Dear Care and Feeding,

My husband is a great partner and father. He pulls his weight and then some in household tasks, is the primary earner, and is great with our kid. But he has some blind spots.

One of them is that he is always dropping pills on the floor and not picking them up. He takes various vitamins, a statin, and a few other meds each day, and sometimes he’ll take ibuprofen when he gets home from work. He keeps all of his meds in the bathroom and takes them in there, too, usually with the door closed during his shower time. The problem is that I am constantly finding loose pills on the floor.
