When Almost Lives with Always

Almost is a great help around the house, and he can fix just about anything. When he is finished, he puts everything away. Almost.
Always has a need for things to be where they belong. It is difficult for her to sleep if the dishes aren't done, and she has a little pattern that she likes for the items left on the table: salt here, pepper there, napkins just so. The leftover bolts and the un-stored duct tape that Almost leaves behind upset her. She puts them away, only to find (a week later) that Almost wanted them left there.
Almost gets his dirty clothes ALMOST into the hamper. When he leaves something on the chair beside the bed, he is ALWAYS irritated to find that Always has relegated it to the laundry, even though it wasn't very dirty. Her contention is that it is ALWAYS better to have clean clothes.
By now you might have guessed that Always does household chores on the same day every week, ALWAYS. And you can bet that Almost helps out, emptying ALMOST all of the trash cans, for example. That one he missed is a thorn in Always' side until the next trash day. He tells her to relax, it's just trash, and he ALMOST got it all.
Almost and Always love each other, so they make it work. But it is almost always irritating for them both.
