This reminds me of my husband and his side of the basement. He told me I had to stay out of his side of the basement it was fine the way it was. I almost wanted to hire someone to clean it out so I could honestly say ‘I’m not touching it!’<br /> Then I lucked out, we need some work done to a basement wall so we were forced to clean it up! I cleaned, organized and removed useless stuff and he loved it. He actually has room to work on projects now.<br /> Mary</p> I love it! This reminds me of my husband and his side of the basement.

All too often, it becomes easy to discuss the folks who aren't there and/or place the blame on those who are not at the table. Great sentiment - and a terrific way of saying it without accusing.
