We never seem to get on top of anything.
There is a constant pile of laundry waiting to be put away. We are eating mainly freezer food. No one hoovered for two weeks until I did it on Friday when I was off work feeling ill.
There are piles and piles of stuff waiting to be sorted through. Everyone is exhausted all the time.
Neither of us have any more to give, and there is no money for a cleaner.
Is this just how it is?
I've been working FT out of the house for four months now, DH changed his hours to accommodate school pick up so works from 7am, I get in at 6pm, then we have Cubs, Scouts, music, riding. We are usually asleep on the sofa by 9pm.
We try to keep on top of the house at the weekends but if we go off routine (I was away last weekend for eg) , it all goes to shit.
How do other people do it? We just seem to be exhausted and messy and blah.
Help me.
