What Are You're Quirks! (house, home, shirt, clothes)

[ylisa7]

I think a thread like this was once started but I thought another one would be fun. I'll start.

1. I have to do everything left to right. Painting, mowing the lawn, cleaning, etc.

2. The dollar bills in my wallet must all face the same way.

3. I can't start cooking in the kitchen if there are dishes in the sink.

Who's next?

I don't accept social invitations because I have a gas problem.

[Granny Sue]

When traveling, I just can't "wing" it.
I have to know where everything is. Restaurants, gas stations ect.
Thank god for the internet! And the maps! And the birdseye view!

There's a right way and a wrong way to put the toilet paper on the holder.

Different food should not touch each other on the plate!

I'm a creature of habit. My keys, watch, wallet, etc. all go to a place I know where they are. Glasses and watch on the counter, keys in a dish on my desk, wallet in my bureau. If they aren't there... I'm lost.. no idea where they will be.

I second the roll on a TP holder!

I have to be everywhere early. I don't know if this is from Navy training or not. But, if I have to be somewhere at 10:00, I'm there at 9:45. If the move starts at 7:00, I have to be there at 6:30.

Wallet and key must be in my pocket, never know when you have to make a fast getaway.

I have to leave the house last. If my hubby comes back in for something, so will I.

[tet tea]

If I'm going away for the weekend or longer I cannot leave the house messy or dirty.

And they MUST be in denominational order, smallest in front, largest in the back.

I have a lot of "quirks" as I have some OCD issues. However, I'm happy with them, as the end result is wonderful (most of my OCD is cleaning issues... and I'm happy with how prestinley clean my house is).

All labels facing out... soup cans, drinks in the fridge, etc. and all lined up in order as well (kinda like on a grocery store shelf). Anything put away, is done so in some type of labeled container. My clothes closet... all t-shirts hung up and color coordinated; short sleeve first, long sleeve next, and only on a certain type of white hanger....

Aww... my list could go on and on. The end result? My home looks like it's ready to be photographed for a Pottery Barn catalog. I relax better in a crisp, clean environment.


Edit: Maybe those aren't "quirks"... maybe I'm just an idiot!

And it's with the paper going OVER the roll... never under!

This is why countries go to war, I'm tellin' ya!
