I’m laughing so hard over here, but at the same time feeling so much sympathy for you. Let me know how that goes. LOL

Especially the butter thing, that so freaking cracked me up you will never know. Ha!

My friend is OCD like that too. When we’re over there, she goes around picking up after Andrew. I swear he can’t leave something on the floor long enough to pee, and it’s been picked up and put away. It stresses me out. LOL

Unfortunately, I’m pretty much the opposite, Tishia.

I’m just not well enough to keep up with the house cleaning, and it’s a real mess.

However I’m such a perfectionist, and from reading about your session, though, I can see that most of the mess is because I hate not being able to do things properly.
Sounds weird, but it’s like a part of me rebels and thinks that if I can’t do something really well then I’ll be d*mned if I’ll do any of it.

I never saw that before. But any time the house *is* nicely tidy, it’s because I’ve exhausted myself cleaning and am bedridden for days afterwards.

Thanks for the insight into my own thinking, I’ll let you know how I go with rebelling against my inner rebel…

Oh Tishia, I love this theme! Great choice (but I'm sure you'll change it again, how about a new one every month? LOL). Anyway, I know these changes are going to be a challenge but I think you'll feel so much better once you 'let go' of some of this stuff. As for the butter, keep the crumb one for Caleb and you can get yourself the spray butter. That should solve your bread crumb problem *hee hee* Angie's last blog post..WW: Is it time to go back yet?

LOOOOVE this theme! Very you, very cute!

You’ll be able to relax more when you learn to let things go. You won’t feel so stressed out all the time thinking “I gotta clean my house, I gotta do the laundry, I gotta get new butter out (that one cracks me up!) I gotta turn the toilet paper around, AND yell at whomever put it on the wrong way…etc. Just let it go, and let it be. You will feel much more relaxed. I learned to! Now my house is pretty much a mess most of the time, and I still growl about it now and then, but usually I don’t care (unless someone is coming over.) I can focus on work more now (getting my VA business off the ground)which I Looooove to do. Plus when my family wants me to go to the beach or play a game, I feel like I can more often because I’m not stressing if the house is clean or not. Trust me, you’ll like the reduction in stress you’ll feel when you start to let some things go!
I love you Tishia!

Tishia, I know that control issue well. I struggle with but I can say that when you do release the control it is freeing. Praying for you! LaTara's last blog post..Wise Crafty Momma Am I
