While you are out, will your dh/so clean up?
Dh will often do the dishes if I haven't gotten them done and I've gone out.

in a word...nope.
Dh simply doesn't notice things like that. The house could be smoldering piles of rubbish all over and the man would come in, head straight for the coulch and pass out. Growing up his home was never tidy, so he doesn't notice messes now.~~ Missy ~~

Yea,but I guess because when I leave I say..."And I better NOT come home to a messy house or SOMEONE will be in BIG trouble.."
I come home and there is not a toy or hair outta place

But I've came home and Steve has already folded clothes,swept the floor,stuff like that,...

Very unlikely. Even if I ask him to do some things by the time I get back, he'll come up with some excuse as to why he couldn't or didn't.

No. I don't think he doesn't do it purposefully. I think he just doesn't think to do it. If I ask him to, however, he will.

Same here. Can't tell you how many times I heard, "I was going to clean that up, but......"Originally posted by mizniteowl

Sometimes. I'm not normally gone long enough to do more than grocery shop. He'll pick up the living room or make the bed.

My dh will pick up, do dishes and sometimes vacume while I am out. I am a stay at home and I think this is how he keeps me from slacking off. When I fist started to stay home my kids were babies. If I had a bad day he would come home make the bed, do the dishes and whatever else didn't get done. I would feel so guilty it did not happen very often.
My dh will aslo try to do the laundry and believe me this is something we don't want him to do. He mixes all the clothes together and over packs my new machines. And what can I say when he is just trying to help me out?

Not unless I tell him to do certain things or I leave him a note. He will not do it on his own. There can be a sink full of dishes when I leave, and most likely they will be there when I get home.

Yes, very often. He likes to tidy up the place.

Yes, he is very good around the house I have trained him well
He even uses all my frugal tricks I have shown him and as long as he knows where things " live", he will put them away
If I told you how good he REALLY is, you'd all be jealous
