It’s CDO. It’s like OCD, but the letters are in alphabetical order. AS THEY SHOULD BE!!!

I keep my egg carton balanced port and starboard, fore and aft.

I put the cleaned plates and bowls UNDER the ones that are still in the cupboard so all the plates and bows get used equally. Same with towels.

Good Grief!

Of course! But it’s not OCD, it is ease of use and maintenance. The towels & sheets are folded the same way and stacked folded edge out so they are easy to grab. The clean dishes and silverware are rotated. The butter or margarine is cut tidily so it doesn’t look unappetizing. If the eggs in the carton are balanced the carton is less likely to fall over. And, absolutely! the money is smoothed and stacked all facing with the top of the presidents’ heads toward the right. It actually is easier to count them if the bills are tidy.

I feel sorry for tidy people. Lol

Lost 5 pounds? I’m sure she will find them again..Soon!

oddly enough OCD doesn’t mean tidy just organized. I do all that but my place is a mess.

Lost 5 lbs.? Look behind you Blanche !

The comments add greatly to the sentiments about our need for order!

“There are even machines that will count, sort, face, and check for counterfeits at high speeds.”.The problems I avoid by dealing mostly in ones.

“oddly enough OCD doesn’t mean tidy just organized. I do all that but my place is a mess.”.Or perhaps not even organized, just obsessive with a compulsion to do certain things and have certain things a certain way...In other words, it might be a mess, but it’s YOUR kind of mess.

I knew a guy who was little off his nut..He would walk into somebodys house, take out his little pocket screwdriver, and align all the electrical outlet wallplate screws to the 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock position.

I do all these things. My wife does just the opposite.

Something like that is a crime against humanity. It’s amount the “not breaking a kit-kat before eating it” monstrosities.
