THE RULES: Each player of this game starts with the '6 weird things about you.' People who get tagged need to write a blog post of their own 6 weird things as well as state these rules clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says 'you are tagged' in their comments and tell them to read your blog. I'm not so sure what the definition of weird is so here goes:
Okay so Alexshuman tagged me - so she must think there are 6 weird things about me although offhand the only 2 I can think of are my kids ;-)
1. I see everyone has mentioned sleeping in socks or going to bed with socks on and then kicking them off - hmmm - what's up with that - I would go barefoot all the time if I could - it was 25 degrees outside this morning and I went out to take down the bird feeder that the wind was trying to blow off the tree. And once when there were several inches of snow on the ground, I went out barefoot to talk to a neighbor - about 15 minutes later her husband said, "you don't have shoes on". I cannot stand to wear shoes without socks but I would never think of wearing socks to bed at all - my toes are claustrophobic so even on the coldest nights, the feet have to be sticking out from under the covers.
2. For the most part, I cannot stand to be in my pajamas unless I am in bed. The first thing I do when I crawl out of bed in the morning is get dressed. My co-workers are always teasing me about going to work in my pajamas.
3. I have absolutely no one that I would really call a friend. I have acquaintances but I think of a friend as someone you would share your most inner thoughts with - secrets you wouldn't tell anyone but a true friend. There has never in my whole life been anyone and I definitely mean anyone that I would tell everything to.
4. I love moving. The thought of packing up all my stuff and going to a different place or home to live is exhilarating to me.
5. I thrive on crisis at work. When we have a client who upgrades software and it totally messes things up, I get very excited at the prospect of spending hours on their machine trying to figure out what happened and how to correct the problem. The more problems they have, the more exciting for me.
6. I constantly make lists - lists of things that I need to do today, lists of things to do tomorrow, lists of things that need to be done in each room, lists of food I need to buy in the future, lists of how many cans of beans, peas, corn etc are in my pantry. The more time I spend alone, the more lists I make. I'm alone here for the next 2 days so I'm currently working on 3 lists - what I need to do before I leave, what I need to do while I'm in Colorado this weekend and what needs done when I get back. Send me more paper.
Well - I don't know who to tag because I think everyone has already been tagged. I only have 12 blogs on my list of people and that includes me so think I've run out of people to choose.

I'm calling you over the next move we make. We have a box here that Clint wrote on it what was inside it and he also wrote: We LOVE to move w/ a little guy smiling. That is not how I felt when my friend and I unloaded the second uhaul truck by ourselves! We moved it ourselves cause Clint was worn out doing the first BIG stuff load practically on his own. I had a tiny bit of coffee that morning and I was still buzzing by 6 in the evening and so my friend was game on moving stuff w/ me. Clint said that should be one of my weird things: I have a tiny amount of caffeine and I'm still wired 10 hours later.
You must be super-human to be able to be out in the cold barefoot! Weird!
I love making lists! I bearely use them but I make them. I love the feeling of being busy!
I totally know how you feel about "friends" I consider people "friends" but really there isn't a single person that I would confide everything in. I love the few people in my life who I can talk to abotu lots of stuff, like dacheese and purplelurple and hairball, and I tell Will lots of my silly thoughts. Honestly I don't think I have had more than one serious friend in my life, and his name was Dan.
You are the type of person kids swarm too. Always the awesome Aunt, taking the kids places or doing fun things with them. You are also talented in so many ways. I know I could learn so much from you.
