To bring out the OCD in you

My husband and I are a perfect match- except when it comes to organization. He will admit without shame that he is a bit excessive on the "neat and tidy" front. He might even be a bit OCD! Everything has a place, and if it's not in that place, it un-nerves him.

In our new kitchen, we can't find drawer dividers for our cutlery drawer that will fit the size of the drawer, so for now, we have to just group the spoons on the left, forks in the middle, and knives on the right. I don't know how many times I've caught him in that drawer ARRANGING each knife, fork, and spoon so that they lay perfectly straight on top of each other (and I tried to explain that when you close and open the drawer, they're just gonna get messed up again...but ah, oh well!)

I bought him a label maker one year for our anniversary, and it was his absolute favorite gift ever! He went around making labels for EVERYTHING, on every shelf: "Toothpaste," "floss," "Small hairbrushes," "Combs," "round hairbrushes"... it was actually pretty cute.

Anyway, if any of YOU readers enjoy organization, you'll LOVE this website: www.lifeorganizers.com ! It has TONS of information, cleaning tips, checklists, organization charts and storage ideas!
