Top Ten Tuesday

An idea I borrowed from Crazymama's blog:

Top Ten things that make me feel sick:
*in no particular order*

10. Old sippy cups.....like when the baby takes off with her sippy, and leaves it behind, only to be found by me days/weeks(?!) later? The last three were found under my bed, in the playroom, and behind the couch....old, curdled...I didn't even open them to attempt washing....they went straight to the trash.

9. Stepped on dog poop. YUCK! I hate trying to clean it off shoes, but worse is when the kids(or myself) are running around barefoot and manage to find a nice pile to step in. It makes Jared sick too. Whenever he has done it, he sits there gagging and dry heaving as I'm cleaning it off his foot. When it happens to me, I do not feel clean again until I have scrubbed my soiled foot with a Lysol sanitizing wipe. Just a little OCD coming out...

The next few are from when I am pregnant, which I am not, and never will be again!

8. Raw meat. I could not handle raw meat and then eat it after it was cooked when pregnant. Chicken and hamburger were the worst. It took me a good six months before being able to eat a burger again after I had Ellie.

7. Cilantro. For whatever reason, I could not eat(or smell) cilantro when pregnant.

6. Cleaning up kid vomit. I can handle it when not gestating, but anytime the kids got sick while I was pregnant, I could not do anything except bathe them after their clothes were stripped! Good thing it only happened when Ron was around to help!

5. Rye. As in the spice. Seasoning. Whatever it is. I hate rye bread. Smell, taste, YUCK!

4. Mushrooms. gack! Small, cooked, non-overwhelming taste mushrooms are okay, but big ucky pieces of MUSHroom. Yucck. Just the thought that they are a fungus that grow underground in manure...no thanks. And since we're on food...black-eyed peas. Might as well eat dirt.

3. Cleaning the bathroom without rubber gloves. I'm afraid the germs and dirt might get on me without the rubber glove layer?! (Not to mention the skin eating properties of cleaning solutions!)

2. Taking children to/helping children that are not my own in the bathroom.

1. The nastiness that clogs bathroom drains. Just the thought of it....

Okay, what makes you sick? What can you not handle, or do you have a stomach o'steel?

I love mushrooms! And rye! Yummy! But I don't want anybody around eating tuna fish. UGH! Nor would I eat mayonnaise, mustard or squash. Hate all of those! I also despise most cleaning but I think I'm just lazy ;)! And after years at the ranch, poop seems, eh, not the end of the world. Good list! Thanks.

okay I can't say that I agree with all of your food things--really what is salsa without cilantro? But since I have never been pregnant (and don't plan to be for a long while--lets stop the rumors now...lol)--maybe I will change my mind then.

But as for things that make me sick...the top of my list is the animals hit on the road. Gross and even worse after you have driven by them--the smell...okay I think you have my point. :)

Now aren't you glad you asked?
