I go back to work today … My vacation plans included riding every day and getting my truck and trailer squared away for the upcoming show and clinic season. This is what happened last ... 
Where's the poo?
Not seeing it? Well, after cleaning the inside of the living quarters and then the outside, I couldn't stand that the horse compartment was so poopy. So I cleaned it before my vacation was over. This is why I don't have a bucket list or a list of written goals for the year. I have pretty serious OCD tendencies so anything that is written down must be checked off. Seriously. I will make myself physically ill (or die trying) in an attempt to clear my list. Even with no list, the idea that my trailer was clean except for the horse compartment was simply more than I could stand. So I dragged out those ~*^%$#^& mats and scrubbed the floor clean. I also scrubbed both sides of the mats. Those mats must weigh close to 75 pounds each. It was exhausting work, but it really needed to be done. And with a fresh layer of shavings on the floor, the trailer is now truly ready for the 2014 season. 
The "clean" only lasts for a moment ...
Yah for obsessive compulsive disorder behavior?

I think the only one who REALLY benefits from my OCD tendencies is my husband! Clean house, stocked refrigerator, dinner nightly, and so on, but in return, sometimes he gets a Looney Tunes wife. :0) Comments are closed.
