I need some help. I make lists, I make chore charts, I prioritize what should be done and you know what happens? The bare minimum.
I need help. I would love to hire a housekeeper, but the problem with this idea is that I think my family should clear their own clutter.
Proof that I DO make them clean sometimes.
I am looking around my living room. I see: no less than 8 pairs of shoes (and 3 of them are mine!); 2 loads of clean laundry on the loveseat; breakfast dishes for 2 kids on the coffee table; magazines, mail, and homework on the end table; hair from the dog all over the carpet and upholstery, 2 laptops, pillows, games by the shelves they are supposed on and not actually on the shelves, and various other items....
Yet, here I sit. Today's plan is to clean it all up and then what? How do I get my dear children to buy into the fact that once clean it should stay relatively neat?
