Ten Quirks of Kelly

Okay, here we go....tagged again. Thanks Natalie. Actually, really, thank you-it gives me something to blog about.

1) All the clothes in my closet hang by color. In my kids' closet they hang by color, then long-sleeve/short-sleeve. Bryce's closet hang by style, then seperated into color.

2) Every single night I have to take a walk around the house and check every window to make sure it is locked, the garage door to make sure it is closed, and all applainces turned off or unplugged.

3) My checkbook has to be balanced to the penny. Yes, sometimes it gets off and sometimes I search for the offage and sometimes I just write it in and move on-see how relaxed I am getting?

4) I can watch the same movies or read the same books over and over and over and over and over again! Myhusband thinks I am crazy....

5) Apparently I tend to have over dramatic reactions to minor things. Again, this drives my husband crazy. (He came up with that one).

6) Okay people, I know everyone out there probably thinks I suffer from OCD, so here's one to solidify your assumption. Every thing in my pantry faces with the labels out and turned at precisely all the same angle. So does everything in my cupboards. Don't knock me-I like it that way, you can see everything and it looks pretty.

7) I totally hate it when people driving in cars do not use their blinker. Hello! I'd like to know if you are turning or changing lanes so I can drive accordingly. I, law abiding citizen that I am, always do, but my husband never does and this drives me crazy...

8) I like to dress my kids in coordinating holiday outfits. I tried church outfits for awhile-always dressing them in the same color or shade of color but now that Kelsi is totally into pink, pink, pink, with a willing purple thrown in there-it ain't so easy. I can't wait for the next baby, because you'd better believe it will be coordinating with someone.

9) I love old music and listen to my GRANDMA'S station-KIXI 880 AM (680 AM is also a great station for anything pre-1950's music)...oh I also wear support hose, a flowered house apron, and get my hair permed down at the 'beauty salon...'

10) I am a nighttime freak and can awaken to even the tiniest "what was that?!" noise, sure at any moment I will come face to face with some crazy wandering around in my house. I have planned escape routes from every room in the house, including how I would get my kids and what household items I would use to smack an intruder in the head with. So beware....there is a 14in heavy metal candlestick that I keep in Kelsi's closet for just such an occasion!!

So now I am going to tag Whitney, Emily, and Nicole.
