6 quirks

This has taken a lot of time for me to think of what my quirks are. Not to imply that I am not a quirky person it's probably just identifying them and then keeping it to 6. Here goes:

1. I hate dry hands/skin, but especially dry hands. I have gotten much better in recent years being here in Utah, but still I'm a freak about it. I carry lotion at all times. There have been times that I wouldn't even go to the bathroom because then I would have to wash my hands and then I didin't have lotion and then I wouldn't be able to handle it. One time in College my roommate wouldn't come out of the bathroom and I needed to get to school and my chapstick was in the bathroom so I...put deodorant on my lips. GROSS!! Needless to say my lips not only became more dry but repelled any moisture for weeks. I told you I was quirky.

2. I am a very social person and love to get out and socialize with people, do new things etc. BUT, quite often right before the event whatever it is I suddenly don't want to go. I always say to Rand "I'm just not in the mood, or I just don't know if I'm up for it". Then I always end up going and of course have a fabulous time and am really glad I went.

3. I love to throw things away/give things away. My kids start to cry when they hear anyone mention "The D.I." because they know I have another load ready to go. I don't know why but I just don't like having stuff around. Part of it may be that we have moved so many times over the years that I realize how much stuff we have and don't need. I am constantly going through drawers and closets to make yet another D.I. pile. Randall says I am not at all sentimental and I guess in some regards he's right but I am sentimental about pictures and things but not "stuff". This is not to say that my house is always clean or organized mind you. I do try but you know how it is. On that note I won't even own a ice cream scoop because it's just one more thing in the drawer when a spoon does just fine.

4. I am an all or nothing person. Especially when it comes to dieting and exercise. I will be good about my eating all day and then if I were to say eat one chocolate chip then I think to myself "great, now you blew it". and then I will just keep eating junk the rest of the day because I already ruined it with that one chip! One time I went without eating any sugar in the form of junk food for 4 months and then I ate a chocolate chip and I felt so guilty I just stopped and ws back to eating junk.

5. I don't like to sleep at others house or in hotel unless it's really nice. I just don't feel like maybe the sheets or clean or something... I only like the hotels where there is a duvet cover that I know can be washed. If it's one of those quilts on the bed i tell everyone to immediately pull it down and sit on it but that's it. Randall is more than comfortable about snuggling in it up to his face. You couldn't pay me enough money to stay in one of those "Anniversary Inn places".

6 Okay no more, I think you all know by now what a freak of nature I am and I better stop while I'm ahead. I'm really not a germ-a-phobe or as high maintenance as it may seem.

I tag 6 people like Michelle, Texas Alyssa, Jordan and whoever else.
