So sick of this.

6. I have hired a house cleaner to come in once a week

for three hours. She only does the basics. But it means there is a cheerful person in the house. She gets things done, and that motivates me to do the rest. Now, I am going out more and keeping up with things when I am home.

Maybe this would work for you. Try it, if you can. Good luck.
