1. I prefer mustard over butter on baked potatoes.
2. I must lie on my right side and on the right side of the bed to go to sleep.
3. Every time I open the coffee container to make coffee, I take a huge sniff. (Coincidently, my mom does the exact same thing.)
4. I must have ice water next to my bed every night whether I drink it or not.
5. I will not answer the door for anyone after dark if I am home alone.
6. I snooze the clock two times every day no matter how early or late I set the clock.
7. I have a secret ingredient that I use in every dish in which I must brown ground beef. And, I’m not telling.
8. I’d rather pick up dog poop than scoop the litter box.
9. I always put the utensils away first when unloading the dishwasher.
10. I always fold the socks last when folding the laundry.
11. LeRoy, my imaginary black child, does everything that my husband claims he did not do around the house. Example: Leave the dirty socks on the floor.
12. I chew ice several times every day.
13. I wear contacts/glasses because my eyes cross when I am really tired.
14. I’m an excellent cook, but rarely have time to do it anymore.
15. I have a hard time admitting when I am wrong, and I hate to be proven incorrect by my husband in particular.
This was cathartic. Maybe I’ll release a few more secrets sometime soon. What would I have to live with you to know?
I do everything in 5’s (wash five dishes, fold five articles of clothing, pick up five things off the floor…)
