O.C.D. and proud to be

Yes, I am O.C.D. with a splash of A.D.D.; and proud of it. Some of the positives of being O.C.D. are: 
  • you are never late (but incredibly early sometimes)
  • your laundry is always clean
  • the lights and appliances are never on when you leave for vacation (although you will turn around half way to the airport to check again to see you did indeed turn them off)
  • you never lose your keys (although it will kill you that one time they are misplaced)
  • the garage door is never left open when you go to bed (although you will check it five times before actually slipping under the covers)
  • work at the employer is always meticulously completed (although you'll have a hard time delegating the trust in someone else doing a similarly thorough job)
  • everything else in general (self, home, landscape, transportation, toys) is well maintained; although the neighbors are going to get a talking to if they aren't keeping up with the lawn cutting
The last topic leads me to a good news story of the O.C.D. world. I sold my '03 Silverado to nephew Jackson back in 2015 and he recently posted pictures of the old lady stretching her legs at a local rally. Besides a needed tweak to the transmission, she is still riding (and looking) tough. There is nothing wrong with treating your ride right and coddle her I did. It wouldn't surprise me if she makes it to 2023.
O.C.D., that is me!
