I have two kids ages 3 and 5, pregnant with another. I have friends whose homes I visit and they are just always clean and very neat. We clean constantly - floors, bathrooms, laundry, kitchen, etc... but I can NEVER pin down neat.
I do work full time, but even on "vacation" I can clean my entire home and in just a few days, it's a disaster.
We have piles of art, piles of pictures, piles of bills, toys everywhere, laundry, every room has "stuff".
I can't figure out what the heck to do with it all, or how to keep it there.
For those of you with "neat" houses - what does it take to keep it that way and what is your method??? Between cleaning and keeping things put away, when do you have time for grocery shopping, quality time with your children, "fun" stuff or living??
I'm perplexed, but frustrated with all the clutter.
