unpacking bags of crap - my daughter is autistic (with sld) and just fills up bags with random crap, washing, shoes, bits of paper - anything
making beds, washing beds, being moaned at
why does the toilet smell more as well?
why is everything such a mess. It was fine last week

Look on the bright side - any passing burglar will think that someone has beaten them to it and move on.

So glad it's not just me! I had a melt down about it yesterday Blush

I have soo much washing, three loads yesterday and the bin is still full! As I tidy they create more. I was looking forward to getting the house straight in the hols (I teach) seems that was optimistic.

We all cleaned for two hours this morning before the cleaner came. She did two hours of energetic hoovering and wiping down. She has been gone two hours and I am looking at a lego mountain with towels and shoes and a half painted penguin.

I think I might move out until September!

I flipped in my house today, 2nd week in and my poor house has had a battering.

Sat down with a can now looking at a nice clean and tidy house.

No doubt when I come home from work it will be trashed again.

The house was spotless, tidy and clean on the last day of term, which i think was 12 days ago. It looked ok last week, but although its kind of tidy, it is not clean. I could do it once everyone else is in bed, but I'm exhausted, why should I? I think I might make it a priority to put a wipe over the bathroom tomorrow, it is looking desperate in there. We have a bag filler here too. Why do they do it?

Another bag filler here in the shape of DD. Bags and also her toy buggy under basket - I find all sorts of shit I there. Drives me nuts. I am one child down at the moment (DS1 staying with grand parents until Friday) and it is still a tip.

More people in the house and no time to tidy and clean it.

I must confess I struggle.

I don't know how my sister does it, but her house is always spotless.
