five things: particulars

We all have things that we're particular about. I don't care who you are or where you're from, I am sure that there are things that you are particular about. Some may call this being picky. I call it being unique. When talking with family and friends about these things, I am often fascinated by the things that make them who they are. I have to admit, I probably have many, some of which I'm sure I don't even realize. But here are five particular things about me that I will share...

I prefer my water to be room temperature.

I can not sleep without first applying lip balm, preferably Blistex.

(As a side note I also need to apply hand cream as well.)

I have this thing about trimmed nails. Every weekend I cut my nails and little guy's nails. And if hubby doesn't cut his, I grab his clippers and hands and get to work. It just feels neater and cleaner with short nails.

I keep my money in order, literally. They must all be facing the same way and be in order of denomination. If folded, I keep the lower bills on the outside. I thought maybe this was instilled in me from my early retail days, until I realized that my Dad does the same thing. Maybe it's in the genes...lol.

I must check all things before going upstairs to bed; lights out, TV off, stove off, doors locked, etc.

So, I'm curious...What particulars do you have? :)
