[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 462376, member: 2322"] I haven't been in your situation but can imagine, sometimes I don't even want friends over because the house is messy. Either reframe it in your mind--maybe if they see how much stress and turmoil the family has been through, how little money I have to spend on the house, they will realize how much I need services. Or maybe talk candidly about how all the stuff with husband and work and difficult children etc has left you with no energy--you need their help to try to improve the quality of the house. Or else just clean the living room! In any event, give yousrelf an attagirl--you have dealt with a husband in one of the most stressful situations ever, you have a job and are working, you have very stressful kids, you are quitting smoking, you aren't beating your kids, they should be falling over themselves to be impressed with you.
