I’ve never been the most tidy person. Even as a kid, it seemed to me that trait was innate in some people, including one of my close friends who at 8 years old would help me organize books and toys at sleepovers. And as an adult, those habits are still apparent, and her home is ready for guests at any moment (where I need a nice heads up before my home feels remotely acceptable to others eyes). I’ve read a lot of books and asked my tidiest friends their advice, and a lot of the same things seems to come up.
