Okay, I know we all have a little OCD. I'd like for everyone to share what theirs is. It can be work related, home related, just anything at all, big or small.

Okay, I'll start with one of mine and it's has to do with this site. You know when you go to Most Recent Post and it brings up all the most recent post. All the news ones have that little bubble out to the side that says "New" in it. That just drives me crazy. I can not stand having those bubble there. I have to go through every single post, even if it's something I'm not even remotely interested in to get rid of it. Sometimes it takes a while too, because if it's been hours since I've been on there will be 4 or 5 pages, sometimes even 6 pages that I have to go through to get them all to "GO AWAY". I don't know what it is, but it literally drives me crazy.


Okay do you think I need to see a shrink? LOL


Let's hear what your OCD is.

I get nuts, really nuts when someone uses and does not put my spices or cupboards back in place. I admit, everything is in alphabetical order and lined up line in straight lines.  My excuse is, I'm under tall and I'm sticking to it.

I have to pop each of my fingers the same amount of times.  If I pop my pinky twice, then I must pop the other pinky twice.  HELP ME

I have another one with my dishwasher. I have a certain way I want my dishes to be loaded into the dishwasher. Of course when my husband or one of my kids,(which by the way is hardly ever, my kids that is),  load the dishwasher they don't put them in there the way it is suppose to be done. I usually don't say anything, b/c I'm glad they are helping, but when they aren't looking or aren't around I have to rearrange everything the way it's SUPPOSE TO BE!!!.


It drives me crazy and I know it drives my family crazy, b/c they have seen me taking dirty dishes out of the washer and rearraging them and they ask me "What are you doing?". I just tell them I'm trying to make more room. LOL

Mine is making sure that my kids are still sleep in their beds, like they are going out to some wild party at age 4 and 6.  I lose half my rest worrying about that.  I makes me insane!!

I am a very hard sleeper and am known to hit snooze once or twice, so when i have to wake up for something early like work, school etc. I will often set up to three alarms  to go off within minutes of each other in case instead of hitting snooze i accidentally turn the alarm off... I know, INSANE right?!!

If I take a drink out of a bottle, I have to take at least 5 sips...usually 7 is better.  Weird, I know!

I count ice cubs. I must either have 5 or 7 never 6. Actually, I never have 6 of anything if I can help it. I have to check my alarm clock at least 4 times prior to going to bed and then at least once each time I get up during the night.
