I am all tackled out this week. So, we are having a guest tackler today. This week, without any prompting from me, Rich decided to clean his side of the closet. When he announced that he was going to do it I told him to get some pictures. Funny thing is, that didn’t even surprise him. A year ago if I had told him to take pictures of a messy before closet and a neat after closet he would’ve thought I was crazy.
Anyhoo, I present you with Rich’s side of the closet before:
I actually don’t think it’s that bad. I was having a hard time putting his clean clothes away due to lots of old clothes taking up space. The floor is a mess and the stuff on the top was always falling down. But, I admit I was surprised that Rich thought it was bad enough that it needed cleaning.
And here are the after shots:
Nice and neat on the top with plenty of room for new piles.
Nice and neat on the bottom with plenty of room to throw stuff that doesn’t have a home.
And now that Rich cleaned out his old clothes he has decided that it will be necessary for him to go shopping to fill up all of that empty space. Guess I should clean my side too, so I can go shopping!
Check out 5 Minutes for Mom to see what everyone else is tackling this week.

Yeah, isn’t it wonderful when the men actually do the tackling for us? Maybe Rich might want to call Gino (that would be my husband) and give him a couple of pointers. That would be really great. And in the meantime you could head over to my blog and sign up for the bloggy giveaway
Happy Tuesday! Or, late Monday I should say LOL.
