I’m essentially a slob at heart although I’ve come to the conclusion that 5 slobs cannot co-exist under the same roof, so I have spells of clutter-anxiety-induced neatnik bouts. Before I went back to work fulltime, I seemed to have things under control, but I’ve relaxed the reins and now I feel like a new bout is going to hit. It will be a total sucker punch for my family who is boycotting the blog because they don’t like that I moved. Good. That means I’ll talk about them here. Bahaha.

Anyway, I have discovered that if I make my bed first thing in the morning, the rest of the day seems organized. I said “seemed” okay? I am well aware of things like self-fulfilling prophecy and all that psycho-babble.

Still, it works for me. Look, it’s not even 6:30 and after making my bed I have almost finished a blog entry. See? It works. I might just finish grading papers today.

Do you make your bed?
