Please be gentle, I don't need anyone being nasty about it. I feel bad enough that it's come to this point.
The whole house needs tidying, the whole house needs decluttering, everything could do with a deep clean after to start fresh. How do I get all of it done? There's stuff everywhere that needs to be put away/stuff to be washed etc.
I can't put things away in the cupboard because theres too much stuff already in there - the cupboard needs clearing out before I can put stuff away - I need space to be able to get everything out to clear the cupboard - I haven't got space because of all the things needing to be put away - I can't put the things away because there's no room in the cupboards.
It's a vicious cycle and no blame can be put on any one person in the house, we all make the mess and we are all reluctant to getup and do it, but something needs to change. We sorted out a lot in the summer but it slipped back to our old ways as I struggled to keep up with the demands of a baby and my DH went back to work. I absolutely will not ask for help from outside whether that's professionals or family/friends as it's our responsibility to sort out.
Can someone please help me work out where to go from here, how to declutter and get back to square one and most importantly how to maintain it? I don't want links to the websites that will help as I find that it only encourages me to further procrastinate😣 thank you!!!!
