I am no longer in need of medication.
Whereas I was once diagnosed with O.C.D., rituals and compulsions that met several of the DSM IV criteria for this disorder have long since mellowed into mild eccentricities and useful quirks.
I do love to organize!
My spices are in alpha order and my clothes are sorted by type and colour, as is my sock drawer. I even like to compartmentalize the icons on my computer desktop by type and frequency of use. (I created the coloured boxes using the Paint applications.)
Though it’s been shown that a messy environment helps some people be more creative, I benefit from the sorts of changes a Feng Shui master would make to a home: no baskets of magazines on the floor, nothing stored under the bed, air and energy that can freely flow around things. Zen simple surroundings give me energy and make me feel like I can breathe.




















Oooo, I really like the desktop colors idea. I have to try that! I’m not very organized, yet the sight of organized things makes me so happy.
I do the same things with my clothing and icons! :D
Oh, I’m not the only icon organizer in the world! :) K
I like how you organize things Kelly and I think the Zen energy comes through in pictures of your home, food, etc. Love to you, xoO
Me, too — all those things. Amen, sistah!
Anytime you’d like to visit, let me know… LOL, I need lessons in exactly this kinda stuff!
