[QUOTE="Lil, post: 643263, member: 17309"] My house is a disaster. I don't mean that in the way people with a little dust mean it either. I mean every horizontal surface has something on it that doesn't belong there and, if any part of the actual surface is still visible, it's covered with dust. I have one entire room - that is supposed to be a sewing/exercise room - I can barely walk in. I actually don't even know exactly what's in there at the moment! Closets are the least of it. I hate it. I'm not a neat person by nature but it's just awful. The worst part is I never seem to have time (or ambition) to get to it. We work two jobs, one only about 5-6 hours per week, but it's an hour a couple days a week in the middle of our evenings and 2-3 hours on Saturdays. But mostly, we're [I]tired![/I] Any free time is so precious! I think that is a matter of being stressed more than anything. We're planning on selling in the next year or two and plan to downsize! Some of it is not really our fault, as the basement is empty and being remodeled, so the house is pretty much upside down. I'm about to the point though, where I [I]have[/I] to do it or die trying. :( I would really like to have someone just come in and haul it all away. After all...if I don't know what's there and it's sat for all this time, I apparently don't need it! Maybe New Year's Day I'll try to tackle some of it. [/QUOTE]
