I feel like my house is constantly a fucking mess. My wife and I work 80 hours between us and we have a 2 year old and I feel like it's constantly a mess.

We do what we can and often spend a couple hours on a weekend tidying but it's a losing battle.

How do you cope/keep on top of things?

You just need to master one rule: designate a place for each item and put them IMMEDIATELY back in their designated place after use.

OP can master that rule today, won't make a damn bit of difference with a 2 year old around.

Oh yes, this is the path to giving up.
