Our little "Monk"

For my readers who have never seen the show "Monk" on USA, you won't understand this post. Monk is an obsessive compulsive, extremely detailed detective who never misses anything. I'm convinced Katie is Monk in training. She notices the most minute details and she can be playing and singing and she will hear an entire conversation that Tom and I are having. But her latest thing is clearly like the character, Monk. Monk has a rock polisher and he even gave his assistant's son a rock polisher for his birthday. Monk finds cleaning and polishing things, even rocks, fun. Well Tom's parents took Katie to Myrtle Beach February 24th and 25th and she came home with beach toys, a new shorts outfit and some sea shells, but she calls them rocks. Well since she got home with those shells, she has washed them at least three times a week and then takes a wash cloth and polishes them until they are completely dry and one even shines a bit. These shells never leave the house. They aren't getting dirty. But she feels the need to clean them often. Who knows? She could be a CSI detective when she grows up with that attention to detail. Of course she would want to clean the dust instead of dusting for finger prints. lol

For those of you who have never seen Monk, I highly recommend it. I love it! I prefer the newer episodes. His assistant in the older episodes was from New Jersey and her accent and Jersey attitude was annoying. But anyway, it comes on USA Network, usually on Friday nights but there are reruns all weekend.
