1 Answer

Answer :

I would say I’m a 1.5. I have no natural tendencies toward neatness and it is a constant battle. All of the activities you listed, I would consider straightening up work. I have actually been thinking lately about hiring someone to get my house organized, but I don’t know if it would help, I think we probably just have too much stuff and need to get rid of some of it.
