Sometimes you have to mess things up to clean them up....Okay, you should see the kitchen, and the dining room table and the great room floor. Wall to wall MESS and I am a confirmed neat freak. No, I am not going to show a photo.
I lined up my dolls in perfect order as a child. I have a photo to substantiate this. I am color coded and alphabetical. So to walk away from this tonight and decide to continue the cleaning and sorting project in the morning is a true act of courage. This means I have to delay confronting this much disorder. It has to be messed up before I can clean it up. But floor by floor, drawer by drawer, Mosquito Gulch is getting cleaned and scrubbed and sifted and sorted for the New Year.
Mind you, this plus shopping plus showing a home plus cleaning the Jeep were also on the action list for this cold winter Southern Maryland day. Plus I had my Folks over for ham and potato salad and green beans for dinner plus cleaned up the dishes.
Okay...Hip, hip hooray, I hope I can finish it all on Sunday.
Then I can go back to my color coded, alphabetical, symmetrical lifestyle of choice that gives me comfort for my blogging VOICE!
