I also have a space issue here. I can't fit all of my sh*te in this little room.

My grandmother is an absolute nightmare fanatic about cleaning. So my mom was a bit looser. I have some bad habits. But I am a clean person just a "piler". I've got a pile here, there, everywhere. I'm working on it though! Okay, 'night Ledgie peeps.

Night! My mom is like that for the same reason, cause my grandma is so anally clean! My grandma used to play "Little Nelly Neat" records for my mom, and then be all "I loooooove Little Nelly Neat! She's a good girl!" What kind of twisted **** is that?! And I still remember how my grandma taught me the intricasies of Ironing Napkins...sure, you think napkins are just square, and easy...but no, you really have to take great care in ironing napkins... course, at my house, we didn't own an Iron...

Barf. My grandma likes to brag..."I ironed your mom's underwear and socks!"

Anal clean is evil, I tells ya!

Oh god, I have never heard of Little Nelly Neat! Pure evil. Ahh, your mom had a psycho mom too, I knew we had some common thread going on. My grandmother ironed everything too (well not underwear but sheets and such). She dusted, vacumed every day. There was never a thing left out anywhere, no clutter at all. She was barely human. The sad thing is now that she's had her stroke she would rather eat junk than dirty her kitchen making herself some food because it is hard for her to clean up like she knows she "should". Very sad.

DUSTING!!!! Ugh... Stuff in my room has like an inch thick layer of dust. Gross. But, if you have a lot of stuff like me, it takes a full day just to dust my dresser

I have a friend who irons the bed sheets. Not the duvet cover (though she does that too), but the SHEETS - which go under all the covers, and that the minute you lie on them, go wrinkly. I need someone to 'splain that one to me.

Ack! I've ironed many bed sheets in my time. My mother was obsessed with just about everything being ironed, and I was left with that lovely job. I think the dumbest one was towels. WTF?

Ironing towles?...... Is that even possible to do?.... Fluffy towels?... Did they iron the iron too? I bet your pets went running everytime the iron came out? "Whre's Tippy? Her tail looked alittle wrinkly" ....Maybe you should buy her a Sharpei Dog.

Well, I was never allowed to have pets. God forbid if hair got on something that was freshly ironed.
