Those I've known with OCD have been very orderly in most things. One person has to put a deck of cards in order by suit before she can put them away. Another has to have an equal space between all of the hangers in his closet. One of my neighbors invites people to look in his closets when they visit--everything is sorted by color and type of garment, etc., and of course all the shirts are hung with the buttons to the left and so forth. Sheftali often admires such orderliness, and tries to be at least half as organized. Sometimes.... |

Interesting insights, solo. It's a good thing I'm not OCD, as my husband would drive me crazy if I were. Clutter doesn't bother him, nor does dirt or dust. I try to find a happy medium, which is good in most things, right? |

Its funny reading this. My hang up is the pantry! All box goods on top shelf and all the cans labels facing out with all the vegies grouped together. My kids hate it when they have to put up the groceries! |

I believe it is CDO... which is OCD... BUT IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER THE WAY IT SHOULD BE... Tee-Hee |

Baldur's spice cabinet always attracts attention, now I do try to keep the door shut when company is in the kitchen. |

Baldur, I don't think that's the same as OCD. I think your is a control issue...you want to keep everyone else who only speaks English OUT of your spices and probably your kitchen altogether! LOL No one cooks in there but the chef! I speaka no Latin, so shudder to think what spices and seasonings I could confuse in there! |

Baldur has since collected different nicer jars that have now all been de-labeled and cleaned. |

BR keeps one entertained! I also have quirks. One concerns blinds, closet doors and dresser drawers. They MUST be completely closed at bedtime. Curious spouse could not figure this out. I patiently expained, "If you DON'T close them, monsters will come out and get you while you're asleep." He still thinks that's funny. I however, am serious. It's just not right to sleep with those things not secured! : ) |

And solosater, my spouse would say about you, "She's one of us!" |

Oh those people who don't close dresser drawers completely drive me bonkers, not just at bedtime either. |

I find feeding old footware to these creatures keeps them occupied, recently they devoured a pair of black Justin cowboy boots. |

About dishwasher loading. At start of 2nd marriage, age 46, I was shocked to learn I had been loading the dishwasher 'wrong" all my life. When I realized things "had" to be loaded a certain way I knew that dishwasher loading would forever be beyond my scope of ability. |

And, I did eventually confess my sin. Spouse has a great sense of humor. So I still try to find horrid places to put things in the dish washer and he still corrects my efforts. : ) |

This however is an entirely different matter from having ones window blinds not adjusted evenly. |

So now I know where my socks, ear rings, and many other things have gone. The monsters are real! My world has been shattered and now, dear Baldur, I will have to ponder on the goat. |
