Busy Work

I was tagged by Making Peace for my meaningless contributions to life! Here are the rules:

1) Link to the person who tagged you.

2) Post the rules.

3) Share six non-important things / habits / quirks about yourself.

4) Tag at least three people.

5) Make sure the people you tagged KNOW you tagged them by commenting what you did.

I'm not really good at this stuff, but I'll do my best!

1. I like to do things in "sevens." I don't know why, but I count almost everything I do and need to do them seven times. It's gotten a lot better, but through high school and some of college, I was a little obsessive with it. I used to breathe in sevens.
2. When I go up or down stairs, I like to land on my right foot...this will cause me to count steps before taking them or memorize step counts for stairs that I use a lot. Again, I have no idea why this happens.
3. Candle stores make me want to puke...it's just too much!
4. Even though I teach Algebra, I can't do a lot of everyday math...I hate elapsed time, subtracting in my head, or figuring out percents...my husband makes fun of me all the time, but I just don't like it...maybe when I'm not working, I don't want to think!
5. I love my hair, sneezing, football (watching not playing), jackets, Kelly Ripa, and the beach.
6. I hate commercials dedicated to politicians, burnt food (esp microwave popcorn), dirty fingernails, lights being left on, not being included, and stupid people (usually parents who taint my students who have no other choices).

Now I will tag people from cyclesista who have not yet been tagged...this is so unlike me, but I'm buying into it! I tag Meghan, Denise, and Maria. Have fun!

Just sending you and your babies positive energy.

Your blog is inspiring! We just started with infertility treatments. I too have unexplained infertility issues. I'm healthy as I can possibly be and it really is a fuggin' bitch of a diagnosis. Luckily our health insurance is da bomb and covers IUI through IVF:)

I'm on my first round of IUI. Looking forward to reading about your pregnancy journey.

Thanks for the tag. I've already done this (see my post from January 31st) and because I'm too lazy or boring to think of 6 new things, I'll let you just read my old post. :)

Although not quite as OCD as you, I do tend to count stairs as I'm going up and down. I don't do it as much as I used to, but as a kid I could have told you exactly how many stairs there were in every place of our house, etc.

Thanks for the tag, but like Denise, I just recently did this. I don't think I could come up with another six interesting things about myself. I'm a bit boring.

But thanks for thinking of me!!

Meaningless? Nah...just a peak into our weird minds which make all of us feel a little less weird for counting things, etc. I mean how many tags have you read where people have a quirk with numbers?! LOL! Thanks for buying into it!
