Hating Housework

Although I HATE having a cluttered and disorganized house, I HATE housework even more. I'm usually just too tired or unmotivated and I get sick of picking up everyone else's messes. Every once in a while I will get "into" cleaning and if I can make myself stick with it, I'm usually so happy with the result - except that it never lasts. I had a maid who came every other week, but had to let her go for several reasons, one of which was that it's hard to clean a house that is so cluttered. My husband and kids are no help, so I feel like I'm a loser for not having taught any of them how to take care of their things. Interestingly, I DO take care of MY stuff - I hang up MY clothes and don't leave MY stuff all over the house.

Any tips or thoughts??
