TEN: You found your earrings that you've been missing for a year in your underwear drawer, however it was filled with T-shirts at the time.
NINE: It took you 20 minutes this morning to find the cereal, although it's a big blue box with a huge orange tiger on it. Somehow it was next to the washing detergent, and you wonder why your laundry is sometimes crispy with a crunch.
EIGHT: Vaccuming is a rare activity that you are only driven to do once a month, after you've tripped on a huge dust bunny and fell flat on your face to actually taste the dust.
SEVEN: The term 'Make the Bed', always leaves you wondering..."Make it into what??"
SIX: Your excessive shoe collection is half in the closet and the rest are lined across your bedroom wall like an army ready to march into battle and your mother calls you Imelda Marcos.
FIVE: Once a paper is removed from your usual line of sight, (ie coffee table, stuck to fridge) you've lost it forever, and will only find it 15 years from now, when the subject of the paper has either died, sued you, or is no longer valid.
FOUR: Sometimes when you look at your closet you feel like crying, but instead you go out shopping to soothe your misery. Then you stuff the new clothes into the overcrowded closet to add new woes to your next closet check up. Vicious cycle.
THREE: You've lost a child/pet/spouse at least once and later found them under a pile of clothes/shoes/towels. They looked very resentful.
TWO: You've only bought a set of six plates, so that you have an excuse for not hosting dinners/parties/emergency meetings for more than four people at a time.
And the number ONE reason, that proves that you're definately not a domestic Goddess???
You buy lots of home magazines and recipe books, and day dream of the pictures of immaculate, organized homes and neat, beautifully folded clothes in closets, and the quick ten minute dishes, only to find that you have no adequate storage space to put them away and end up tripping on them for months.

I have now over-stuffed my closets, took over my married sisters closets and shoe racks.. I have recently moved on to people's beds and couches for extra storing room. When I build up the courage to throw some of my clothes away, they look at me and cry, the way they cry when I decide not to pack them when I am going on holiday.
SHOES, CLOTHES AND FOOD DO TALK TO ME. WE ARE HAPPILY MARRIED.
