Cleanliness is next to......

OCD.... The term that most of my friends have pinned on me. And yes I admit I am a tiny bit over the top when it comes to cleaning. But I prefer CDO. Everything is order remember?

 When did it become a crime to enjoy having nice clean things?
When did wanting you kids to grow up in an organized orderly manner become so un heard of?

 I have to admit I have gotten better ( only because with my work and school sched. I had no choice) and yet the cleanliness of my house has gotten worse. So what if my saturday plans are to clean my house... I will be enjoying it come Saturday night. To me that beats any alcohol, band or movie/dinner night out you could throw my way.

I am the person who loves to walk down the cleaning aisle at walmart because it smells SOO good! I get excited over NEW and IMPROVED cleaning products and I take a great deal of pride and accomplishment out of clean dishes, no dirty laundry and everything being dusted and in its place.

So what if I own almost every febreeze airfreshener out there ( and they are organized by color of the lid) My house probably smells better then yours ;-).
Is it really a big deal that I put things away a certain way by shape or color?  I bet I can find things easier then you.

I just really hate when people say " oh your cleaning again."  Lets just get one things straight.... YES I am cleaning again... and YES I do have better things to do, but I am an adult and no one else is going to come along behind me and clean up after me anymore.

So when you visit my home, and I say ignore the mess.... just shake your head and smile because my idea of a mess may be your idea of squeeky clean. :)
