When I started my deslobification process, I realized quickly that I have what I call Slob Vision. Some people call it Clutter Blindness. In today’s episode, I’m sharing things that I’ve realized cause Slob Vision and what I do to keep it from causing my home to fall into Disaster Status.

Finally, after 68 years and keeping house since married for the last 46+ years, I understand my Slob Vision.
I can see my husband has it also. His farm rigs, the barn, shops, collection of vehicles, etc. around the house, and especially in our garage can be difficult to navigate and find stuff. His desk. Oh, my.
I am currently working (for years) on getting my sewing room/expanded to the guest room recently in order so there are no boxes, excess to navigate around. I can see the uncluttered rooms, and get a shock daily. Now to make that vision real.
When you say, just do the dishes….it helped my husband see to do the same in the last year or more. He only followed my lead. I didn’t even have to say a word, and we had been unpleasant to each other about the dishes for decades.
I even have a photo he took of me doing the marathon dishes. Only now can I understand how that kept happening.
The book of the woman with memory loss: Yes, I’ve experienced not remembering my computer password that I used daily. I had my fingers remembering so well, that it shocked me that I wasn’t getting it.
I had to look it up, so as I watched me type it in on the numbers keypad, I said it allowed.
I don’t have any passwords that are the same, so I am consciously memorizing ones that I use often enough I should be able to learn them. I want to stay sharp. Otherwise, passwords are in a physical address book. Keeping passwords on a computer makes absolutely no sense.
It’s how my husband used to keep his, until his computer was compromised. After that I didn’t have any difficulty convincing him to put them in a folder. Not as organized as an address book as he just printed what he had on the computer and probably spent hours typing them in to print out. What did once until l I realized a penciled in address book was faster.
