To me, Keeping an organized, tidy living space directly affects my well being, and overall sense of peace and balance.
For instance if I have a stressful day and I come home to order and tidiness, it has a certain soothing/centering affect.
Maybe, being the household leader that you seem to be, you should try setting up a foolproof form of organization. Basically said, Everything in your house has its exact place and purpose. If it doesn't, simply throw it out. Allow yourself some wall space for keepsakes, and a box in the attic for your sentimental artifacts.
I like to think I am the military commander silently asking the various inanimate objects "Sir! State your purpose." and in a smaller voice, I will answer the question of that objects useful purpose in my life. If I can't find a good answer, its either EBAYed, Goodwilled, or trashed.
In a material obsessed society, it is so very easy to attract clutter, but remember. "The more you own. The more it owns you!"
As always, The best solution to a problem always lies within. Opposed to the fault of your spouse or others in your household etc..
Ladies, Your organization and tidiness is very indicative of how one manages ones personal life. If the guys you attract are mental or organizational slobs, odds are the rest of their life isn't exactly congruent with yours either. In my opinion the slovenly lifestyle is symptom to ones larger issues.
