Our house is so messy and cluttered at the min and I feel completely overwhelmed by it all. Every room, kids rooms, living areas, kitchen and front entrance - where everyone just dumps their stuff - is really getting me down. I do try and keep on top of it and instill this into my kids too (11, 10 & 5) but I constantly feel like I'm wading through treacle and no one takes any notice. It's getting me down so much and turning me into a complete nag tbh. So, because I'm feeling so overwhelmed at where to start I am seriously considering just having a total sweep of everything and donating/chucking out relentlessly just to clear the decks, reasoning that if I did regret letting anything go it would be easier, and kinder on my sanity, to just buy it again as hopefully those things would be very few, if any.
Then (again hopefully) I could begin afresh with a clean slate and keep it that way.
Has anyone else done this and, if so, how did it work out and did it make you feel better?
Looking forward to replies, TIA!
