This is what I do with MY kids, big and small...

For every piece of clothing I pick up off the floor, I remove one of their beloved toys...

For my DH, I pick up a shirt? He loses his baseball hat.

I pick up a pair of socks? Buh-bye Rolling Stones Magazine.

Jeans? He loses a golf club.

I pick up underwear? The remote goes missing.

I'll get the old "Hey - where's the remote?"
"I don't know - I was too busy picking up your underwear to keep tabs on it."

Easy peasy.

Either that, or you can toss all of his socks and underwear in with the reds.

Hey Janey,

So you can't stand the mess and hubby knows you will cave...men...grrrr..how they can be so wonderful and terrible at the same time.

How about a trash bag to put them in and when he is all out of clean unmentionables (how is that for an old time word), then simply hand him the bag and point to the washing machine? You should also have the biggest most evil grin on your face while doing this. Then go pour yourself your favorite drink and plop yourself down on the couch.

Kind regards,
Dickons

Hey Dickons!

Good suggestion! Out of sight out of mind (re. his dirty laundry) might help me stand my ground!! :-)

Thanks!

Janey,

Call me slow but I just noticed that you are a hockey fan!!! I'm a canuck fan and was disappointed they did not make it further in the playoffs but am still watching the final round.
