Hi Maria,

Had to share! I finally got husband to reorganize the spare bedroom closet. Well, actually it was mostly me, but since it was all his stuff, I gave him the options of keep, donate, or toss. We had moved in here in '95, and I swear that closet was seldom opened.

I went and bought several clear storage bins. I so love those. You can see what you're looking for without a half hour of digging. Then I took everything out of there, and piled it in the living room to give us motivation to get it done. I spoke gently to him, told him if he didn't want to throw away a thing, it's OK. I just want to organize.

And that worked! He tossed a great deal. We found some of his grandfather's possessions. I told him, let's put some of this out here where you can see and enjoy it, and about four things we agreed on. He set aside a box to send to his oldest son. He found a large box of slides, from a major family trip when he was a teenager. I'm going to search for a technology business to transfer them into; perhaps a photo storage stick if I can.

I lost track of how much he tossed. He was really good about it. Our local Goodwill store scored big too. We had some comical moments trying to recall when he was a size medium...and whose fault it was that he no longer is. I lost that one...something about me trapping him with good cooking.

I gained so much space in that closet...room for other things, such as extra folding chairs for his poker nights, if they ever resume! and hanging space! I moved all of our winter coats and jackets into that closet. We are in south Florida, so they don't see the outside very often. That made about four feet of beautiful space in our main closet!

One more added benefit...before I closed the doors, I took everything light out of the room and cleaned my heart out from the baseboards to the ceiling fan. It looks marvelous! The whole project honestly took about two weeks, but I am SO HAPPY with it.

In Closing

'The secret to a happy marriage is if you can be at peace with someone within four walls, if you are content because the one you love is near to you, either upstairs or downstairs, or in the same room, and you feel that warmth that you don't find very often, then that is what love is all about.' --Bruce Forsyth

I'd love to hear from you.
