[quote=Anonymous]I would have a leash put in a specific spot for the dog walker (like a hide a key).

My sister is in her mid 50s and can never find her car keys.  She doesn’t acknowledge her adhd like qualities, so doesn’t see an issue.  She just keeps repeating the song and dance of not being able to find her keys several times a week.  As an adult, I hung a hook by my door specifically for my keys and trained myself to obsessively put them there every time I come home.  I still have lots of bad habits that are in part b/c of my adhd, but i’m motivated go work on it.

Organizational strategies might help him, like a reminder on his phone to start the dishwasher or a big sticky note.  Leave a night diaper with your kid’s pj by the changing table.

The only thing really worth bringing up to him is leaving objects out that might actually be dangerous—like scissors etc.  you could say something like, “are you done with the box cutter.”

The other option is you take these items if he leaves them out, put them where he can’t find them and if he asks where the machete is, respond, “hmmm, where were you last using it?”[/quote]
