I've always known that I am a little obsessive about the way things are. I'm somewhat of a neat freak you could say. Well, the other day I realized how crazy I really am. Mike has been sleeping in since I've worked longer hours the past two weeks. This means he's still in bed when I leave, meaning i cant make the bed in the morning. My bed hadn't been make for 3 days (certainly an all time record for me). When i went to get into bed on the third night.... i snapped. I had to make the bed, stripping it completely then remake it from scratch, then unmake my side and get in. That's when i realized I'm crazy. The sheets and blankets were all crazy messed up and i just couldn't take it anymore. My mom use to always tell me that even if you have the worst day ever, at least you have a nice clean, straight bed to come home to, well i didn't have it, and I went a little crazy. I've ALWAYS made my bed in the morning. I'm trying to not let it bother me. Most days now I just make it when I get home from work because Mike doesn't ever do it, he could care less, so its just me all on my own. Seriously, if it was up to Mike, we'd have a fitted sheet and a comforter.
Apparently the girls at work have noticed some of my craziness too. Jess was telling Joanna about how I'm rubbing off on her, we have to have all the charts in neat, straight stacks, and the message stickies have to be exactly straight on the charts. I'm crazy. I'm obsessive. I'm particular. I've accepted and embraced it. I am getting better though, I no longer try to organize Mike's side of the closed against his will, and try not to be too upset when others don't comply to my craziness.
I'm trying OK!?!? That's all I can do!

Hey yo! I never said it was a bad thing, because in all reality...if you weren't organized all hell would break loose and we would have charts missing. So I think it is a good quality to have!
Jeremy makes fun of me all the time! I'm not the greatest house keeper but there are those little things that I have to have "just so". I realized that one day when I followed Jeremy around the kitchen closing cupboard doors behind him.:) Oh well, what do you do. I really wonder how bad my house and kids would look if I wasn't a tad bit crazy! So I hear ya.
Umm, we only have a fitted sheet and a comforter... it really bothered me at first but that is how Pete has always had his bed, so I've had to get used to it, but now I actaully like it better!
I never make my bed! I like it that way. And I usually only have a fitted sheet and comforter. But kudos to you for having the energy to get up and make your bed. I never know when I can go to sleep because of the graveyard shifts and the kids!
It's good to hear I'm not the only one that does these things. Chad has finally organized his side of the closet in colors and makes the bed. It's seriously killing me to be down for so long and not to clean! Thanks for being a greatfriend.
