yeah! i'm a bit on the compulsive side and with dh, who is a bit scattered, i do get crazed. for me, my motto is a place for everything and everything in its place. for dh, his motto is a place for everything and nothing in its place. i love him but pray our house is more neat.

YESSSSSSSSSS and I am so frustrated! My condo is not even that big and I cant keep up with it. I would love to have a cleaning lady. Dh thinks our place is just fine, but he doesnt see all the little things I do. LIKE DUST!

Re: do you ever feel like you just can't keep your home 'neat' enough???

YES I am so annoyed lately. I feel like I clean EVERYDAY. I don't mean straighten up I mean CLEAN everyday.

Re: do you ever feel like you just can't keep your home 'neat' enough???

yes, and it never looks any neater or cleaner. i'm totally out of room, i don't have anywhere to put things.

My rule of thumb is keep my house clean enough so that if I ever have an unexpected guest....I am prepared.

I agree!! With 2 kids, a husband and dog, I can NOT keep up. I work fulltime also so I am exhausted at night and have to do everthing on the weekend. I HATE it. My dh and daughter loose everything because they never put it back in the same place. We are going to have a garage sale in the spring to get rid of everything because everytime I go in my basement, I start having panic attacks-lol!
