Rachel, I hear you. I haven’t the health issues you have, that just makes it more difficult. I had a very ‘sketchy’ upbringing as far as home and family goes -no habits whatsoever. I have raised three who are on their own, God alone knows how:)
Two more still at home and after 26 years of struggling with my self esteem and my lack of discipline, we almost have this place under control:)
A book I have been reading lately that has been a huge help to me in the zone cleaning area is by Sandra Felton. She has several, The Messies Manual and Smart Organizing are my favorites. She really spends time focusing on why we tend to be the way we are and then helping analyze and create a system that will work with the way we think. I am so thankful your kids are willing and I pray God will give you ‘blinders’ to the things that can wait and help you focus on the things that will help you longterm.
God Bless
Heidi
