I like a “well lived in home”. I’m just convincing myself of that, because I too, feel your defeat. Good luck on Thanksgiving cleanup. BTW, aren’t our kids old enough to have daily chores of cleaning up? Yeah…..I’m thinking a chore chart. Yeah..that’s the ticket.
Yes, Shanna, my older kids are old enough for chores and they do help out a ton. I thinks it’s just been 3 years of working to survive that has made my house out of control. We’ve been getting the regular chores done; laundry, dusting, vacuuming, but it’s the organizing that has gotten out of control.
