Feb. 10, 2006 - Am I normal?
Okay, So maybe I am crazy. Maybe everyone doesn't feel the need to color-code their children or their clothesline, but I really am getting better. I no longer have to take the clothes down if I find a shirt when I am in the skirt section. I just wait and hang it up in the next load. Thats improvement, right? Am I normal? I know it may be a little unrealistic to expect everything to be just so with eight children, but I can't seem to stop spacing my coathangers exactly half an inch apart when I walk by the closet, which of course is color-coded. I am big white.(Caleb is little white as we have run out of colors) Did you ever realize how hard it is to find multiple colors for things. It was fine with the first four, pink, red,blue and green, yellow is even okay, but do you know how hard it is to find orange. I may sound like a lost cause but the Bible says that I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength, so I will get better. I probably will always color-code though because it really makes life easier, unless of course, my red child is wearing blue, and then I don't know who he is.
The Bible also says to let others know your weakness so they can pray for you. So............

I love it! Another neurotically organized person like me! I can't identify with the color-coding, but I do hang my wash by types of clothing. I load the dishwasher in a certain order, too. My friends have nicknamed me Martha Stewart. LOL
I noticed that you are a fellow Mainer! I love to "meet" other folks from the Pine Tree State at HSB. Makes me smile! :-)
