What do you say to them? More importantly, what do they answer?

I talk to things in my house.
The vacuum, the ironing board.

Is it normal to check if the door is locked four times??

Just down feel down them when you are out in public Jane?

I've got depressing pants. I just look at them and feel down. Nothing wrong with them. No excuse to chuck them.

I rotate plates as well Jane10 I use a different mug each day so they are rotated as well. If only I could get out more smile

Look at our post timings LadyBella. We couldn’t have done that if we’d tried ?

I found myself apologising to a vase this morning. Told it that I couldn’t use it as it was too wide but it would get a turn soon.
Also had a good chat with my sewing machine.

Some of my things are starting to annoy me. Just looking at them irritates me. Those 2 vases will have to go soon. Can't wait for charity shops to open.

I hurt mugs feelings because I have favourites. Some of the others do have their own special place in the cupboard though, the rest don’t get used ??

Nope. These all seem perfectly fine to me. Also don't forget to rotate your use of plates and mugs so they are all used and you don't hurt any of their feelings.

I think I must have spent too long by myself in lockdown because I am starting to notice things like I have a favourite hob (bottom left), double light switches have to be facing the same way and I really don't like towels overlapping each other on the rail!

Is it just me? Surely I can’t be the only one with these strange idiosyncrasies? ?
