[quote=Anonymous]Lack of clutter.  Overall I think we have a nice home by the standards on this thread including nice furniture, inexpensive but original artwork and so on.  Not high end, but nicely put together, except that DH thrives on clutter.

Rather than put his keys in the bowl by the front door, he leaves them on the counter, his wallet on his dresser and his sunglasses somewhere else.  We keep the dog's stuff all in one place, but he wants to keep spare leashes and poop bags by every door in the house so that it is more convenient.  I've bought storage containers for the multiple tools related to his hobby, but he doesn't make an effort to put everything back when he's done since in his words "it's easier to just have it all there when I need it rather than putting it away every time".  When he's done charging his phone, rather than putting the charging cord back in the drawer he leaves it sitting out since he's sure we'll need it later that day.  He claims I want a house out of a decorating magazine. I just want a house that looks put together and not with crap on every surface.

That's my input to this thread, polished and grown-up requires some level of neatness.  [/quote]
