Dom-
I LOVE this website- http://www.flylady.net
You can sign up for daily "nagging" emails, if that would help. Flylady is all about "baby steps". She says your house didn't get this way overnight and it won't get cleaned up overnight. The basis for her plan is making new habits- she calls them routines. I have done her plan to a degree. I go through cycles of doing well and then not doing so well. But I can see taht if you stick to her plan your house will be in great shape.My DH is a NON clutter person, and I come from a long line of junkaholics, so it is hard for me to throw stuff out. I donate to the Goodwill here several times a year. Our house is small so I can't keep everything without REALLY piling up. And we are pretty piled up as it is.
I hope this helps someone...
