Steelers and Nick



This video was Nick's idea, He is a Steelers fan and his family and friends back home cheer for the Ravens. This post is in honor of the legitimate but controversial touchdown pass during last Sunday's game against the Ravens. The touchdown resulted in a Pittsburg win. Go Steelers!!

Oh what a slacker I am...

I was tagged ages ago, with the 6 quirks tag. Here you go.

1- I am a picky eater, and according to Nick I take it to extremes. Before I will eat even one bite of my food, I must pick out all the things I don't like. And if I miss even one tiny piece of a pea, I can taste it and the meal is ruined for me, therefore, I have become very specific when I order.

2- When my meal is a Hamburger and fries, I eat all the french fries before I touch my burger, and generally can't finish the burger.

3- I wait to do the laundry until I can do a huge load. At the rate we go through clothes in this house with two kids, I could very likely spend all of my time doing laundry. I also hate folding it.

4- When I ask Nick a question and I don't feel he answered it well enough, I rephrase the question as many times as it takes.

5- I would rather play with my kids than clean the house. This may seem normal, but I would sacrifice always having a pristine house for kids who know me and enjoy my company. Don't get me wrong, I like a clean house as much as the next person, and my house is rarely a disaster, but I wait to do my cleaning until Nick gets home or everyone is in bed, which leads to a very tired me.

6- This one drives Nick crazy. I write every purchase down in the checkbook, as it happens, while I am standing in line. Rarely does the checker scan so quickly that I take up extra time though. Nick always tells me to wait until I get to the car, but I can't do it. I have to do it then.
