that nothing should be lost, and I always think I know where it should have been and therefore it shouldn't have even been a possibility of losing it. (This would be where I usually blame someone else, namely Jeff, until I finally find whatever said lost thing is, and then usually discover to my dismay that it was my fault anyway.) For the most part I also keep track of where Jeff's keys are placed, because he tends to never put them in the SAME place and therefore he looses them alot, along with his cell phone, and wallet. Life goes much smoother with organization...

So that's it! I could keep going on much longer than this, but 6 is all I had to put down. Now I'm gonna pass this "tag" onto Carrie T., Carrie B., Emily, and Jan. Have fun girls!!
