Your husband sounds like me! Although, we now live in a smaller house than we used to so I've now got myself into a habit of putting things away after I've used them. It's not as easy to shove the mess under or behind something as it used to be! (I was delighted when hubby's folks came to visit and my mum-in-law said "Oh, your house is so neat, I feel I don't want to touch anything in case I put it back in the wrong place!" - but then after a few hours it was back to normal... :-)
