Okay, so we’re never going to throw away Grandma’s china or those super-plush towels from our wedding registries, but we do dream about tossing them out from time to time! Nesties sounded off on the things their spouses leave around that drive them crazy --what would you like to toss?
- The wads of paper -- receipts, business cards, scribbled phone numbers, and other flotsam and jetsam -- from his wallet that he leaves ALL OVER the house!
- Dirty dishes that could easily be tossed in the dishwasher.
- His drawers -- he leaves ’em all over the house.
- Wet towels strewn throughout the bathroom and the bedroom!
- My husband breeds water bottles. Every day I find two or three empty plastic water bottles around the house in random places. They’re like rabbits!
- Musical instruments and all of their paraphernalia -- basses, guitars, amps, picks, lyrics -- you name it!
- Tools strewn everywhere. And the job half-finished.
- The 10 remotes that control one TV -- and all of them are on our coffee table.
- Beauty products everywhere! We have a double vanity (his and hers), yet my wife’s products (makeup, hairsprays, lotions, etc.) have taken over the bathroom. I can’t even find my toothbrush.
- Bras and lingerie hung over the bathtub. I love to see this stuff on (and coming off) my wife, but I don’t need company when I’m taking a shower.
Have a few good ones to add to the mix? Post yours below!
