Softness

I got tagged by Reflecting Memories the other day to post a list of 10 things about myself. I believe this round is 10 things that we are OCD about. Here are 10 of my obsessions and compulsions:

 

1) under garments: they have to match each other and at least somehow coordinate with my outer garments. When they don't it bugs me.

 

2) kneading: I knead my feet like a cat when I go to bed. I can't help it. It's just something I need to do.

 

3) clutter: I cannot stand piles of "stuff" lying around. It drives me crazy. Since I am so busy with school during the week, I usually reclaim my space first thing every weekend. (My mother on the other hand, is a clutter bug. She is my babysitter).

 

4) details: I fixate on details. I will spend hours trying to fix some little flaw that others probably wouldn't even notice.

 

5) food: I LOVE good food. I could think about it, eat it, talk about it, cook it all day. When I had cable I watched Food Network most of the time. My children have never had Hamburger Helper, and I think that is a good thing.

 

6) photographs: Not sure I need to clarify this one. You are all on Flickr too;)

 

7) hygiene: I was a server for a long time, so I wash my hands A LOT. I cannot stand being next to people with B.O. (or too much perfume). Obviously, I try my best to not be the smelly one. I am a bit of a germaphobe when it comes to public bathrooms.

 

8) licking my lips: I always have to have lip gloss or chapstick on my lips. I will lick them constantly if they are dry. Yep, my lips are usually chapped.

 

9) music: I usually have music playing. If a song really speaks to my current mood, I will listen to it over and over again.

 

10) textures: I am touchy feely. I love soft fabrics. I love the feel of cool, damp grass on my bare feet. I'm like a little kid that always has to touch things to look at them;)
