7 Random Things About ME!

My friend Leisa tagged me so here it goes~
Here are the rules. You start with seven random facts about yourself. Tag seven people and list their names. The people who are tagged need to write on their own blog about the seven things and the rules. {Don't forget to leave them a comment that they have been tagged and to read your blog.}


1~ I'm a "Laundry Nazi" I wont put anything away until it has been ironed. I iron almost everything and sometimes I will iron all day. Everything I fold has to be perfect, even if it's the kids under ware. All my hangers have to match, and everything I hang has to be a certain way on the hanger and all the hangers have to go the same way!

2~ I'm addicted to reality tv. You name it, and I have either seen it or am currently tivoing it {is that even a word?} I don't know how I ever went so long without tivo? Now that we have it I'm in love, I think I just might die if someone was to take it away!

3~ I have OCD! Everything needs to be done a certain way. I wipe my kitchen table down 2 times after every meal, first to get all the crumbs and stuff off, then I disinfect and wipe again. I always start and end at the same place. Every time someone eats at the table I have to wipe the floor down by hand {this always has to done after the kitchen table is cleaned off} Chairs always have to be put in just the right spot, they also have to be wiped down after each meal. I always wipe the garbage cans out before I change the liners. I like everything to be organized, even the cereal boxes, big to little!

4~ I cant stand when people have a dirty microwave! It's so gross to open up the microwave and it's covered in old food, Disgusting!!! I clean mine after every use.

5~ I love the Disney channel, Hannah Montana, Wizards of Waverly Place, The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, Camp Rock, and High School Musical. I also love watching any and all of the holiday cartoons. I love it when all the shows you watch have a special Halloween or Christmas episode, even cartoons!

6~ I care what people think. I hate when my kids leave the house looking like orphans! I think it totally reflects on me. I hate it when they want to pick out their own clothes, or do their hair themselves. Sometimes I have to just bite my tongue and let them go, but trust me I don't like it, and try not to let it happen too often. Even with Madi, and she's 12! I have although, become a lot more relaxed as my kids have gotten older, I think it just gets to be too exhausting trying to care so much all the time.

7~ I'm not really a people person, I'm trying a lot harder but that's just not me. I love family parties and gatherings, but their family and I'm comfortable around them. I'm not one to just start up a conversation with someone I don't know very well. If we have a ward function, I'm much more comfortable going to them with someone I know. I hate going alone, and usually won't. Some people might think I'm a snob, but I'm really just waiting for you to talk to me.

This ones really random and just for fun!
8~ When we go to the movies we always buy the large refillable popcorn. We usually never refill it, so I take the bag home with me and take it with us next time we go to the movies, and then refill it for 50 cents, it seems cheap, but who pays $5.75 for popcorn and doesn't feel jipped? By the way, we also bring in our own treats and drinks, but who doesn't? I guess I'm just cheap when it comes to that kind of stuff!


Now I tag Tammy, Sarah, Sarah P., Karalee, Ally, Elisabeth, Madi, and Shauna! Also anyone else who wants to play along!

Thanks Tiff for doing that! I loved reading it and most of all I love knowing that I am not the only OCD person in the world. Maybe it runs in the family?

Haha..those are all so funny. I'm just glad other people care about what their kids look like when they go out of the house. I can't even trust my husband to dress them. And having a clean house is important too, but I can't say I'm quite as bad as you.

Ironing all day?? I make Brett buy the wrinkle free shirts. I would love to see your house. I bet it is spotless. I am not really a people person either. I am much better one on one than in a group.
