Doug

One of the most amazing traits about Doug is his ability to be so organized.  We saw this when he hit teenagehood and started keeping his room clean.  Not the typical teenager that is for sure.  So when he joined the military I knew he would fit in well there.  Organizational.
On our trip last fall to his house I could tell that it is definitely just part of his personality.  He can cook without making a mess (unbelievable I know).  He had four dogs in the house and yet the pet hair was mostly minimal.  His garage was organized.
Oh how I wish I could be like that.  It is not part of my personality.  I struggle with maintaining cleanliness.  I cook, I make a mess.  When we lift the little man off the floor if he looks like a cat it is time to vacuum.  And so it goes.
There are many things about Doug that I admire, but this trait is one I wish we shared.  And I don't think it can ever be learned.  It is just nature.  But for today in honor of Doug I worked on decluttering my kitchen counters.  At least it will look good and organized for a day or two.  :P
