Okay, this is different than my "Stuff" post. A "thing" has another meaning to me, one that I made up. A synonym to a "thing" to most people would be a pet peeve. I use my word like this - I have a thing about bandAids - used bandAids that are stuck or even just sitting around...like by the sink, in bathtubs, or on the carpet. Unlike a pet peeve, a thing isn't just a slight annoyance - it's a big thing (okay, that's the regular "thing"). I get totally grossed out, very irritated, and extremely annoyed by "things". I have a thing about bathtub rings, computer games, bread dough eaten by children, the inside of the trash can lid, our door being left opened, and dirty dishes being put in the stack of rinsed dishes.
What are some of your "things"? =)

What about a post about your favorite things? "Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens..."
-Children's happy smiles
-Purring kittens
-My own comepleted stories and poems
-Being able to play a song on the piano after practicing it over and over
-An inbox full of emaals from friends
-Singing together after dinner
-A clean kitchen
-A nicely made bed just before I crawl into it
-Soft pajama pants
-My jump drive that saved all my stories and stuff from destruction
-Gracie and Betty Jean
-Cute earrings
-A clean room
-My watch
-Watching war and girlie movies with my sisters and westerns, cartoons, and Gomer Pyle USMC with my brothers
-Susi
Know-it-alls. You know what I mean.
Lets see: 'not so favorite' things would be:
*worn socks lying around.
*used tissues sitting in a pile
*bad drivers or super slow drivers
(unless they are elderly. Elderly people don't bother me at all when they drive slow b/c they have lived a long life and they deserve my respect and patience.) Younger drivers however are just downright impatient and illegal drivers are just trying to avoid being noticed by going 15 under the speed limit. Ok Ok- as you can tell that annoys me alot. lol.
My FAVORITE things
*an unexpected coffee from Russ
*smiles that reach the eyes
*a clean house
*a random funny quote from Ella
*Sorry or Settlers with the family
*snail mail letters that force me to send an 'old fashioned' letter back
*hearing from my family
*my retro jammie pants that are as 60's as they get ;)
LOL, Susan!
