I am so stressed out

I clean and clean and nothing stays the way I get it done for more than a few minutes. I feel like all my hard work has no results. I need a clean house though. I have cleaning help every now and then but I see no point other than a few minutes of a clean house. I dont even have a big family. I have a few young children and I feel totally over my head with EVERYTHING. My husband helps out, but he needs everything spelled out to him.
AHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Signed, stressed

PRIORITIES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I hope my children look back on today,
And see a Mother who had time to play!

Children grow up while you're not looking,
There'll be years ahead for cleaning and cooking,

So quiet now, cobwebs; dust go to sleep.
I'm rocking my baby, and babies don't keep.

great poem
op im with you
sometimes I dont bother cleaning because itll just get messy again
anyway. When it gets really bad then I attack with cleaning.
just keeping up with the basics is enough to tire you out.
hang in there and know that at the end of the day a little dirt never hurt anybody
