Once Upon a Time I Had a Dream…

Once upon a time, when I was working 60+ hours a week in the Corporate World, I always somehow managed to keep my house or apartment spotlessly clean.  It was second nature, making sure things were put away.  Possibly bordering on OCD with everything having a place and everything in its place.
