I asked DH if he would clean out a stuffed hall closet for me. He doesn't mess around wondering if something is too good to get rid of. I left and when I came home the closet was empty. Not a thing left in it. I didn't even ask what he did with the stuff, all I know is it's gone. :-D :-D :-D

LOL, great idea if you could do it, i would be worrying for weeks, if he tossed out something i needed, even if i had not used it in years.

Sounds like how my boys clean. They cleaned the basement. I looked out in time to see the biggest bondfire of my life with a couch on top! I don't know what is gone I am afraid to look. They keep threatening to do it again!

Now thats how I declutter!

Oh no! I don't have hubby do any decluttering. I'd have nothing left in my house!!!

Mine is the opposite. He won't let me de-clutter anything because HE would have nothing left. Honestly, I would love to de-clutter, but when only one of you is on board with it, it doesn't work. I'd love to have a dumpster in my driveway and pitch stuff into it off the deck!

Oh I could never do that. If I let DH declutter nothing would be left in the house except fishing gear! :lol:

I wish my DH would do that. If i ask him to clean his dresser off it takes weeks it to get done cause he has to go thru everything with a fine toothed comb. Drives me crazy.
