Five Weird Habits ...Count'em. Five. No more, no less.

1. I am beyond anal when it comes to the covers on my bed. They have to be smooth. I cannot stand bumpy sheets. I have been known to tell Bert to get out of bed and help me straighten the covers! Gives me the willies just thinking about it.


2. Whenever I eat Smarties (candies) I have to eat them in two's, either in pairs of the same colors or similar colors.
3. I don’t like Christmas. Deal with it.

4. I don't like my hands to be dirty or icky.. I'm not OCD about it, but I need clean hands. Especially under the nails. Evidently I have been this way since I was little. Mom said I would come in the house and wash my hands and then go back outside to play some more.

5. I talk to people in other cars when I drive. Mostly the morons. I thought Berks' first word was going to be "Dumbass". Because of the dumbasses, I don't like to drive. People are idiots. (No, not you. You are pretty much perfect!)

What about you, you perfect, weird person? What weird habit do you have?

Self -Care

I just finished Day 1 of a 2 day training program on Suicide Intervention Skills. It’s an eye opening experience, very intense and emotional. The group itself is varied… young, old, male female, those just out of school and retirees. In our discussions, we discovered that anyone and just about everyone has at some time or another has been effected or touched by suicide. The seminar has covered a lot of information and hopefully by its end it will have taken away a lot of the fear associated with helping people dealing the suicide. My trainer Terry has given us some homework; we are supposed to do a self care activity. The purpose of this activity is that if we cannot take care of ourselves how can we be expected to care for others. Self care has been defined as “the right and responsibility to take care of your physical, emotional and spiritual well-being”. Self care may also be thought of as anything that contributes to our emotional, spiritual, physical, and/or social rejuvenation. In other words it’s “Me Time”. Me time,” refers to time for oneself to participate in activities that you enjoy, that provide you with peace and happiness, and awaken your senses. It can be anything from taking a shower / or bath, going for a walk, doing your nails , reading a book, paint, sketch, draw, or be like me and blog. For me blogging is therapeutic . And if I still want to get away from everything I'll get into a steaming bath and play music and just shut my eyes. No interruptions allowed!
