I chose my lucky number when I was 8 years old. Any guesses as to what that number was? Yup. 8. (I know I'm not supposed to start a sentence with '8' I'm supposed to write 'Eight'. '8.' is also not a proper sentence. I don't care.)
Besides it being my age, I'm not sure why I picked 8. Or why I even felt the need to pick a lucky number. But pick it I did, and to this day I consider it my lucky number.
(Kind of funny for someone who doesn't really believe in luck and has never really had anything 'lucky' happen to her. Seriously, I never win anything.)
So in honor of my lucky number 8 (and because I feel like blogging, but don't have a single solitary idea in this blank head of mine) I'm going to tell you 8 random, possibly little-known, most likely strange, things about me. Wow, what a sentence.
- I count stairs. Going up, going down, doesn't matter. I've counted stairs for as long as I can remember! I also have to start going up or down with my left foot.
- When I close the blinds at night, I have to turn them the 'wrong' way...you know, the opposite way that most people turn them. I feel like it makes it darker, which is a plus if you want to sleep in. Oh wait, I don't do that anymore...
- I have to have the TV on to fall asleep. Unfortunately, John needs the TV off to fall asleep. You can see the dilemma this could cause. I guess it's a good thing we rarely go to bed at the same time!
- I do the dishes every morning. I leave them after dinner, because I'm busy playing with JJ, giving him a tubby, feeding him and getting him to bed. I don't mind waking up to a sink-full...it gives me a sense of accomplishment first thing in the morning. :)
- Even though I love music, sometimes I turn the radio off while I'm driving. There are times when I just need some quiet!
- Frozen Hershey bars are one of my favorite snacks. I just ate 2 of them.
- Sometimes I leave clothes in the dryer for days. If there's something in there I need, I just fluff them up and pull it out.
- I make the coffee every night before bed. Every. Night. Sometimes JJ and I get up at the same time, and it's hard to make coffee with one hand!

I love frozen Hershey bars too. Not sure what it is about having them frozen that makes them taste so good. :)
LOVE this! I count stairs a lot too.
Kristi, they're so addicting! I could almost eat a whole 6-pack! Christine, I wonder if Mom does! :)
I count stairs too. Not all the time, but quite a bit. I figured it had to be from working with children and always counting. The dishes thing would drive me crazy. I'll stay up to do them when I can barely keep my eyes open, cuz I hate that mess in the morning.
