I thought everyone did it this way...

[XUfan]

You know what I'm talking about. There are things that you do or say...that you've always done or said a certain way. But, sometime during your life, you've met someone who thinks what you do or say is odd...because THEY do it or say it differently.

For example: A former boyfriend thought I was odd, because I put my socks on before I put my pants on. To me, it seems easier, and I've always done it that way. To him...it was just plain weird!

Got it?

OK...so to play this one, you have to answer the one that was posted above yours (you can also answer others that were posted earlier...just make sure you answer the one just before you). Then, you can post yours.

I'll start:

I always thaw the frozen juice before I mix it. Apparently, not everyone does. Do you?

[hbaqueen]

Hmm I dont buy frozen juice so I dunno.

My mom always took the "baby" "sperm" "nasty white spot" yep shes called it all of those , out of the egg before cooking it / using it.
So, I did too until my husband told me I didnt have to do that lol

[XUfan]

I can't say that I've ever done that...but my grandma did! She called it "the germ". Although I think she might have meant "sperm". She was from Hungary, and didn't always get her words right!

I can't get into a bed that hasn't been made that day. If I'm going to bed at 1am...dog tired...and forgot to make the bed, I'll still make it before I get in!

I was taught in Home Economics in Jr High, that was the umbilical cord!
Wow, hbaqueen-your Mom sounds fun and original.
I don't know what that is-does someone?

I never wear closed shoes or socks, but wear clogs constantly-the wood kind from Scandia made in Sweden. For day use, 3 strap Birkenstocks-no one where I live wears either.
If I must wear high heels, I get super large knee highs and pull them higher than the hemline.
I dislike hot feet. I can't keep my feet under the covers either.
Does anyone else do that?

I can easily sleep in an unmade bed!!! but I do have to have my feet covered up, even on a hot summer night.

If I have toast with peanut butter on it for breakfast, I have to dunk it into my cup of chocolate milk.

[momof4inmi]

Both my mom (cheynesnana) and I have to sleep with one foot out of the covers. Weird I know but where do you think I learned it...lol.

[Sweet_Southern_Mama]

I do the one foot out from under the covers thing too. DH has to make sure his pillows are directly on top of one another and each end has to be the same distance from the headboard . . . basically they have to be perfectly straight. I have to put my socks on before my pants too.

[kandpsmom]

I am so glad I am not the only crazy person who puts socks on first Hubby thought I was insane when he saw me doing this to dd when she was a baby.

I grew up eating mayo on scrambled eggs. I really thought everyone did until dh informed me that nobody does that and I was smothering eggs in eggs.

[shelleyf]

I put my socks on first too. I also can't leave the house unless my house is perfect. It is not like anyone is going to come over and frown on it while I am gone. lol I also have to straighten out the grocery stores for them, cans facing perfect (like in my house) I am obsessive about these things it drives my husband wild. He said why are you doing Kroger's job of lining up the groceries for them? I told him I like things neat and in order. It also helps handicapped people reach things if the cans and boxes are up close on the shelf for them. That is a big part of why I have to do it. I wish my coupons were in this kind of order, that's another story. lol I am workiing on it.

[jenrose]

I am definetly not a OCD neat person. My house is a mess so I deffinetly do not straighten stores shelves LOL.

DH thought I was insane for dipping my porkchops in apple sauce. Now DS does it as well and DH encourages it.....go figure.

I have to have a blanket or sheet over my middle at all times while sleeping. My feet go back and forth between covered and uncovered.
