I prefer both. But for the past 6 years I have often struggled. Clean is a definite for me. I have hygiene issues so when I see things that have been cleaned lazily it makes me feel sick. It sounds weird but I almost prefer dirty to half cleaned. Because dirty gets cleaned. But half cleaned only ever gets half cleaned. And so is always half dirty. I used to be awesomely psycho. And two weeks ago I was back there. But now I'm working my wwary back slightly. I struggle to clean with clutter. But I hate dirty. So it's a catch 22. I know I'm messed up about housework. Does that help?
