Bluto Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 I'm not mentioning any names (cough* Mrs. Blutarsky *cough), but SOMEone in our household is known for not fully closing drawers. I don't say anything anymore; I just close them when I see them. Is anyone else bugged by seeing a drawer that isn't fully closed? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gchs_uk9 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Same at my house. My wife is terrible about it and I have to play clean up constantly. I don't complain though because I'm sure her list of complaints about me is a mile long! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumper_Dad Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 We have a closet in the hallway that is for sheets and towels. That door is left open by my wife and daughter constantly. I probably close it at least 5 times a week 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjs4470 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I'm the "leaves drawers open" person in our house. I have no explanation why I don't close drawers, I just don't. I'm the same way with cabinets in the kitchen. I have ZERO OCD tendencies, and would be just as happy living in chaos as I am living in complete order.

Beechwoodfan Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I know a guy who cannot go to sleep unless all the drawers are firmly closed in his bedroom. Needless to say, his wife sometimes puts an item away, right before bed leaving a teeny gap. He jumps right up to shut it. You drawer/cabinet closers would have a heart attack if you saw me cooking Thanksgiving dinner! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 No issues with doors around my house. But my daughters are very big on not turning out lights when they leave a room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one of those, but add to that doors on kitchen and bath cabinets, lids on jars and medicine, bags of snacks not closed up, etc. You'd think after 44 years I'd be used to it......nah-baby-nah. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nees1212 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I only have 1 drawer that drives me nuts if it's not closed, and that's the drawer that houses our garbage cans in the kitchen. Easy access for the pup when it's open, and no-one closes it fully. I feel like I close it 10 times a day at minimum. Now, if we want to talk doors being open, I live in a house full of heathens that leave it open when doing their business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between my kids and my wife, our house it lit up light a Christmas tree at night if I don't shut them all off before bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights aren't really a problem here, especially since all my kids have moved out. Most of the lights in my house are connected to a smart hub, so if anything is left on, I can easily turn it off with an app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use a Nest thermostat that is tied to my phone so I would imagine it is similar. What brand do you use as a smart hub? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDeuce Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 I'm usually the one that leaves them open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
