I'm fed up. My house feels a bit grotty... christmas is coming and god forbid people might actually want to come and visit. Now don't get me wrong, we find time to do all the surface-y stuff: wipe down the kitchen sufaces/change beds/towels/wash and iron clothes/keep on top of dishes and the house is tidy as far as is possible in a new build with very little storage- but where do you find time for the BIG stuff? We both work full time, I leave at 7.30am and return about 6.30pm with 3 overnights 500miles away each month, DD is 18mo. I just can't seem to find time to do all the stuff my Mum does... cleaning floors and ovens, windows, skirtings, blinds, kitchen cupboards etc etc. Are we supposed to give up weekends family time for this? We just can't get on top of it! Any tips?
