Oh man. This one could let out a whole new series of crazies for me.
I used to not be so OCD about things but since getting married and having kids I think it has gotten worse. I like things to run a certain way, be put up a certain way, etc. Believe me, when I was on bedrest for 3 weeks and other people were having to run my house, wash my clothes, and care for my kids I was on the verge of having a mental break down.
A few things I am super OCD about is that clothes MUST face a certain way on a clothes hanger in the closet. Pants must be put on a pants rack and shirts on a shirt rack. Believe me it sounds easy but I have to constantly remind my husband “that is a pants rack, why are you putting a shirt on it?!” and “can you flip that shirt around so its facing the right way?”. He just doesn’t get it. He thinks as long as they are hanging up then things are ok.
Next it is tshirts that are folded. There is a right way to do this people! The shirts needs to be nice, neat and folded tight so they stack up nicely in the drawers. {sigh} I should hold a class on how to do this because it literally is so simple and no one in my house can get the technique down. Or they refuse to learn.
My dishwasher. You all KNOW how much I love the dishwasher right? So I have four compartments for silverware, etc. One is for the big spoons, one for knives, one for all the forks and spoons, and one for the kids utensils. Easy. Simple. One would think. {sigh} It just makes unloading the dishwasher(which is the ONE thing I HATE) so much easier.
I think I am gonna stop right there because my eye is starting to twitch thinking about the laundry that my husband put up 2 days ago and I am wondering if he did them in a frenzy while I wasn’t upstair to critique him which means it is not done right. Please excuse me while I go on my OCD rampage.

I am the same on the clothes facing the same way.
Funny… I’m the opposite. I used to be more OCD before having my son.
oh, you wanna come visit my house? its begging for your OCD-ness!

My husband reorganizes the dishwasher after I load it. lol
Shirts facing the same direction… I should check if I do that…
I also like all of my clothes facing the same way! Who wants their shirts facing 2 directions? Unfortunately I only have one kind of hanger though so my pants hangers always break!
