Not to mention mowing the lawn, hanging curtains, washing dishes, picking up
toys, rearranging furniture, catching that dang mosquito in my son's room,
putting out the trash, and the important stuff my wife "needs" me to do :-).

LOL, I have learned a few tricks.
1. Use only tight, snap locking bins on the lower shelves that the kids can
