Introduction	For nine months of my life, I was an organized neat-freak. That was, of course, when I met my husband, so he was under the impression I was actually an organized neat-freak. Surprise, honey! Not really the case. These are my adventures about what it takes to clean and organize my home to magazine showcase standard (think Real Simple), and my attempts to maintain said level of pristine-ness. Some endeavors are more successful than others.
