Quirks tag

Stacey tagged me...I have to tell 6 quirks (odd habits) about myself. After reading Stacey's quirks I can't believe how much we really ARE alike; I could have used any of hers. Also, she could probably do this tag for me faster than I can cause she knows I have alot of ridiculous quirks, but I'll give it a try...

*Lists - I make lists for EVERYTHING. Grocery lists, To do lists, Stuff I want to look up, Lists for Jason, stuff we need to buy, etc. I usually have lists everywhere; on the fridge, on the counter, on the computer desk, in the bathroom...and at night it's hard for me to fall asleep because I'm constantly making lists in my head.

*Mail - When I get home from checking the mail I can't just put it on the counter. I have to take care of it right then. If it's junk mail I throw it away, if it's a bill, I file it, whatever....I just can't have it on the counter!

*My back-up system - I have to have a back-up of everything!! Deodorant, shampoo, shaving cream, air filters, laundry soap, whatever...Once you take the last of something it gets added to a list (see above) that way we are never actually out of something.

*Making my bed when I get out of it. - It all starts with my bed. If my bed gets made in the morning, my house will be clean that day, if I don't make the bed, then you can forget about a clean house. (Weird, I know.)

*Trash in the Car - I cannot stand to have trash or junk in the car. I have to clean it out as soon as we get home. If Jason takes the car and leaves gum wrappers or an empty soda can in the cup holder it drives me crazy!

Can you tell I hate clutter...and I have to be organized??

I have to copy Stacey on the last one...

*I love doing yard work. - I love everything about it!! My neighbors have always wondered why Jason doesn't do the yard work, but the truth is that he's not allowed. (Just kidding) I love it so much that my neighbor has me do her yard too. When I was recovering from my c-section Jason was doing the yard work and Carter comes in from outside and says "Mom, Dad is not mowing the grass right." Carter knows you have to have the lawn mower lines all going the same way, and Jason just mows to cut the grass...

I tag anyone else that wants to do it.
