Habits

When I wash my hands at work, I tend to "wring" out my hands before I dry them to save on paper towel usage. I started doing this intentionally, even though I'm not sure if it really helps me use fewer paper towels. Anyway, I didn't realize it was now a habit until Adam caught me wringing my hands out at home. He looked at me kinda funny and said, "What are you doing??" I looked at my hands, and started laughing as I told him.
 
Isn't that interesting that some things become habits without our even meaning them to, and how some other things, even if you really want to do them, are so hard to remember to do regularly? Example - medicine that you take every day. I still had to put a reminder in my phone or else I'd forget to take it. Yet I wring my hands out at home without even thinking!
 
That's it for today... Happy Valentine's Day!
