    that reminds me of the time my husband (helped) fold clothes. I came home from work and he had folded all the clean clothes.
    They were stacked so nice on the couch. I picked up the first pile to put away and in it were a kitchen towel, dd underwear, his socks and 2 of my t-shirts. I asked him how he divided up the piles? He said he did it just like I did he folded and stacked one pile till it fell over then he would start another pile. LOL You just got to love them

    LOL on the folding laundry. One time at dinner out, fa was laughing with the other dad about folding men's undershirts, you know, beaters. That there was no way to fold them, they looked messy however you did it.

    "I" folded the laundry & I was very annoyed. I told him, I fold those for you & they are folded well. He & the other man just kept on laughing.

    Next time I folded clothes. Yup, ya got it. I just stuffed them in his drawer. He complained to mom. Mom chewed me. I just said, "What?, Dad said they were impossible to fold."

    :mrgreen:

    I'm just glad your M&Ms & garlic were in dif boxes!

    When I was a kid, I had to fold my daddy's "beater" undershirts too. I just wrapped them around my hand, slid them off and considered them folded. Neither he nor mom said anything so I guess it was okay. haha

    Certain men should not be allowed around washers and dryers. I came home from work one day to find all of the clothes had been washed. Silk shirts with jeans, and whatever else could be shoved into the washer. :hunf: All of the clothes (3 loads, should have been 5 or 6) were laying on top of the bed unfolded. I just pushed them off on his side of the bed and went to sleep. He told me later I didn't appreciate his efforts (?), and never attempted to do laundry again. I think he did that on purpose. :lol:

    When we moved out of NYC 12 years ago the company sent movers and this people wrapped the dishes in the drain still on it, the bathroom garbage, everything from the medicine cabinet, you name it. The boxes were not labeled either. It was fun to unpack.

    On our first move, the movers packed my bowling ball inside the glass aquarium. And it didn't break! On the next move, the kitchen trash was packed and shipped. That must be one of their favorite things to do, as if you don't have enough trash when you start unpacking.
