TAGGED!

I must admit that this is the first time I've been tagged. Adrian tagged me. I'm supposed to write down six quirks. You guys probably know my "quirks" better than I do!

1. I CAN'T STAND TO BE LATE!!!! As you know, I come by this quite naturally as my Dad would drive home before he would walk into church late. We have had more fights in our married life over this one point than anything else. I would rather sit there for a long time and be early than walk in even a second late. I liked the quote I heard at our stake conference that it is the ultimate selfishness to expect the Lord to wait on us. I guess that just applies to being on time for church, although I think it applies to anything.

2. The toast has to be buttered the SECOND it comes out of the toaster and it has to be LIGHT brown. I can't eat toast that isn't soft and buttery. The HARD and DARK BROWN really gets to me.

3. The kids tell me that I turn on my blinker about TWO MILES before the turn off.

4. Shirts have GOT to be pressed. I guess my pressing shirts for a dime a piece when I was little influenced my psychic on this one! I hate to see a shirt that isn't pressed - even on little kids.

5. I like things put away - keys hung up on the "hanger" - glasses and wallets put in the same place every day so that I don't have to spend forever looking for them.

6. The minute I put milk on my cereal, I have to eat it. If I put the milk on there and then somebody asks me to do something, I have a nervous breakdown. I don't do "SOGGY."

I'm sure you guys can think of more!

Love ya, Mom

YAY--you did it!!! I've been so excited to read it!! I bet I drive you NuTS with the "ironing" thing---I am the WORST ironer in the world, so I usually just DON'T iron anything! (I always burn myself when I try.) I definitely did NOT inherit your great ironing skills! I'm with you on the cereal--I DON'T do soggy either. Nathan dips his toast in his milk when he's done eating his cereal & it TOTALLY grosses me out! Soggy BREAD?!? YUCK!

Thanks for doing the tag! You're the best!
