I am definitely not OCD

Bloggers tend to have this reputation for being obsessed with organization and cleanliness. 
 
Cleaning schedules
Closet organization
Hand sanitizer
Highly organized blogs
Blog posts for days and months ahead of time
Planners
A love for doing dishes or cleaning toilets
Living minimalist lives
Living on a budget
 
Don't get me wrong, I have an Erin Condren Life Planner.  I once made a cleaning schedule, but I never once used it.  It does not bother me to have dishes in the sink.  I'm a teacher that rarely uses hand sanitizer (unless I just pumped gas).  I'm not scared of germs, in fact I don't give a second though about holding a kid's hand.  Maybe that is why I have a cold?  But it seems to me that people who obsess over germs are the ones who are sick the most!

I write my blog posts the same day that I post them (gasp!).  I have to run out of clothes before I do my laundry, and sometimes it sits in the washing machine for too long, so I have to re-wash it.  And I definitely do NOT live on a budget. 
 
Do I like to be organized? Yes.
 
Do I like to have clean clothes and a shiny kitchen? Yes.
 
Would I like to have all my blog posts written out ahead of time?  Yes.
 
But it's just not me.  And I don't lose sleep over it.
 
I forget things. 
 
I get tired.
 
Cleaning makes me a little grumpy. 
 
And I cannot think of one thing that I obsess over.

  1. Haha I'm "Monica Geller" about certain things, but I'm definitely not as OCD as some bloggers appear to be. I honestly wonder how much of it is an act for their blog and how much of it is real :-P
