I love my family to bits but their disorganisation is rather stressful, as I try my hardest to be organised as that's the way I've always been and I've tried to help others live life the same way as it's a better way of life and leads to less stress because you're often prepared for whatever happens because it's been planned ahead of time.
Not always the case but I've found being prepared equals less stress. My wife isn't very prepared and our son and daughter are following in her footsteps, which is fair enough but the families lack of organisation is distressing.
This morning we were getting the kids ready for school and we should have been out the door by quarter to eight and then at the school by half past eight - far from it! We got the kids there just before nine!
My daughter couldn't find her books and bag, my son wasn't dressed, then they ate slowly and were messing about and then my wife couldn't find her car keys.
Good lord!
I don't mean to moan, I love my family dearly but I'm sure another autistic individual can appreciate my position here. As someone who is nearly always organised from the get go, all this disorganisation is horrifying to witness and go through.
