Compared to a lot of you guys, I am an Fn slob.
However, leaving the house, my phone, wallet, keys, handkerchief and little Swiss army knife are always in their proper places. When I first retired, I left my wallet at home a couple of times. Never again.
The knives have to be in their 'proper ' places in the rack. The three way switches should be in their 'proper ' orientation.
One weird thing: I count. Coffee for two takes 35 turns of the handle of our cast iron burr grinder. It doesn't matter, as the beans were measured. A count of 12 seconds puts the right amount of water into the kettle for morning coffee. Yes, there are volume markers on the side, but that's the way I do it. When we are loading hay, my wife freaked out one summer when the bale counter died. It never bothered me, as I always knew how many bales were on the wagon at any time.
