Ok I admit I have OCD so bad when it comes to organization. When it comes to my job I need to know exactly what I need to do for my clients. I always need to know how exactly my clients day goes and in what order. I am one that hates the thought of just wing it.
So I heard on a local radio station of a place that is a care center for the elderly that is just ran during the day. Family members can bring their loved ones there to be taken care of for the day or a few hours, and that gives them some "me" time that they can go shopping meet a friend for lunch and not worry about their loved ones. Also the care center has great activities and they can socialize as well.
Love the thought of this place, but I do not think that my OCD would ever allow me to feel comfortable working in that enviroment. Even though I am sure they have a lengthy enrollment process and have charting to let each care giver know and understand the individuel I could not go into work every morning and not be able to organize my day because I would not know who might be walking through the doors that day and what are their needs extra. Sounds like their would be no ryme or reason to your day. You just have to wing it.
AH, yes, I identify with the thrill of making everything sparkly clean and neat!
LOL when my genes were sequenced, this one got missed. I clean because I have to, and only because I have to. Thank goodness there are people like you and the OP who go the extra mile and make up for us minimalists!
