Yes, I Know I'm Anal ...

... because I fold my carrier bags. I can't help myself, I've done it for years. I assure you it's so they fit in the drawer neater rather than being scrunched up in an untidy heap.

... because I face up my cans in the larder and keep all the rice and pasta on one shelf and the cans on another and line up the cereal boxes in size order and face them out so you can read what the boxes are.

... because I can't bear to stack the Wii games with the names upside down.

... because I have to fold the towels the same way and stack them up neatly in the airing cupboard and also fold the mattress sheet inside the duvet cover and put in the pillowcases too. What's wrong with that? It's a whole bedset inside the duvet cover so you don't have to go hunting around for the other bedding. I think it's pretty ingenious myself.

... because I had four children and all because I thought the car looked odd with three children in the back.

Nah, only kidding on the last one - I always wanted four children.

Am I the only one here bordering on OCD? Do any of you have any quirks you'd like to share?

I don't see this as a problem, i do exactly the same!!! I could add a few more, the list is endless. And the funny thing is that i have noticed that it is rubbing off on Katie and i have to laugh when she does something that i would naturally do. It is all about being in control and having everything neat and tidy and in its place!!! So no comments from me!
