Neat Freak

Are you a neat freak? Do you clean a lot? Or do you just not care so much?

I have this terrible curse where I'm a neat freak but I'm also incredibly lazy, so I'll sit there and be like "ew this place is a mess" all day and not do anything about it. It's pretty awful.

I am also a crappy housekeeper. Though, I have been getting better as time goes on.

Oh god my house.

I'm very much a neat freak and I'm amazing at housekeeping. When I say that, I mean it literally. Like, I'm the best ever at keeping a house clean. And then... it magically gets messy from no fault of my own. And I'm all like, "Who's not cleaning as you go?" :mad2:

And yeah, I'm super lazy when it comes to actually getting around to make it pretty again.

At work I'm a neat freak. but at home I am nothing close to one.

Nah I'm not very neat. But it's just, I need more space for stuff.

You and me both, Pike.

I half-cleaned up my place this evening, but laziness is beating out my will to clean the other half.

My place is neat except when u head to my room. It looks like a tornado came thru a few times.

I'm usually extremely OCD about keeping the entire house spotless and organized. Unless I'm working on something... and then there's tools and random crap strewn all over the place, even in rooms I'm not using.

I am a clutterbug. One of those people who lives in "organized chaos." I've actually become much cleaner since spending the last 7 years living with my [mostly] neat-freak husband. If it weren't for him, I'm sure I would've become the kind of person where you have to navigate around my piles in order to get anywhere in my house. I have a lot of stuff, and my desk can turn into a disaster, but I'm mostly well-organized.

A lazy neat freak. Everything is usually in a place along with things that are associated to it to sort through it later. I can't stand there being a big clutter or mess of things in my personal or work spaces for too long.

I like having things tidy. However, if things get messy, I may or may not tidy it quickly. Depends on how lazy I'm feeling at that time. But, within like... a day of things being a mess, I will have tidied everything away. It's probably mostly to do with my flat not being huge, so if the untidy is allowed to go on for too long, the place just looks like a tip.

Also, we have people over to the flat fairly frequently - cannot have an untidy household when you've got guests. I remember visiting other students' houses/flats and being the most uncomfortable around all their mess. I genuinely did not understand how they could live the way they did. But I hear that's common for students, being generally untidy.

there are presently more shirts on the couch, bedroom floor, bathroom floor, bed, and back seat of my car than in the laundry basket.

I'm currently living in a student house which has a spare bed and freezer (that works, I'm told) in the living room and a toilet that's held together by a plastic bag. It's not my house, though, I'm basically squatting in an empty room as their tenancy lasted longer than my own house, allowing me to carry on working. I love this house. They also have a dog, they're not allowed pets..

I'm incredibly untidy, I call it organised chaos though; I always know where everything is when it's a mess.

I tried being clean once.
