Call it a combination of a hectic life, few hours together as a family, apathy, denial or any other label you can think of. The bottom line is this: our house is a mess!
Our house is an 1100 sq ft nightmare of depressing insanity. Because of the disarray of our home we are probably functionally utilizing about 5 percent of our actual livable space. We have talked about selling this home and moving into a house that would better accomodate our family situation, but I think the monumental task of getting the abode even remotely presentable to sell would probably give us the propensity to actually live here.
So in the spirit of "less blogging, more cleaning", let me give you the rundown on the situation, the areas that must be addressed and hopefully though the journal and accountability (additional) that comes with opening my house to the eyes of the world can bring.
1100 Sq feet. This is a townhome with two bedrooms, two and a half baths, a narrow kitchen. A dining room, a living room and two corridors. I'll get to the actual issues that exist in each of these rooms as I tack on blog entries.
Residents of this house are the following personnae vitae
Me - "P" - a graphic designer
My wife - "J" - a photographer, and...
our 3 year old son - "G" - who is an incredibly smart and well adjusted little boy, despite our efforts to ruin his life and expose him to daily bodily injury in our home.
So, please feel free to rake us over the coals, motivate us, inspire us, flame us, give hints.
Let me warn you, this is the kind of situation that would make a televised organiztion program run for the hills. The scenario reveals some fairly disgusting habits and tendencies that I hope can be resolved by taking these steps. Because of the disorganization it has put an enormous amount of stress on our marriage, which I also hope to salvage.
