I have never understood how a little fabric on the table can be such a problem. He also doesn't like it when I fold laundry there. He fusses about someone "coming in" in and seeing it. I maintain it could be a lot worse than seeing and smelling clean laundry and fabric (I use lavender Best Press on my fabric and it smells heavenly). We will just never agree on this subject.
I wonder if you could include him in a few household chores and ask him to help you fold the laundry so that it could be put away quickly before anyone comes...that should stop the moaning quite quickly.
