Used to be about 'Stickies', now seems to be about OCD... :D

[FionaH]

Any of you OCD types wanna come round and organise my house?

[RedThorn]

I can't help it, I like things tidy, in their place, and logical. I'm going to go sort my books into height order now, and turn all the food cans so that the labels are facing front

Is it possible to place them in another way

You will have to sign a pledge that you will always ensure that:
- cutlery sits neatly stacked in the drawer, it does not fall about
- tea-towels are ironed and stack with the fold alternating
- handkerchiefs, ditto (Ghost moment) tea-towels
- clothes will always hang in the wardrobe based on the colours of the rainbow
- newspapers (if they really really must be kept!) are stacked as for tea-towels
- garden pots are washed after use and size-graded

erm, oops

I bet you all feel for Snowdrop now don't you He is the only man I know that would never ever leave the toilet without closing the toilet seat and closing the toilet door - it only took me a week (max!) to train him

When I get home tonight, I must put a photo of our cutlery draw on here. I have a step daughter with learning difficulties but by heck everything has got to be in its place.

Cuttlery - check!
Tea Towels - check!
Handkerchiefs - ?
Clothes, Rainbow - Nope, but if I had the space, that would deffo be a possibility...
Newspapers - don't have one
Pots - too lazy, but I always aim to be like this

All in all Piskie - you're actually NoRmAl like me!

[RedThorn]

Piskie... you forgot to mention ironing the bedding too. with the matching pillow cases and the fitted sheet folded in between the cover so you take 1 set out the cupboard and all and sundry needed is there! Fitted sheets also properly folded in a certain way to come out as 1 neat rectangle. Dusted ornaments go back on the shelf in the exact same place at the same angle you took them off at and narry a skew picture frame in sight....errmmm maybe I'm a bit OCD too

[Flummery]

Oh, how I cherish my chaos!

[zazen999]

You lot are very very scary.

So, who's going to volunteer to sort out the tent plan for Grapestock?

I'm off to get very muddy, get these bad thoughts out of my head.

OK - cutlery in it's own drawer, fair enough
Tea towels and hankies, why iron, they're fine just washed and folded (whichever way they fit, what's this alternating bit?)
Clothes, don't own the colours of the rainbow but do put same type together ie all skirts at one end, then long sleeved, short sleeved etc, seems more logical than by colour to me.
Newspapers, don't buy but local ones go in the recycling bin
Garden pots - we've had this before, they get size graded so they stack OK but other than that, life is too short!

He is the only man I know that would never ever leave the toilet without closing the toilet seat and closing the toilet door - it only took me a week (max!) to train him

If he closes the door how do you know if anybody is in there, if the door is shut at ours then somebody is in residence so you don't go in. With you on the loo seat though, OH was trained when I met him, thank God!

[piskieinboots]

If he closes the door how do you know if anybody is in there

I have to assume that visitors would lock the door, everyone who knows me (and comes here) know's it's a house rule They are used to me
