I'm a perfectionist in many areas of my life, but keeping a neat, organized house is definitely not one of them. Our place is a total mess right now. When I work in an office, my desk is always messy. Clearly I'm very tolerant of mess :-)

However, oddly, I have OCD that mainly centers around fears of contamination (my T said it's a weird combination--that usually people with that type of OCD keep their places very neat and tidy). So I wash my hands all the time. I keep the kitchen and bathrooms generally sanitary. But there's clutter everywhere! Our 4-year-old certainly contributes to that, but it was messy before we had her. And I only rarely do things like dusting.

And I worry about being judged on my mess. No drop-in visitors allowed!
