5 strange things

Here are five little known and unimportant things about me

I have big feet.
I wear a 9 3/4. I used to think I was a 9 1/2 because the 9's were too small and the 10's were to big. Wally World or Target don't carry 9 1/2's. Not too long ago I found some really nice shoes at Nordies. 9 1/2!!!. And, they were just a smidge too small. Again the 10's were a smidge too big. So now I'm convinced that I wear a 9 3/4. I am now proud to be a full footed woman. And also thankful to all those trannies out there that insist on beautiful shoes. You can get really cute shoes in larger sizes now.

I've never chewed my nails.
Never. Why? I don't get it. My mother didn't chew her nails, my father doesn't chew his nails and my brother doesn't either. My middle son however will chew them until there is practically no nail left. I never see him do it and didn't notice it for a long time. It's strange looking.

I use one tea bag all day
It's not that I'm cheep. I am but that's not why I do it. I don't like the flavor of plain water. Please don't tell me that water has no flavor because it does! I don't want to drink strong tea all day, I just want it lightly flavored. By the end of the day that nasty soggy bag is just perfect. Then I throw that bag out and start all over again.

I don't shave my legs in the winter.
There. So now you know. I wear long pants all winter, even when the weather warms up a bit. Truth be told, I don't shave above the knees in the summer unless I have to (and yes, I should). If I'm going swimming or planning to wear shorts or a short summer dress I will. Most of the time I forget to so I don't end up wearing those shorts or that short summer dress. Who sees? My doctor? (yeah, once every three years, I may shave for her, but then again, maybe not) BH? I asked him early on if it bothers him and he says it doesn't. I believe him for reasons I'll not share here.

I do not like to exercise
No sir! Not one little bit. I hate it all. I don't like to sweat, I don't like to be sore for days on end. Forget it. My motto, 'Whenever I feel like working out, I lay down until the feeling passes.' and my newest saying 'A little exercise never killed anyone, but why take chances?'

Only one that isn't me is the teabag. Hate tea. I have Sasquatch feet, bigger than yours.
