Are you a perfectionist to a fault?

Not only does my need to have everything in it's place and done just right, drive my family crazy but it drives me crazy as well! It literally causes me stress to watch my husband do chores.( The ones that I haven't yet band him from doing.) The whole time I'm thinking about how he's not doing it right, or atleast not the way I want it done. I rarely sit down during the day because I like to keep things completely clean and with 4 kids in the house that means your constantly on the move. There are things that I could leave and only do once a day verses once an hour, but I worry that someone will show up at my home and see it's a mess. That they will think I'm lazy."She doesn't work outside of the home, so shouldn't her home be clean?" I can't even leave that house unless, it's clean first. I wish I could get over this conpulsive need to have everything just so, because as a single person it would be fine, but as a wife and a mother it is no fun. It cuts into time with my family, and causes unnesscary agruments.
