I think it is very good to be a visual person in this case. I bet it would be a lot worse to be, say, aural. You'd be all "Well, I can HEAR the mess. It's under there SOMEWHERE." .-= Kate@And Then I Was a Mom´s last blog ..And to think that all Harvard is worried about is its endowment. =-.

I am also very disorganized, but knows where everything is. So I guess I’m visual too. And I’m probably a surface abuser too. However, if I showed you any pictures from some of the rooms in my house yours would look clean! Seriously. I always just blamed my lack of clutter control on my ADD. I am the same way as you as when I see too big of a mess, it overwhelms me and I put off doing anything about it. And you know what’s even worse about my problem? None of my neighbors seem to have this problem. AT. ALL. I can walk into any of their houses and it always looks perfect and nothing out of place. I want to move next door to you, you’ll understand the clutter and mess when you just bop over to say hi! And I wouldn’t feel so guilty about whatever clutter you may see.

I love this! I had a similar (though not as dramatic) aha moment yesterday looking at a Consumer Reports magazine. An article about organizing put people into categories of those who have to put everything away vs those who are “afraid they’re going to forget about stuff” if it’s not out. Yup, that’s me! And it actually had ideas specific for that type of person. Wheeee!!! Someone “gets” me! And now I see we’re kindred spirits.

I do have one thing to say about your bedroom corner and your laundry room. Hmmm….there appears to be lovely wall space for shelves. Just sayin…
