You burn 5 calories while hovering btw! <br /><br />I'm not quite as much a germaphobe as you, but i have a strict policy of washing my hands as soon as I walk in the door of my house from being out, and always washing my hands before I eat. My friends drive me CRAZY when we go shopping and sit down to eat, and they eat with dirty, germ infested hands!! Eek! I heard on the radio 1 out of 8 debit/credit cards have fecal matter on them...so now I'm creeped out and have to sanitize my cards...i try not to think about it...SaraBellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11507609550477014464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747705265176561233.post-66213308650571695032012-10-13T00:31:58.241-07:002012-10-13T00:31:58.241-07:00Ironically enough it's the people who live aro...Ironically enough it's the people who live around the most germs that get sick the least (if they stick around the environment long enough). I worked at a daycare and no matter what precautions I took, I got sick. The first year I got sick every other week. The flu, strep, you name it I got it. Now I never get sick even if I were to eat food off the floor (not that I would. ew.) My time in The Hole (that's what I call the daycare) has honed my immune system into a germ nuking killing machine.<br /><br />It also helps that my stomach is so acidic that most germs that enter through that way die upon contact. Take that samonella! Raw cookie dough is back on the menu! (ok, but really only the special cookie dough that you get on ice cream that does not include raw eggs).Stephaniehttp://whimofwhimsicality.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
