Ok here it goes. I am borderline neurotic---good thing my husband likes things neat and orderly!!
my ocd nerosis is based around uniformity. Most everything has to be even numbers.
And if I am stressed it gets worse. So you can only imagine the last few months......

Here are a few because let's face it you all don't have all day!!

~toilet paper ALWAYS goes over never under
~No using decorative towels-ever these are for guests only-this could be punishable by death.....
~for that matter unless you are a guest you better just stay outta of the guest bathroom
~I like to keep vacuum marks (and they all have to be going a certain way) on the rugs then I know they are clean
~silverware has to be stacked in drawer, put in dish drainer and dishwasher a certain way
~Dishwasher must be loaded a certain way
~anything in pantry have to be labels facing out and grouped together based on likeness-ie green beeans and green peas have to be together b/c they are green, snack shelf, cooking shelf, spice shelf, breakfast shelf
~milk has a specific place in fridge as well as everything else has it's specific spot in the fridge
~chairs around dinner table have to be a certain way
~towels and hand towels and wash wrags must be folded a certain way and color cordinated as well if there are 2 blue then there must be 2 yellow, etc.
~shoes in closet must be one toe facing out and one heel facing out so you can see the hill and toe so you can pick which one you want to wear easier
~clothes are hung color cordinated as well as short sleeve are together and long sleeve are together and work clothes are seperate.
~clothes drawers are divided into catergories as well
~I won't even address the way things are washed and dried-you definetly don't have time for that
~in the morning the all the blinds in the house have to be a certain way
~I have a routine for the shower, getting dressed and getting ready- I get all crazy and forget things if they are done out of sequence

I have a specific routine for everyday of the week. I am a very habitual person now. I think that I lacked normalcy and control groing up(my parents were kinda hippies) so now I am a control freak--I am learning to give/relinquish some of that control so I don't go crazy.
So now you know if you didn't b4 I am a crazy women
