[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 363194, member: 3444"] He's depressed. AND... it sounds like you've been to MY HOUSE!!! :rofl: You are not being a witch -- I go nuts about the mess here, too. It builds and builds in me over time, and the I let loose and everyone hustles to help tidy up. And then the next day they're back to their slovenly ways. I try not to care too much. I remind myself that most of us have issues in this house. That I can't do it all so it's not my fault. And that some times I just have to look the other way. But it does eventually get to me. I tell you, when I was single, my place NEVER, EVER looked anything close to the way my house looks most days now. Unless you count moving days. :raspberry-tounge: Then I married a difficult child and gave birth to two point five more. The rest is history. I also try to remind myself that some day, the kids will be gone and I'll just have husband and myself to worry about -- and husband is getting more and more trainable as the years (and medications) sink in.
