The real cause is that you and your wife never learned how to keep house. I'm in the same boat. My house is cluttered. Not like hoarder bad but stuff just piles up. I've been a guest where the house is always neat and everything is put away. The hosts just never let anything get out of place. Everything they own has a place and it always goes back there immediately after its used. They maintain this organized well kept home almost effortlessly, because they were taught how to do it at a young age by parents who were the same way. Whereas for me, it would take me several dedicated hours a day to get everything picked up and put away.
- XorNot 5mo agoDid those people have young children?
- SoftTalker 5mo agoSome of them, yes. But you'd hardly know looking at their house.
- sntscy 5mo agoThose people are just talking the 1-1.5 hours that this person described and have spread it out rather than doing it at the end of the day.
- SoftTalker 5mo agoYes and no. They somehow tidy the house as they are moving through it anwyay. So it doesn't amount to substituting that time for something else they would be doing. Or at least that's how it appears to me.
