No, you couldn't.  There is no excuse for a house to be trashed at the end of the day.  This happens because OP allows her child to both make and leave messes all over the house.  Also, OP is not organized and has no one to blame but herself.  I was a a SAH for ten years, with zero help except a cleaning woman who came in every other week.  I never had a trashed house.  I made a menu every week and stuck to it with grocery shopping once a week.  So did every woman I knew whether they worked or stayed home.  It is nothing more than a matter of being organized.[/quote]

I’m the PP with the smiley face and I’m not entirely sure what you’re referring to. I’m a SAHM of three under seven, I cook from scratch and my house is tidy before I go to bed, but it’s sure as heck not spotless at 6pm! (It’s not trashed either, but there are always half a dozen things the baby left in weird places even if I follow her around the house picking them up, which I don’t, because that’s dumb. Easier to tidy after they go to bed. And of course the big ones are in charge of picking up after themselves.) Sometimes I fold my laundry at 9pm while talking to my husband! My point was that I take my downtime throughout the day as it’s available. If I got a solid chunk of downtime at the end of the day, it would be a lot easier to be “on” all dat. [/quote]
