    I am convinced that my laundry is breeding. No sooner do I think that I have got it all than I have another giant pile quietly chuckling in the corner.

    Cleaning is fine the first time round it is repeating that ruins it all :rotfl:

    Oh sometimes it helps to realise there are other homes out there is the same state of disarray.

    I go through phases of getting things relatively in control but never finished and then it all slips again, it has been at the slipped stage for quite a while. Upstairs is not too bad it is all the rooms downstairs where paperwork and random items accumuate and breed at the rate of bacteria.

    I currently have four boxes of "stuff" that has no home in the house but is too useful/loved to get rid of. I haven't touched any of it for years but there it stays.
