My husband is mad because I’m not good at cleaning.
I’m not good at cleaning and he doesn’t understand. He comes from a home with a stay at home mom and a maid. He is from India and that is common. I come from a home with a hoarder. He has seen my grandmother’s, who raised me, home. He is disgusted by it. She doesn’t hoard trash, but she holds paper, collectibles, toys, and clothes ( I should let you know these are not clothes for her. These are clothes that she likes that she sees that yard sales and decides to buy even though it may be for a baby or some thing of that sort.). I am not nearly as bad as her. I’m normal person messy. I just don’t know how to stay clean. He tells me to clean as I go. I have no idea how to do that. It doesn’t even occur to me. Any helpful advice on staying tidy would be appreciated.
Having good storage I think really helps. If you are feeling overwhelmed you can put things away. When my home is less cluttered so is my mind. Once every couple of weeks I call a close friend that lives far for a catch up and we chat for an hour and during the call I do the stuff I dislike and avoid like putting away laundry or sorting my “everything” cube storage. I chuck toys, hair dryer, anything really into cube storage I have in the kitchen.keeps place tidy and I organise it when I have a buddy on the phone for a distraction. Good luck
