My dh has more closet space, shelving and drawers than any member in our house.  I only have one row of hanging shelving on my side of the closet–he has two.  I have the chest of drawers for my things–he has the entire dresser. 

Day before yesterday his upper hanging rack collapsed, sending everything that he’d had on that upper shelve hurtling to the floor, not to mention all the clothes which had been attached to it.  To make matters worse, the door opens into his side, so guess what?  I can’t get to my clothes.  Has he fixed this yet?

Would I be whining about it if he had?

“You know what the problem is?” he asks.

“Yes, I do.  You have too much stuff.”

“No.  You hang everything up.  You should put some things in the drawers.”

Take a deep breath to prevent myself from blowing up.  “The drawers are full.  Maybe you should try cleaning out your closet.  There’s lots of stuff in there that doesn’t fit anymore.”

“I’ll clean the closet out when I fix it, but you’re going to have to start hanging less stuff up.”

Excellent.  Instead of washing it, I’ll throw it away.  Talk about the best way to expedite laundry.
