An autistic woman having a “spring clean” is actually just moving piles of clutter from one location to another, it has been rumoured.
Paige Thomas, 34, really should know what to do when faced with a mess she herself made - but settles for hyperventilating, then rearranging the mess into a slightly different mess.
Thomas explained: “I’m organising my heap of crap by colour, size and function. So far I’ve done one box full - and it only took me a day!”
“Throw stuff away?” Thomas continued. “Yeah, maybe.”
Thomas then refused to comment further, but clutched a seven-month-old empty moisturiser bottle to her, like she was cradling her firstborn.
Comments
those seven-month-old empty moisturizer bottles aren't going to upcycle themselves! (they will sit for indeterminate amount of time gathering dust while I decline to work on them but also can't bring myself to discard such useful containers)
