How to clean up my house and keep it clean
How I did it: I found someone to help me clean up my place and by having this person come to me when I needed the service, helped me to not be irritable when my appt got to messy and dirty to handle. As I knew that help was a phone call away.
Lessons & tips: Finding a person to help you and working with them to help you. If the person speaks a foreign language better than your own, then get a dictionary that can help you find a word that you're trying to tell them.
The first few times it helps to be with them so that they know how you like things put away and where. After that, once your comfort level is at where you know they know what you like, you can leave them alone.
Offer to buy whatever it is that they need to make the job easier for them.
