I double back or triple back on some things like, switching things off and locking doors..... even though I know I have done it... I just have to go back and check it again...like when I disconnect from the internet...I know I have disconnected ...but I have to go and check again..... I've locked a door...I know it/....... But I just have to go back and check it..... I know I married Michele, but I have to go back and make sure .........  swink

On reflection  i do that often to the point of turning back even if its gonna cost me a few minutes .. and double check .. but then thats when me distracted  mood in the morning. or in a rush .. . i know its dangerous and has consequencs so i sooner double check .. Michael we getting worried about your last utterance .. rolling pin for you !!

Our Paula .. Settled down I hope ..  good to see you  transmogrified into Bugs Bunny .. how  you doing??  .. me nowhere near  taking piss out of Mike .. I am having dejavu moments of recognition and  yes well yes ..  aware of our  perfectly inflicted  imperfection .. its what makes us all so interesting .. Michele seems to be happy with the  crazy man she settled with and  yes  she is indeed the woman ..

Whenever I'm buying a magazine or paper I can never take the top one,

it always has to be a couple behind....the same with all my shopping,I

always have to take from behind the front ones!!!  Does any one else do that?? idontknow

Diana Rudd (Boehme)

Oh yes, I think because I test the front bottles of deodorant,perfume and airfreshners that everybody else does. Then I take one from the back.
O.P.S -1969, Springfield Convent -1970, Holy Cross Convent-1972., Centaurus-1974
I got around.

@ Pam - I also don't take the top magazine/newspaper, always from the middle of the pile!

And also with regard to shopping - I like to pack the shopping into the bags myself, I hate it when someone else packs it and all the shopping is mixed up!

Mike also always used to laugh at me when I set out the breakfast table at night before going to bed - of course not being the one who has to get the girls sorted and off to school he doesn't realize how of a morning every second counts. Now in all the magazines you read about time-saving they tell you to do that, so  :emot172: to you Mike!

Hell, this is a buzy topic today can't get in here for love nor money  :sorriso2:

@ Pam an Di....same here

My mom was the best...when loading the washing machine she would start with smalls then on top of that medium items then the larger things... hanging the washing, all the underwear would be in the middle (so neighbours could'nt see) then she would work her way outwards with jeans being the last to be hung

Shopping.... all the cold stuff together all the tins together, cleaning material ect ect. Paula and I still giggle about it when we go shopping.
Better to burn out then fade away!

Retail Tips.... Never take the front item in an upright fridge, it will be older than the one at the back and not as fresh due to the defrost cycles on the fridge or warm air in a store blowing against it... always take from the back...

When buying a deep frozen item, always take from the bottom, sometimes the packers or a customer leave the item above the red line ... partially defrosts then is repacked into the fridge by mistake by a packer only to refreeze..... so take from the bottom.....

What if I fell into the freezer reaching for the items at the bottom?

Michael Alexander

You should only shop in a store that caters for leprechauns then.......   image201
