We all have our idiosyncrasies’ and little neurosis which we try and hide to the best of our ability from most people. But then there are people that you feel comfortable with and then some of your funny habits come to light involuntarily. My Big Brother has called me Mr Monk and Min has pointed out that I am a total Sheldon at times.
Well, I do like things to be in certain order in my life like books in alphabetical order, clothes and underwear color co-ordinated in drawers and cupboards, toothpaste tube to be squeezed just so, things on my desk in straight lines and my aversion of other people’s bacteria etc etc…
If any of these life events go wrong and they do, I get all kinds of uncomfortable but luckily not so visible ticks that rival the number of ticks in the Lyme’s Disease convention. Pun intended ;)
But what I have learned in my 40 something odd years is that you can only control yourself and your space and the rest you just have to accept. Luckily that does not stop me from having tons of opinions and straightening things out even when it is absolutely none of my business. And so life goes on…
Corfu weather report looks good and me and my neurosis and ticks can have a two week break from living in London town. Not long now…

Confession -I misread Sheldon and first thought you were referring to Hyacinth Buckett's son, Sheridon. Thank goodness you put in the link, lol. Wow - a huge Wikipeida entry for a fictional character!
Have a glorious time in Corfu, please eat some beautifully fresh and tender just-cooked kalimari for me. The lovely clear water, and the gentle sunshine that didn't burn (unlike our harsh sunlight here) .... the hotel's 3 hour cocktail hour .... spit roasted lamb ..... memories from 1987!!!
Hello Mickle and Zebby Cat,
Consider it done! Fresh Kalamari is available daily and every hour is a "happy hour" in Corfu.
Watch out for the holiday reports :)
We have more in common that I realised!
I am somewhat germiphobic. Also can be Sheldon-like (Big Bang)
Hope all is well!
Like peas in a pod Mr Rockhill :D
Min commented on how we could be siblings from our picture. Funny life, eh?
Have a good weekend!
