What household chores are you a bit neurotic about?

Asked by tedibear (19304points) June 4th, 2011

Mine is laundry. If I’m not the one who sorts the laundry, I get a little twitchy. I have to restrain myself from re-sorting it! I’m grateful to have a husband who even does laundry, so I try to not undo the good that he is doing. I do not for the life of me know what his sorting criterion are! It’s the only thing that he does around the house that I look at and think, “WTF?” When it’s time to go from the washer to the dryer, I have a specific timing for it. (I want to put the new wash load in right after I have moved the first load into the dryer. My goal is to catch the dryer still warm when I need to switch loads.) And hanging things that come out of the dryer must be done neatly. None of this sloppy hanging!

Other chores though – meh! Anybody who wants to vacuum, dust or clean the bathroom, do it whatever way you want.

What’s your household hang-up? What must be done a certain way so that you don’t twitch?
