You have a creative husband. Most men do nothing except surf the channels on the remote. That is, the ones I know. I enjoyed your story.
Thanks for the post. Keep up the great work.

Thank you Carolyn, I could complain about my husband sitting around not doing anything. He wasn't geared up that way but he did sometimes help where wasn't appreciated.

LOL I had to laugh. I do understand. My husband retired about 10 years before me. We've had a few battles, but seems to have reached a stalemate. LOL I enjoyed reading.

Hello BethShelby, a fantastic Friday to you. I hope this finds you well. I enjoyed your story it was well written and highly relatable. I do believe that opposites attract but I also believe it's never easy....Great story, great job and have a great day!

Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
If it had been me, I could have coped with the organization of my clothes i think. After all the result was pretty, and you can find things by colour right? You know the colour of each item no? But the books... I have 4000 and if anyone messed with them they could be lost forever. No-one, but no-one touches my bookshelves that are scattered through the whole house.

Thank you Katherine, I have books in every room too, but I have one room with a whole wall of books. Now I read most everything on the computer. At least the computer has it organized where I can find what I'm looking for. I enjoyed our comments.

Comment from Jasmine Girl
Haha. My husband has retired for a few years now and he likes to organize the house, too. But he hasn't tried to organize my closet yet. My husband is handy but hasn't started any projects yet except making a table saw.
Well done.

Thank you for the review and comments. My husband's first project was a table saw so your's has something to work with. He'll likely get busy, but keep him out of your closet. LOL

Overly organized is a trait of ADHD. Does he join me in that plight?
Comment from Ric Myworld
LOL. Yes, you just never know what those husbands might get into if you leave them too much idle time. And I was the worst, if you can imagine that. LOL. Thanks for sharing.
