1. I cannot fall asleep if my feet are cold.
2. I have an ultra sensitive sense of smell.
3. The blankets must be pulled up high covering my ear (whichever one is showing as I'm a side sleeper) but not my face in order for me to sleep.
4. If I have to be somewhere early in the morning, I set my clothes out the night before (when I was working I always did it the night before). I also set out as much of my breakfast as I can and make sure the diaper bag is packed.
5. The first thing I do when I get home from being out is wash my hands. They just feel dirty and I have to wash them before I start touching stuff in my house.
6. I have to floss my teeth before I go to bed at night.
7. Like Rhonda, I too, have a colour coded closet (and so do my kids).
8. I always fold laundry on our bed. I dump it all out on our bed first and then start folding away, making piles around the perimeter as I go.
9. I have to empty all the grocery bags/bins out onto the counter before I can start putting the groceries away.
10. I can't stand drinking coffee without cream and while we're being really honest, I'm not all that crazy about coffee, what I LOVE is lattes.
11. I sleep with 3 beanbags (magic bags) every night in the winter and 1 in the summer and they must be hot, not warm so they actually warm me up.
12. Everything must be just so before I can fall asleep at night. The blankets have to be in just the right position, I must have fresh air coming to my nose but need to keep my ear covered. And I have to be in just the right position or I will toss and turn until I am. It's quite hilarious to be honest.
Apparently I have lots of little quirks related to sleep. I never thought about it before but I'm super grateful that Jonathan puts up with me.
Be sure to check out Rhonda, Mary and my mom's blogs to see their lists too.
We are more alike than I ever knew. 3,5,6,7,10 - DITTO! LOL! This was a fun read!

Love the list. I'm very much like you, especially 3, 5, 6. I think we get some of those sleep habits from our mom. ;)

I too, have very similar sleep habits:) The blanket HAS to be covering my ear but my face definitely needs to be showing...too funny.
