1. Tradition-I always make Advent Calendars for my family and friends. I personalize each one with encouragements, or things I admire about each one. It takes forever but it is something very special that I love to do.
2. Tradition-Since we have grown children and our grand baby is still young we open our gifts Christmas Eve after church, stay up late, and sleep in Christmas Day.
3. Quirk-I get annoyed when I've been watching a movie for the last two hours and someone comes in at the last 5 minutes and wants to know the entire plot.
4. Quirk-I hate having items put on my desk chair when I come to work. Put it on the desk, I'll see it ...trust me, that's why I clean off my desk before leaving every night.
5. Quirk-I sleep with one foot out from under the covers. It's like a personal thermostat...if I get cold I slip it back under the blanket.
6. Quirk- I take my own pillow with me whenever I travel.
7. Quirk- I worked the night shift at the hospital for 25 years so I tend to be "a night owl " versus my hubby who is a "morning lark".
8. Quirk-I really get annoyed when I'm really into a movie and some one wants to talk to me or make comments through out the entire film. (Grrrrr!)
9. Quirk-Mr. Wonderful always brings me coffee in bed in the morning since he gets up before I do. When he's not home I miss that morning ritual the most.
10. Tradition- We believe in celebrating life. Birthdays, Good Hair Days, Holidays, Survival Days, Lunch with Friends, Barnes and Noble Dates, Ice Cream Cone Capers, Mother's Day, Father's day, Ground Hog day etc.
