I think the older I get, the more obsessive I get about things being in order. When I clean, I'm like Stella. I call it top to bottom cleaning, and I take no prisoners. I tend to be absent minded though, and when I'm off in my own little world, I don't notice how messy my vultures are until I trip over stuff. Once I start tripping over things, I tend to obsess about getting them back in order. I do know my anxiety level is directly proportional to how organized my environment is - so I try to ward chaos off as much as possible, thus maintaining a calm happy me. Sadly, my vultures were born without that self-preservaton instinct that most animals have, and so they haven't yet picked up on clean = calm me.
