Everything was pristine, no crooked photos, no crooked books or anything...LOL. And cleaning in the middle of the night is great, just like shopping during the night!<br /><br />I'm so with you on the slurping and bad table manners...it gags me and I can't stand to see it in movies either. YES, A Christmas Story is the only exception...how do the little piggies go??!! LOL<br /><br />I was an "in between" as a child...we could have one poster and it had to be tacked on the door, not the walls. My dad wouldn't let us hang stuff on the walls....he ran a tight ship! :-) Much love and hugs to you my friend!! Have a great evening!! xoxoxoBenitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02712521705008463049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-74149923693906961062015-09-18T16:26:00.471-05:002015-09-18T16:26:00.471-05:00Thank you so much AnnMarie…I’m just hoping that I ...Thank you so much AnnMarie…I’m just hoping that I make the top 10! :-DBenitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02712521705008463049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-42054640498938034422015-09-18T16:25:03.118-05:002015-09-18T16:25:03.118-05:00LOL...I'm so glad to know that I'm not the...LOL...I'm so glad to know that I'm not the only one with chalk issues. I refused to erase the chalkboard when I was little and usually got a smack from one of the nuns...yes, I went to Catholic school...and was a wild child...LOL And don't even get me started on raw meat....I have to wear gloves and usually gag the entire time...LOL.<br /><br />Wasn't that a great show??!! She looked totally different without all of the make up...I think she was actually blond. And I thought it was cute how her voice would inflect on the word UP!<br /><br />Tammy, you are just precious and I thank you so much! Tell Cole thank you and give him a hug for me! We are all special in our own way, right??!!

LOL. <br />my late sister in law ... the marine's wife ... couldn't stand to touch velvet or velour. she would literally break out in goose bumps! so we all have our little OCD's.<br />mine is people who slurp and smack their food. i just can't stand it. i can't even stand watching it in a movie.<br />the only scene i can enjoy like that is the one in christmas story. that is too adorable. <br />the strange thing about me is my love for design. <br />i enjoy all these 'home decor' blogs and yet i'm a minimalist through and through and always have been.<br />even as a teenager. that made me VERY weird to my peers. their rooms were chock FULL of posters and knick knacks and all kinds of things.<br />my room always looked like a little cabin on a ship. very bristol fashion. it just lets me BREATHE. :)<br />XOXOXO♥tammy jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16568939993585811311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-18428602480126479672015-09-18T08:58:15.647-05:002015-09-18T08:58:15.647-05:00Happy wishes for the blog award!

I worked on my issue's but chalk no, nope, not going to touch it . I remember in grade school refusing to write on the chalkboard and getting punished for it. Oh, and when they went outside and smacked the eraser's together to get the chalk out , vomit!!!
