I like my house to be the opposite of my brain: disorganized, messy, and the opposite of everything mentioned here.
I discovered ORDER first, then added the last letters to make ORDERLY. SHIPSHAPE popped out next, and once I’d solved the span frame – conveniently located across the center of the board – the others fell into place in a neat and tidy manner.
