Tagged... Six Quirks

I got tagged by my friend Crissy (who just became a mom a few hours ago, for the first time!!!! I am so excited for her!!!!)

I am supposed to share six quirks about me and tag six people. I tag Megan T., Maricela, Carrie, Maria, Amy and Lisa. This is tough to think of six quirky things I do...They don't seem quirky to me.

1. I have two stacks of bowls (12 bowls total) and there always has to be an even number of bowls in each stack.

2. I need to have the dishes in the dishwasher be organized or it drives me nuts when I have to put them away. Also the sippy-cup valves need to be grouped according to type of valve on the side of the sink until they are dry.

3. I can't stand dirty dinner dishes on the counter, they need to be in the sink separated into correct/organized piles. Large dishes on the bottom with smaller dishes on top and utensils either on the side or in a glass filled with water, face down.

4. When putting groceries on the cashier belt thingy, all like items need to be together, in hopes that they will be bagged in the correct bag... this rarely happens.

5. I don't like it when the volume on the T.V. reads above 10,(there is not reason for it to be louder, unless we are watching a movie).

6. I have a breathing pattern as I run.. "in in, out out".

You are so funny! I do the same with the dirty dishes in the sink and think, if i take this extra time to organize the dirty dishes in the sink, why not just wash them right away?!

You are way too organized in the kitchen. I dare you to use your breathing patter, "in out, in out" as you walk away from a dirty kitchen!!

Megan said...

Oh Laura, those aren't quirks.. well not to me! I knew there was a reason I liked you!

Lisa,is that me or do you know somebody else named Lisa? :) This is a funny tag! I do the same thing with the groceries thats funny! Now I will have to think of the quirky things I do! I am sure there are plenty I just don't think about them. Oh by the we did do our own tie dye shirts it was fun!

That was funny for me to read. A lot of your kitchen quirks seem to be a family trait...maybe learned from your mom. Marcos does a lot of the same things with the dishes. I wish I cared a little bit more about the dishes in the sink being organized. It would make loading them into the dishwasher a little less painful.

Laura said...

Yorgason- yes that IS you! So get to it girl!

I have the same dishwasher issue. It's just best that no one else puts the dishes in the dishwasher.

I do #4 also! In fact, I am pretty anal about it. I hate it when things aren't orderly when being bagged up!
