Quoting BG Secrets:" heres my response to all the comments made in the last day: I do live with my husbands cousin- IT is ... [snip!] ... once again NOT MY HOUSE! i go through my and my childrens clothes and stuff regularly, and it is in a storage building. "

YOU posted this.... and asked what people thought. People didnt come to you unsolicited. You didnt think people were all going to say "oh, looks great honey, keep up the good work!", did you, honestly?

I agree with the last two pages. Excuses aren't getting the job done

You can bring the kids out all you want, they still need fresh air in their home. Take down the curtains, put them in the wash. Get a bucket of pinesol &'hot water & start washing the windows.

Get 3 empty boxes place them on the floor in front of the fridge, put all the crap in the boxes, separating it by owner into the boxes. Then set them in each persons room. Take the garbage out yourself.

Go into the childrens room with a garbage bag. Take everything off the shelf, every toy that is broken goes in the bag. Wipe down the shelf. Put all the books on the top shelf. All the small toya in the bins, big toys in the bottom. Whatever doesn't fit goes to storage or donate.

Fold all of the laundry & put it in each persons room. Tell them you are only now going to be responsible for your laundry & all of the childrens.

Get a garbage bag & go to your room anything you haven't touched in 3m or worn in 6 gets thrown away. Clean the mirror, windows

Stop buying expensive cigarettes. Sell everything you can & save that money. Find a job working nights evenings & tell the kids fathers they must stay there & watch their own children.

Talk to your husband explain that while you are the housewife you are not a maid & need to be treated with respect.

Honestly I could not live in thar squalor. Simply opening the windows 'would make it look better.

This is very good advice.

Good idea! If I had to live in someone else's mess I would be working any shift I could to save and move the hell out.

I can't imagine 3 grown men wanting to keep empty boxes and coffee cans... or mind if she cleans the fridge until it's white, etc.

Seriously, it doesn't excuse the fingerprints on the fridge door   And yes, OP they were THAT visible.
