  • cleaners are great, can't rate mine highly enough...a good one does cost though, so if you have money worries then think carefully. However I have found that I now keep the house tidy so that they can actually clean it and it gives me more time to do everything else (which often is just sitting down with a good book & cup of tea thinking how clean the house is)

    To repeat other posters don't beat yourself up. I only work 2 mornings a week (a couple of private cleaning jobs ironically!) and I can't cope with cleaning up after DH and 4DCs. When I go to clean the two houses that I work in it is so much easier to stay focussed as you don't have to tidy as you go. I just go in, do the job and go. At home I get hopelessly sidetracked.
    I have plenty of willpower - it's won't power I need.
