My house is a disgusting mess.
Like gross.
Like I don't want kids in a place like this.
The depression that I was going thru and I'm now trying to climb out of, left me with no energy to clean up or wash dishes or do laundry. So now, I am trying, with some success to clean my house from top to bottom before I leave to visit my grandma and aunts tomorrow. I have been working on it for days now and when I look around I can see the small progress.
I feel like this is my chance to change my life, and the life of my children. I have big dreams of un-schooling, farm life, and spinning, but I know it wont work for me our my children if I can't get it under control. It being my awful neatness skills.

I was so in your shoes a few months ago. My story is a bit different though. I was working out side of the home for four years 60 plus hour work weeks and my husband was in charge. When I lost my job a year ago, I felt like I couldnt dig out of the disgustingness. I was afraid to let my baby lay on the floor. it came to a point where we werent even really using our living room as a living space. we lived in this teeny tiny house all 6 of us and it was AWFUL. We got an opportunity to move and I jumped at the chance to purge purge purge. I was depressed too, crazy emotional, I felt so insane. You can do it! I did and when I got a chance to start over fresh the organized woman inside of me came out. I have a laundry schedule, chore charts, cleaning schedules. The house isnt perfect. with four kids it will never be but man, It feels so great to be clean again.
thank you! i know it will get better and it has been but you know how living in a disgusting house can just sap the will out of you! one room, one meal, one projest at a time.
