Obeying the Door Prize Lady

Obeying the Door Prize Lady at ASlobComesClean.com

I’m a rule follower.

(Most of the time.)

My stomach gets all knotty when I see someone stick his hand outside of the moving kiddie train, and I always count my items before I get in the express checkout lane.

But really, I do NOT have to do what this stupid door prize ticket from who-knows-when tells me to do.

(And let’s all take a moment to grieve the death of the delusion that it’s possible to be a Clutter Slob and not a Dirty Slob. That’s dust that was UNDER the clutter.)

No matter how logical and OBVIOUS my decision to throw away this ticket  . . . I felt just a little (delightfully) rebellious when I did.

    Yes! Rebel against the rules. There are no rules when it comes to your stuff…you decide how you want to live with it…or without it.

    I belong to a philanthropic group called Eastern Star (we are in the Masonic family) and we have 50/50 raffles and other ‘ticket’ raffles all the time to raise money for Cancer Research among other things… and I find these things ALL OVER the place! When it comes time for me to be Worthy Matron (the President of the local Chapter) I am going to use rock that have numbers put on them and then paper with the corresponding numbers to pull from…

    I think the “Keep this Coupon” people are second cousins to the ones who make those darned “Do Not Remove” pillow tags. I’m always afraid the Pillow Tag Police are going to show up at my door and fine me, or take away my scissors.

A Slob Comes Clean is the completely honest (and never-ending) story of my deslobification process. As I find ways to keep my home under control, I share the truth about cleaning and organization methods that actually work for a real-life slob. And I'm funny.
