30 Days About Me: Day 12 – Things I’m Obsessive About

Posted in 30 Days of Me, Son by

Day 12- Something you are obsessive about

Even before having kids and my son’s Autism diagnosis, I’ve always been very routine-based, but some things I’m obsessive about are:

  • Playdoh colours CANNOT be mixed
  • DVDs and videos HAVE to be alphabetized
  • If there’s a placemat on a table, the bottom of the cutlery HAS to be 1” from the bottom of the placemat
  • The volume (for the TV, mp3 player, etc) has to be at an EVEN number, or one that ends in a 5
  • The inside of my microwave has to ALWAYS be clean
  • Pictures can’t be crooked on the wall
  • Have to open bags or boxes of food at the top…do NOT open them at the bottom
  • When I attend a public event, I have to scan the event space for potential risks and all the exits before I can enjoy myself – a “hazard” of being a former event planner I guess
  • I cannot write with a black pen…it actually “hurts” me when I have to fill out official forms using black ink

What are you obsessive about?

 

2 Truths 1 Lie 8/4 ANSWER!

Posted in Introduction, Son, Things I'm Excited About by

Just came across a Blog Hop at Randomosity called 2 Truths, 1 Lie, and I thought it was cute, so here I go!

_____________________

MY 2 TRUTHS AND 1 LIE:

1) I get a physical reaction to Playdoh colours being mixed together

2) I learnt how to horseback ride on a bale of hay

3) I am fluent in English, French and Spanish

So, which one is a lie?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sorry ladies, but #3 is the lie…well, a partial lie:

1) It actually “hurts” me when my son combines colours of Playdoh so, I always need to take some time between Playdoh purchases, until I’m “ready” to see it happen again.

2) One of my childhood friends taught me how to ride a horse by starting out on a bale of hay, showing me the right hand positions, leg holds, etc.

3) I am fluent in only English and French as I took French Immersion in school from Kindergarten through to university.  I also knew some words and sentences in a couple other languages and seem to be able to read even more, but the only two I’m fluent in are English and French.

Look forward to this Friday’s 2 Truths, 1 Lie!
