I agree. It is exhausting, and so easy to lose sight of the bigger picture while dirt remains in a crevice.
I was brought up the same way... In a museum! I was the oldest... We're you? I think it affects us differently, as we are their first " failure" in that no child is perfect, but Lord do we try!!! The younger kids, not so much. In fact, I think my 12-years-younger sister goes out of her way to be a thorn in my mother's side!

And my husband is Los a slob. He doesn't realize that I cannot function in an area of visual chaos. It's sucks out my mojo and I feel overwhelmed. I think you and I will have a lot to throw back and forth. I'm trying to get over my social phobia so I can get back to therapy. Are you in therapy?

Sorry so short... 50th birthday party for a friend in an hour. Gotta get ready!
