Obsessive Complusivity

I don't wash my hands 300 times a day, and I don't check the door 34 times to see if it's locked... but I do have an OCD issue that I am aware of: not remembering if I closed the garage door. It's SO annoying. I've been sitting at my desk in the morning at work, and just had a gnawing uncertainty whether I closed the door or not.

Today I was about 1/4 of the way to work, and turned back to go check. I do this usually once or twice a week. Every time, so far, it's been closed.

I think I'm going to install a webcam in my garage - so I can check it and see if the door is indeed closed. Maybe I can do it such that I can check it from the internet access on my cell phone as I'm driving to work fretting about somebody getting into the house and letting my cat escape... the cat who hasn't been outside since I brought her in about 9 years ago.

AHHHHH!!! Did I unplug the iron this morning?!??!???!!?!?
