Success after IF

I feel like all I do is clean and straighten up.

Between the toys, the laundry, the food thrown off of the high chair. 

I swear, I feel like I get one room cleaned up and we start all over.

No real point- just whining. :)

  • I just gave up and lowered my standards, lol...

  • I feel the same way.  I had a mini breakdown about it this morning (mostly over the ever-shedding dog -- a husky-chow mix -- my dyson and I can't keep up).  I counted how many times I wiped down the kitchen table and counter tops the other day, and it was at least 6.  It never ends!

    This is how I feel about the cat hair!

    I feel the same way, and it's wearing me down. Between picking up, cooking/serving meals and cleaning the kitchen three times a day, doing the laundry and the 560million other things that have to be done on a daily basis, I have zero time to actually spend one-on-one with my kids. It makes me crazy.

    Like Dana I've lowered my standards, but just doing the bare minimum seems to suck up every minute of the day.

  • I feel the same way. It stinks because i dont like clutter everywhere. I also lowered my standards
  • I feel the same way. It doesn't help that I'm a clean freak too.

    This, but it still makes me crazy to see things messy!
  • It is hard and I don't think you're whining.  I'm sorry to say it doesn't get much better (although now Ben will help a little).  I agree with everyone else though.  I just have to say to myself that I'm doing the best I can.  Down the road when Ben is all grown up, I'll be wishing for the mess again.
