weird habit

Just remembered one of my weird habits...was watching this program about a couple who had twins and then sextuplets. The mother is super organised and amazing. Was watching an episode of them in a hotel and she put all her kids on the beds and told them they weren't allowed to step on the floor without putting their shoes on. It so reminded me of me. Except she thought it was normal...i know it's a wee bit weird.

If I stay anwhere which has lots of rooms, like motels or hotels, I get very paranoid about cleanliness. I always have jandals (called thongs here, or flip flops in other countries) which i wear even if the hotel is spotless and has lots of stars. I just think if a maid has lots of rooms to clean she might skip things which look kind of clean but really there are germs everywhere.

I'm especially paranoid about pillowcases. My hubby thinks it's hilarious. I always take a pillow case and if it's just a motel we haven't booked ahead, I take my own sheets. Same reason, a maid might overlook something that looks clean, but a pillow case where someone could have dribbled all over or sheets...well don't need to explain there.

But when i've stayed at a private luxury cottage where there was only one cottage with a beautiful bed with white linen and very little else to tidy...I thought this must be clean...they need their guests to be spoilt because they only have one expensive cottage to rent out and only one room plus a bathroom to clean. So the pillowcase stayed in the bag :)

Yip, I'm weird....but now travelling with a child and another on the way...i might behave a little more sane...or insane??...but still might keep the jandal habit :)
