My husband and I stay out of each others storage space. We each have to keep our own spaces cleaned up. When I fold cloths he has to put his stuff away and vice versa.
Something we started 40 years ago and continue. He felt it was his private space and I have just honored that, he honors my space.
If we decide something is shared space we work that out.

Next time, buy a cabinet with a lock!

Woulda, coulda, shoulda.......... shoulda put all your stuff away before that shower. LOL Go get another cabinet and put your stash away FIRST before you go do something else.

We divided our "work room" in half...no lines painted on the floor, but nothing sneaks over the invisible centre line! We can still spend time together...he paints and draws, I quilt and catch up here. Works a treat.

There is a reason why possession is 9/10ths of the law. I would repossess if proper payment is not made.

When you are ready to sew, just wheel it into the sewing room and dig in!

What a great idea!

Fairness has nothing to do with is... it's all about physics.. you know... Nature abhors a vacuum???

I don't think it was very nice and certainly not fair. My husband (of 46.5 years)and I respect each others' space and we share very nicely, too. Why don't you tell her how you feel and let her know you want it back.
