How to have a clean and organized home?

I work 5 days a week and by the time i get home i am exhausted!! I hate coming home to a dirty house but it seems like there is never enough time to get my home exactly the way i want it. any ideas for organization. Serious responses only please.

Buy some baskets & start organizing things that are lying around. Start at the front door & work your way towards the back & you should have it in better shape within 6 months. Buy a paper shredder for your unwanted mail & papers & keep it near the place where you open & sort your mail & pay your bills! Get in the habit of taking the trash out on a daily basis & buy sponges for the kitchen in bulk packages. Never use them for more than 2 weeks to avoid the nasty smells & keep a can of comet cleanser under every sink to clean the sink & the scrubber sponges!

It sucks when you are just too tired to do everything to your liking! It will get better. Thanks. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/accuse_write?qid=20070828183507AA6034g&kid=NbUvWzK.WTc7y9VH5.hx&s=comm&date=2007-08-30+22%3A22%3A29&.crumb=

Try cleaning and organizing one room a day. In that way, you only spend a few minutes out of each day, working on it. Either early morning, or right when you get home. After a while, you'll find that the whole house has an improved look, and you'll start feeling good about it and yourself.
