Re: I am not an organized person
Was going to suggest working one thing at a time in a room rather than whole house

Re: I am not an organized person
I need to work on my living room but Ds is currently asleep on my belly... and I am feeling tired. I really wish I did not feel tired all the time. No energy no motivation... I hate it because stuff needs to get done button I'd rather sleep.

Re: I am not an organized person
Have you got a renewed spurt of energy this evening? Could you just set a timer and tidy for 5 minutes?

Re: I am not an organized person
I had no extra bought of energy. I feel a sleep shortly after my son did.
I have a few a ppts this afternoon. I hope to get the living room done when I get back. I hate being so tired.

Re: I am not an organized person
Every little bit of work, every piece of trash thrown away, and every article of clutter brings you closer to your goal. Slow and steady wins this race. Sure, you'll have great days of purging accomplishment, but it is the small daily habits that keeps you sane. YOU CAN DO THIS! The clothing thing is hard with no storage space. Maybe keep an eye on Craigslist for a good dresser. I prefer long, shallow drawers because you can use old shoeboxes to make drawer dividers. In the meantime, what about using hooks to hang up outfits for the next day? That will at least make the morning a little smoother if that is figured out the evening before. |

Re: I am not an organized person
So got the dinning room done, so that's a plus. I really need to catch up on laundry so I am going to store bags on the porch and hopefully do at least if not 2 a day til it's done my kitchen looks like a bomb exploded... so I at least have to attempt to do some a little later.

Re: I am not an organized person
Ok what worked for me to keep it clean was when we had our own house it went like this
6pm start dinner 6:30pm eat dinner 7pm showers 7:30 pick up 8pm bed That seemed to keep the house 75% cleaner I still had to do a tiny bit of clean up during the day but it really helped SO much and I have NO organization skills either

Re: I am not an organized person
I would suggest getting out 5-7 days worth of clothes for everyone, getting them washed and dried and put up, and bag/box up all other clothes for now. mark the bags as dirty or clean, and wash one bag per day, then put it back in a bag.
As for toys, keep out just 5-10 toys... or maybe one "set" of toys per child (Littlest Pet Shop, Legos, Little People, whatever) and one or two other toys. THEN you can focus on getting the house clean, THEN you can bring things back or not. |

Re: I am not an organized person
Do you have dishwasher? We dont and have tons of dishes.You can do those some at time too like if sitting both sides sink with gunky food can work from whichever side have dishdrainer on and ruinse and pre clean food off with scrubbie and stack on other side, then do sink on right hand side if have 2 same thing then clean countertops can take break fill one side warm soapy and washing is quick and set in other side waiting to be rinsed under running water do you have dc old enough to help rinse? Very littles can put silverware away
