Aloha, From personal experience: My husband is sighted. I think it is an individual person problem. I finally moved my husband and all his paper and computers to a room where I can close the door and nobody ever sees his according to him, "organized mess." As for who should put things away, well, my theory in this house is that if you bring it in it's yours and therefore it's your responsibility. If it sits around too long, I put it in his office, in any somewhat availble place. You probably need to know that we have a 4 bedroom house with a 24 by 24 family-room that is my office and a livingroom the size of a 3 car garage. Plenty room for two people and one cat. I can't imagine what it would be like if the kids were still at home. Oi! Betsy
