I do cringe, however, at making the bed "as soon as one gets up." Bedsheets need to air out a bit before being slung back into the airless made-up state. I make mine up after my shower.

I tend to be really compulsive about "policing for broken windows". I look around my space and I like everything to have its place. In our personal lives, I think everyone has to figure out their own system (some people have no trouble finding what they're looking for even when surrounded by clutter). In public and shared spaces though, I can definitely see the argument for keeping a certain level of cleanliness. Our surroundings can have a profound impact on the quality of our time, much like angry voices are much less pleasant to be around than happy laughter. Thank you for sharing this. .-= Daphne´s last blog ..<a href="http://daphneanddonald.blogspot.com/2009/10/own-your-way.html" rel="nofollow">Own Your Way</a> =-. This is a really interesting post!

There are times when I definitely crack the window on purpose just so I no longer have something pristine to lose. :( I have some of the same habits Ian.

I recognise this in my own life - I just need to leave the washing up for later and next I look it's piled up and my apartment is a mess! I even have a real broken window. I broke it 2 years ago when I was decorating. Never got round to fix it. .-= Ian | Quantum Learning´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.quantumlearning.pl/for-what-greatness-were-you-born" rel="nofollow">For What Greatness Were You Born?</a> =-.

One day I will cross the threshold. Until then I'll just tell others what they should do. :) The birthday was great, thanks for the nice wishes. I have a tendency to be perpetually almost organized.
