Overwhelmed.

I'm so overwhelmed right now. I'm trying to clean a kitchen that hasn't been cleaned in months. I found stuff with a best-by date that was fifteen months ago, and that wasn't even the worst of it. Did you know jam goes bad? Yeah, me either.

It's just so overwhelming and I don't know where to start. I feel all shaky and ready to cry, and it's only the beginning. And it's not like I can leave it, because nobody can live with it the way it is, and I want to get it done by the time Keith comes home (about 3pm).

I think the trick for me to get through this - or at least the initial stages of it - is just to clean everything I can see, and worry about what's behind closed doors later.

Here goes nothing....
