Re: Children VS Pets?
No way!Originally posted by Dream Ladyomg Robyn!! let's see...decisions, decisions. been there, done that with both, so how about NEITHER! lol Actually another choice would be hubby. Now if you threw in my hubbys clutter, I can tell you he would be the first to go!! (This is an actual picture of his stuff before he went out of town and the second picture the day he came back) Yes, I decided to clean the garage and rented a 30yard dumpster. Took me 5 days to throw all of his stuff away! He didn't balk to much, because he knew it was either his stuff, or HIM! lol

Before Cleaning...Ceiling to Floor, front to back...stacked with stuff
.jpg)
After cleaning: Wa La ! One double car garage turned into a his and hers side with cabinets down the middle! My side is the bigger side. I figured if I gave him less room, he couldn't clutter so much. This was 1 year ago. Today??? His side is all cluttered again. Myside is clean. I love this 50/50 marriage stuff! lol
This is a before and after picture.............I don't believe ya? Is this the same room? Jeez.........I'm in with the rest..........I need to hire you........you da woman Cindy! Now you have to do it again? Make his spot even smaller this time.Comment

Re: Children VS Pets?
Women are cruel. I mean seriously, a few feet of clutter and you want to get rid of it when we aren't looking?
You are aware that it takes us guys years to accumulate all that, right? And even though we don't have a vague memory of what might have been in there, it's still very painful seeing it all disappear. This, ladies, is the reason beer exists; to help us guys numb ourselves to this whole process.
It's also the reason I'm not married and only share my house with a cat - as long as he has food and water, he doesn't give a **** how much crud he has to wade through to get to it.
Don't get me wrong, I love women and I'd love to be married again someday, but that ain't gonna happen until God sends me a woman who won't point out my faults all the time. I think I'm gonna die single. LOLComment

Re: Children VS Pets?
Hi Racefan! Nice to see your smiling face every now and then!! You are the smart one..not being married (in my opinion), especially to someone like me! I use to participate on a forum for people with OCPD and my particular tatics in dealing with my hubby, did not go over well on that forum. lol....I was RIGHTFULLY subject to alot of crticism for throwing his stuff away like I do. I'm mean and I admit it. lol Now, if my husband only drank beer in order to numb himself from my domestic organization skills, maybe that would help him with this painful process. Actually he has always taken this very well. People who have OCPD, and who recogonize it and accept it, actually don't like this particular personality trait about themselves, but their brains are wired such, it's like they just can't throw anything out. I'm talking about a real horder not a collector, there is a big difference. Hubby actually appreciates it when I "CLEAN" as long as I tell him where it is. I try to be careful about what I throw away, but if it doesn't work or isn't being used within a year....it's gone. LOL And actually, I drink the beer to numb myself when I start cleaning!!! lmaoCindy SmentowskiComment

Re: Children VS Pets?
I come from a long line of hoarders, and struggled with it for years.Originally posted by Dream Lady
Now I have sort of drifted over to the other side of the spectrum, and have turned hyperorganized.
I love being able to find things; what a concept!
I do find, however, that if I find things starting to pile up.. I get depressed, and having a goog clean out makes me feel better.. my family thinks I have gone off the deep end..LOLComment

Re: Children VS Pets?
Hey Liz..........I'm right there, I am a clutterbug, I can always make something out of something, my arts room...........whooa! Messy, messy and when I make something...........hmmm big mess! I have 2 rooms like this and I clean them every so often, but they go right back to clutter looking as soon as I start painting or building whatever. So it's not just guys.......lol Funny to rib them about it though.Comment

Re: Children VS Pets?
LOL
But you know what is the coolest part about it?
When you are painting or building or creating something and it is in process and all over the place and you look at it and think oh god what have I done..... and then inspiration strikes and you dive in and stuff starts flying everywhere, and hours pass unnoticed, and then, viola! a wonderful thing is built/drawn/painted/created and suddenly there is no mess anymore, just this wonderful thing you did..
aaaahhhhhh how cool is that!Comment
