Our house doesn't work for me. Moving is not an option at the moment, though I long too, so I have to find a way to make it work for us.
Come in the house and on the left is the door into the lounge. The dining room (used for piano, computer, book case, bureau, hamsters) is separated by an archway (doors not on) and you go right, into the kitchen. Off the kitchen is a door to the hall way, which is opposite the front door.
The stairs are opposite the front door and DS2's room is just off centre to the top of the stairs. Either side of his room is DS1 and DD's rooms. Opposite DD's room is the main bathroom and to the side of DS1's room is our room.
There is no where to put stuff so DD has had a game from school since lat Friday and we haven't got around to playing it. Just tried and will get Dh to do it with her when DS2 is occupied.
Our room gets to be a dumping ground until we can get things put away. We also have an utility room, downstairs loo, downstairs cupboard and a big airing cupboard.
Every day is the same with me tying to get the house looking half decent and it gets me down.
MIL tells me it shouldn't bother me but it does and that is just the way it is.
I am going to bath the kids now.
