I have often been described as a total clean freak.
While this seems to be a bit in the pejorative, I have to agree with its accuracy.
I am indeed a person who likes to have their environment honestly clean, organized plus well kept. This is just who I am plus I have been this way for as long as I can remember. I even recall our parents trying to get me to ease up a bit on how fastidious I kept myself, our room plus our belongings. This must be a genetic level sort of thing. However, the reality is that one can’t keep an environment in a state of permanent cleanliness. So, I have to do the best I can not to get too weirded out when our home is less than perfect. A great example is the inside air within our home. Every one of us live in an area where the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C cooling is on much of the year. In order to reign in utility costs, the people I was with and I have sealed our condo extremely tight. This way, the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C treated air stays inside the house. The downside of this is the fact that much of the inside air seems to be just constantly recycled over plus again. This causes smell problems. And, where there are smell problems, there are germs. While I am not an outright germ-a-phobe, I am not a fan of them proliferating throughout our home. Since the people I was with and I can’t open the windows for fresh air while the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C cooling is on, I had to find another remedy. I found one in the whole home air cleaner. It is installed in the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C air handler plus kills all contaminants using UV light.
