I am pretty much a slob at home but I did think of a few .
I can not stand to eat microwave popcorn out of the bag ,it must be in a bowl. I loathe the sound of someone rattling a potato chip bag ,I want them to put the chips in a bowl. I almost get in a panic if I forget to take a rock of the day to work with me . And for the poll ,I eat my corn on the cob around and I occasionally have done the two or three rows at a time thing someone else mentioned . Oh, And I freak out about germs in public areas such as cart handles and restrooms . I always use the first stall too because I read a study that the first stalls are the cleanest because less people use them. I can never take the first item on the shelf at the store I have to take the second or third etc. If it is the last one on the shelf I wont buy it . I will only wear "perfume" that I make and only use homemade soap in the shower . I have to sleep with a mask. These are all I can think of for now :) |
Rock of the day??? What is that? I'm also curious about your homemade perfume, raedar63.

I also search the back of the shelf, for the freshest date. The stock clerks probably hate me. :p |

Are you my DD? I swear... that kid makes more lists in a day than I've ever made in my whole life! Maybe that's why she's a lawyer in SoCal & I'm a doggie mom in WI!
I'm not a lawyer, I'm a teacher. Even before then (23 years ago) I was an inveterate list maker. It is such satisfaction to cross things off. However I have become much more mellow. If things are leftover to do on the list at the end of the day, I just look at how much I did do. I also think, "Oh well...another day." |
For the poll, I eat my corn across the cob in rows. I always try to keep them even. Toilet paper goes rolls from the top, but that's not me that's DH. Just easier to keep up with it than listen to him complain. I always say Hiccup after I hiccup. Didn't notice it till someone pointed it out to me, but my sister does it too so I claim normality with that one. :D The biggest quirk I have drives my DH crazy. I tend to give objects feelings... ie if I grab a book at the store and the cover is bent, I put it back for a different one, then I feel bad because the first one got it's hopes up. :o No joke. I blame that one on my Mom though, she's been doing that since I was little.

Don't think I'm your DD! Although I did have a very dear friend whose last name was Burch!

LOL!) & put so many things on them that I could never get them all done so I get frustrated & disappointed when, at the end of the day, there are still 4586 things not checked off. |

OK... time to really 'fess up... how many of you "talk" for your dog? Y'know what I mean? DH comes home from work & Leo (via my voice) says "Hi, Dad! How was work today?". Admitting to this will get me put in a rubber room, won't it? |
I did think of another as I was doing laundry today. I can't stand to wash my cloths with my husbands !
And burchquilts I talk for my dogs all the time :) |
mrs theo, I laughed out loud when I read yours.
