I am another one who makes the bed as soon as we get up. Actually, hubby sleeps later then me so, the bed is made as soon as he gets out. The other morning, he got up went into the bathroom, came out and the bed was made. He just looked at me and rolled his eyes. What can I say? :)

I don't have anything quirky about me. Nope, just a long, long list of things that have to be done the 'right' way. Like the way I put the toilet paper on the roll (long end in the back), the way I throw the newspapers into recycle the moment I'm done reading them, the way I also dry the shower so it doesn't get moldy, or that I like things put back exactly where you found them. See, no quirks, just those and several more things that are the RIGHT way to do things. Ask my husband who has to deal with me <wink>.

When I have pasta with any toppings, I eat all the pasta 1st, then the veggies, then the meat

When eating, my different foods can't touch each other, and I eat one food at a time-meat first as I like it hot the best!

I like to have a visual reminder out in view of everything I am trying to remember to do. Only papers that need filing can be in a stack.

Honestly I don't know where to start. Too many to list before my bedtime.:MOJE_whot:

Sounds normal to me, I usually buy a case of the girl scout mint cookies.

This week I'm anticipating Yodels in the mail and in the past I've had bbq sauce from Spicy's Chicken (Bellport & Riverhead LI):icon_hungry:mailed to me.

We know Cyndy wipes her shower down after every use. ;)

I have a thing with toilet paper and kind of have to immediately run out to buy more if our stockpile gets down to less than four rolls. You never know!

I always sort the paper money in my wallet so that the portrait heads are up and front-facing, with denominations ordered from small to large.
There's an eating order for cans of deluxe mixed nuts -- pecans first, then Brazils, then cashews, then almonds. Ignore the hazelnuts.
I also put the paper money in my wallet the same way. And before I leave for work in the morning to make the money, I double check my cat's food & water bowls for the day...wet food, dry food, water. Then I give my cat her instructions for the day..."Watch the house and don't let anyone park in my driveway." Then I can leave for work.

I have to arrange or rearrange everything in order, and if some one changes it I do it all over again.

Ha-ha... You have a great memory!

Can I have your hazelnuts?

No, No, NO! Must be in the front. Seven cats didn't mind! And the puppy grew out of it.

Went passed Spicy's in Riverhead this summer and the dumpy diner look has not improved but it is still a favorite of Suffolk County residents.

Post-It Notes: I heard Post-It Notes were invented accidentally. Don't know if that's true. I think Post-It Notes are a great concept, but unless I am using them between pages in a book, I tape them. :o

I take my pillow everywhere. Even overseas.
