My friend Lora tagged me, so here it goes:
Here's how it works:
A ~ Each person has to list 6 facts / habits about them
B ~ After part A go to 6 people's blogs and leave a comment letting them know to read your blog and that they have been tagged. List at the end of your posting who you have tagged.
All righty:
1. My first one is a habit. I am a two time snooze pusher person with a ten minute faster than normal time clock setting. That's a mouth full. When I set my alarm I take into account my habit and the additional ten minute "cushion." It's very complex. :)
2. Another habit is that I say "just kidding" after almost everything. This is a habit I'm trying to break, so it is getting better.
3. Another thing I say is "Do you want to...?" Nels really dislikes this, because I'll say "Do you want to do the dishes?" or "Do you want to help me cook?" Nels thinks in his head, "No, I don't
want to do the dishes, but I
will." So I'm trying to phrase my questions as "Will you please...?"
Very hard habit to break.
4. Now I'm going to do three about Nels.
Nels is a terrific speller. He can spell anything and he can spell backwards...which is especially useful when playing the game Cranium.
5. Nels loves Othello and Checkers. I think he could play them all day long, fortunately he doesn't.
6. Pretty much everyone knows this about Nels, but, oh well, I'll state it for the record. Nels loooooves cars. He researches them, collects brochures about cars and test drives cars.
Quick story:
Earlier in April Nels had a 15-page research paper that he needed to work on. He kept complaining about it until I got tired of hearing about it. So, I bribed him. (a technique I learned from my parents:) I told him that if he didn't complain about this paper anymore then I would go test driving with him for 60 minutes. But every time he complained then I would subtract 5 minutes from the time. He stopped complaining about it and went to work on the paper. Worked like a charm, and he only complained one time so we went test driving for 55 minutes last Saturday. We test drove the Nissan Altima.
Anyway, I tag Rachel, Katrina, Kayli, Stephanie, both Heather's and Dalee
Have fun and I look forward to reading them! :)
