Humm, 7 strange/weird facts about me? This is going to be kinda hard!


1. I am about 70% deaf in my left ear. One of the interior bones in my ear never developed correctly when I was a baby.

2. I hate to be in a car. I am getting better at this, since I have been with Gary and we take road trips so much, but I could literally climb the walls when I am cooped up for very long in a car.

3. When riding in a car, as the passenger, I am always applying the breaks or trying to hit the gas to speed up. I really think I need those petals installed on the passenger side of the car!

4. When I start cleaning, I have a hard time stopping. It just seems like one thing leads to another. I start dusting the furniture, then I see the trim and tops of the doors, and then I need to wipe the doors down, and then the door handles need to be cleaned and sanitized, and while I am sanitizing the door handles, I might as well hit the light switches on the walls and the lamps. Oh, the light bulbs are kinds dusty, so I better wipe those off, and the light fixtures are a little dusty, so I better put them in the sink and wash them, then the sink is yucky so I better clean it before I put something else in it, but when I open the cabinet to get the sink cleaner out, the cabinet is all dirty and everything is just shoved in there, so I better straighten that out, and on and on and on. But, I never finish dusting!

5. I have a tendency to go on and on about things. See #4 for an example!

6. I have a very hard time asking other people for help. I think this comes from my first marriage and living on my own, in my mind, if I can't do it, then it doesn't need to be done. Gary gets kinda mad at me sometimes over things things that I "don't need help with", but he is really happy that I "don't need help" when it is time to put the Christmas lights on the house. I don't even ask him, I just climb up there and do it.

7. I don't think this is weird or strange, but some people do. My husband it 15 years older than I. But, he acts about 10 years younger so I guess it all just about evens out! And, he is my very best friend!
