Gosh.........this is a tough one Moriah!
I am a neat freak who tries to be messy in order to get over my obsession with cleaning. And it's not necessarily the cleanliness that gets me fired up, it's the tidiness and things being out of order and that drive me up the wall! For example............I cannot sit down and relax at night if there is an object, like a toy or even a stray leaf carried in from outside, laying in the middle of the floor. I never used to be like this, but I have transformed into this obsessive person after having Ashlyn. I, unlike most, strive to be messy instead of clean. What is up with that? It's humorous to me now, but once I get home in the eveinings I am overwhelmed with STRESS if one thing is not put back into it's original spot, or an empty plastic cup has not been thrown in the trash. I literally can't relax until I've straightened the house up and swiffered the floors. So I'm clean, and I'm good at it, but I don't want to be SOOOO obsessed with things that I get my panties all in a wad over toys not being picked up immediately after Ashlyn's pulled them out. I need to get a grip, especially with a little boy on the way! This little guy is going to ROCK MY WORLD if I can't get over this little cleaning obsession before he arrives. LOL!
There are many many other things that make up who I am, but right now at this very moment, this is a huge part of me that I'm trying to overcome. So, today I'm a neat freak, but hopefully down the road I can turn into that messy person who drives me batty today! =)

Girl, just come and live at my house for a week. You'd be cured! Grayson pulls everything back off his shelves before I even leave the room. Now, I can leave the dishes in the sink and the laundry in a pile and be okay.
The way I look at it, it's just one of the things make you, you. Maybe you can learn to relax enough to leave the stray leaf on the floor, but still keep things tidy, lol!
Ashley you took the word out of my mouth. Mindy I do wish I could be more like you though...
GIRL! I can relate in a lot of ways. It's the inability to relax.
You know, I use to be JUST like this. AND I worked sooo hard to CURE myself of it..and..now..I am on to something else that keeps my panties in a bunch! haha. I think the honest to goodness part is that we LIKE CONTROL! haha. OR...so that's what My husband keeps trying to tell me!
I LOVE YOU GIRL!
AND yes...this boy is going to rock your world! haha! I'm buying him mud boots JUST so he can be muddy!! xoxo
