Tagged!!! Not it...

Just kidding. Well Kate, you are getting your wish. You get to read 6 quirky things about me, and that could be almost comical. But that's the whole point right. Well, since it seems like my next couple of weeks are filling up fast, I thought I would go ahead and get this out of the way.



So here goes:



1. Link the person that tagged you Kate
2. Mention the rules on your blog
3. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours
4. Tag 6 fellow bloggers by linking them (Teresa)


Quirk #1: I shave my legs and arm pits only once, maybe twice a week, and always for Sunday. That's kind of gross, huh. I just can't seem to find the time in the shower to shave everyday, and it really is a luxury for me to spend that extra 5 minutes to get rid of leg and arm pit hair. So that's quirky, but that is me and I'm so sorry, Chad.

Quirk #2: I have to chew at least 2 pieces of gum at a time. In fact when I only chew one piece, my mouth feels ripped off. It is definitely a nervous habit, but I guess that I can live with it, I'm sure there are worse ones out there.

Quirk #3: I have to floss my teeth every morning. I have my little routine after my shower, and ever since my dental hygienist told me to floss more often I have squeezed flossing time into that routine. Now I just have to start flossing at night...

Quirk #4: I need my volleyball fix weekly. I just love the sport so much and I am very grateful that the ladies in my neighborhood feel the same way.

Quirk #5: I like to turn the heater on even with the top down, in the mustang that is. How else are you going to enjoy a convertible in Idaho?

Quirk #6: I only like to go grocery shopping if Chad is with me. Call me crazy, but we really do much better shopping when we are together. We've tried it alone, and things just seem to get forgotten. That's not to say that we don't occasionally forget things when we are together, but the experience is much more fun. Definitely good bonding time.

So there you have it. I guess since Kate already tagged two of my other known bloggers, I'll tag my one non-family member friend (maybe that should have been one of my quirks, not knowing very many bloggers!!!). So here's to you, Teresa, you are officially tagged!!!

Beth, I love reading your blogs. I am sure glad you girls are keeping me in touch. Your Apricot jam is delicious on crumpets. No tea, however, goes with my crumpets. I keep the jar here in the office to use for breakfast after I practice piano in the morning.

Mom, I'm so glad you got your package, I was worried that it might not make it overseas. I sure am glad that my canning can bring some joy to others besides my family. My boys just don't appreciate it all just yet. Hopefully in a few years...

Ok, I'm jealous that you can floss every day. I've made a goal to do it after my last dentist appt. but I haven't kept up with it yet. I think I've flossed once since my appt, last week. ok, so once a week isn't so bad, is it?

And another thing. When am I going to get some of your delicious apricot jam??? Hmmmm?????

Kate said...

eww...what is up with my sisters never shaving? am i the only normal one in the family? or is it i just shave enough for all of us?

It's my life.... said...

Just for the record... I now shave nearly EVERY DAY!!!! :) but I still am a hippie-dippy chick at heart. I love you guys.

Ok Kate, just so you know, we have turned down our hot water heater so that the boys don't get accidently burned by the water, thus my shower is not always the right kind of temperature for me to stay in for more than a few minutes. That's why I don't shave everyday, but that is just a good excuse, maybe I am a little lazy. Oh well.

As for the jam...you'll just have to wait until Christmas!!!!

Kate said...

yeah, not a very good excuse. we just turned down our hot water heater, too. so there. and i STILL shave every day! even though...its not very enjoyable shaving with goosebumps!
