- I have a set routine in the morning that I like to follow. If I deviate, I usually run late.
- I have a household chore that I do each day of the week. Same chore, same day each week. If I miss a day, I double up the next.
- I grocery shop every Sunday, and if we're out of town, then I go on Monday after work.
- I eat the same thing for breakfast every weekday morning (oatmeal and yogurt for those of you wondering).
- I even use the same bathroom stall in the bathroom at work. Next to last one. If it's occupied or hasn't been flushed, I go to the last one. I get all out of sorts if the last 2 stalls are both filled- don't people know I have a routine?
I could go on and on.
Are you a creature of habit?
These are funny - and very familiar. I'm totally a creature of habit.
ReplyDeleteI used to be much more of a creature of habit until I started doing shift work at the hospital. My schedule changes from week to week, so I've learned to go with the flow. But, there are certain things that I always have to do when I'm at work {checking rooms as soon as I start, reading through all of a patient's notes, making sure my pockets are stocked with gauze and alcohol swabs!} and I have a tendency to buy the same things from the grocery over and over. I think that having a routine makes life easier!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah. I am like freaky-deak obsessed with my lil' schedule and routine. I do the same things every day every morning. I eat the same thing every day for breakfast during the week. I have the same routine when I get to the office. I need help, haha!
ReplyDeleteHahaha....that is so funny. Nursing school does not permit you to have a routine, but before I had Cricket (who likes to stay in my bed until about 11 am), if I didn't make my bed before I left my house I thought about it ALL day long. Other than that, I can't get into bed without washing my face. I just can't.
ReplyDeleteI'm very routine oriented during the week, from the breakfast I eat to the radio stations I listen to while driving to work.
ReplyDeleteI am the poster girl for being a creature of habit. Some people MIGHT go as far as to label me OCD but I'm not quite that bad, I don't think.
ReplyDeleteyep- totally a habit girl! i have to have my tabs open on my computer in a certain order everyday... that's just one of many!
