The laundry... If you have not found or used it in months then it's not a "real" need right now. Maybe you could take out 10 (or however many you are comfy with) outfits for each person and get rid of all the rest. Yep that means 10 pairs of socks and undies, 10 tshirts, maybe 5 pants, 2 pairs of shoes, etc... for each person and get rid of all the rest. When all those clothes you never wear or use are gone and the only thing left is well fitting clothes you like, your laundry amounts will go down by a TON and you will feel RELIEF!!!!!! Do you have a shed or garage or locking trash cans you can put the garbage bags in? Pets (again said gently)... 9 cats and 3 dogs is still ALOT of big pets to take care of! That's alot of food and litter and poop scooping and hair everywhere! That has to be a strain on you! Is there anyway that a few of them (the more "destructive" ones) can get re-homed and give you some breathing space? Thirteen pets is an awful lot to deal with when you have a toddler and you are trying to clean up! {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} And I have big babies too! My middle guy was 10.9lbs at birth! Baby steps, do one positive thing for yourself each day! Please don't give up!!!!! {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

well i have put the dogs up and got down to it in the living room. had my hubby move our Monster sized 2 piece desk so i can clean around it so i dont get chlostrophobic.
(i am down to 2 dogs and 4 cats now by the way)
so the clostest laundrymat is 5 miles or more. once i get the rest of the living room clean (hopefully today) i will start sorting the cloths and hopefully i can get the pile down.
and i have started using tape on the diapers. seems to be working.
thanks again! i appreciate all the support.

We have tons of raccoons in my neighborhood, fruit rats too. They would get in the trash and make a mess but then we bought those Rubbermaid "Brutes" with the lids....big, strong and by golly that lid goes on tight!! Not even rambo raccoon could get in one of those! But if you don't have the money right now you can always put a heavy brick or two on top of your trash can and that should stop the little buggers!
