Rule My World

Everyone says I have too many rules. Things I wish people would do, that they don't necessarily do, or things that I have to do (just a slight case of OCD here), or am in the habit of doing.

SO! I am going to try to give you a different "Kristi Rule" each day for a month, then if I have more, I will keep going. I know, you're all saying, "she'll have enough for a year." We will see, this should be fun...

Kristi Rule #1
You must count the steps as you go up or down.
This may be obsessive compulsive, or not, but it is a habit that in my head has turned into a rule. Good thing I don't live in a 5th floor walkup.

We just had this very conversation with a group of people the other night. We were asking in the crowd who was or wasn't a counter. It was so funny. Jane was most amazed. She went online and found out more things about people counting things. It was like passing around a flashlight holding it under you're chin and saying, "I'm so-in-so and I am a counter..."

My brother is the same way. He can still tell you how many steps it is from the bathroom to his bedroom, from the back door to the garage, from the front door to the curb, on and on...at all the houses we've ever lived in.
He has some issues--but they don't seem to be as serious as yours.

How does this fit in with the rule? I have a perseverating problem and no matter how many steps I take I keep repeating the same number...2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2, or 4 4 4 4 4 4 4, or 11 11 11 11 11 11. I'm sure you get what I mean.
