ok i am at the end of my tether with this.
my living room is my onlt access to my back garden, it is a french door, i have laminate flooring. the garden is paved except for a raised flowerbed and around the edge of the garden where my garden joins the neighbours on both side there is mud taht i can't pave because it is too close to the fence and it would encroach on the neighbours' gardens. so the mud gets all over the yard. i don't even let the dcs play out tehre anymore because it is just liek a mud bath. i obviously have to let the dog out to toilet and i have to be out there multiple times a day for the bins, coal, hang teh washing, stuff from teh shed etc. so everything i walk in out there gets walked straight through my living room and on through the hall into the kitchen. my living room feels liek basically a thoroughfare between teh kitchen and the back door, i have made a rule that only slippers are to be worm inside and shoes are to be removed at the back door when you come in. i have one of those JML magic mats at the door and another runner mat across teh living room to the hall but still teh dirt carries.
what can i do? it is constant. there really is no point me cleaning it because ten minutes later tehre will be more.
