[quote=Anonymous]OP here. 
We're kind of half messy and half clean people. We all clean up when the mess gets to the point one of us can't stand it. 
I am bad of putting thing back but I am good of find a place to put thing away when it first gets home. My spouse always put things back to where it belongs but never get a place for new stuff, especially collectible things. Those can end up on the computer desk, counter or wherever it is first landed for months to years. My spouse used to put something that needed to be done in the middle of room door to the hallway as a reminder and it drove me nut because I stepped on it easily at night any time. I complained and it is gone. I think it is fair for me to change my habit and put things back to its place and I can imagine it is the same for my spouse. I just can't figure out way to do it effectively so it happens every time. However I did not like my stuff to be threw away and this kind of action to make me resentful.

I did try the box idea but it doesn't work. Thing will just pile up in the box but it keeps it in as it is less messy than scatters every where. We have a toddler and that is why I put thing on the counter so she can't reach it. We have no gate in the house. I know it is dangerous but we are trying to teach her boundaries without gate. We always knows where she is. I will try putting thing on the side of stairs if it is not safety concern.

To the PP at 6:04 yesterday, I am really bad of imagining things. It doesn't give me concern to imagine something happens so it won't work. I know this because my spouse is pretty good at that and often escalate things to life threaten like your suggestion in our conversation to get my attention but it never works and it annoys me every time.
