I don't have anybody at the moment. I have lots of internet friends but not that live nearby. I really only have one real friend that lives near me and his approach to cleaning would be to bulldoze and discard everything in his path disregarding its importance. He was dating a girl who I paid to help me clean but I don't know if they broke up or what because she no longer returns my phone calls.

A couple of years ago my sister said she was going to come down every Saturday during the summer to help me clean. She came down one time and got into an argument with my son and never came again. Just as well though because she and I, well she and everybody don't get along.

Sometimes I am so overwhelmed by it all that I am immobilized. I am trying to prioritize and take it bit by bit but it is difficult.

Lots of people say their houses are messy and when I say it they tell me oh it can't be that bad. Yes, it is that bad.

Here is a pic of how bad it is. This is so embarrassing
