What I learned today

“I hate people touching my mess”

I remember growing up with my grand mother telling me “never touch the stuff in my sewing room” – Why? because she knows where everything is – even if it looks like a mess to me.

The older I get I am of the same opinion – while my mom and my kid’s fingers might be itching to just pack and tidy up my area – I get annoyed when they move stuff.

I say to them “I know that the scissors is under that bit of paper,  I know where to find my brads,  I know where the last scrap of paper I use is place …. and if you touch it – you just mess up my system”.

It might not look like a system, but it works for me…

Anyone else feels the same about their mess?
