Dirty Post

I know we all have dirty little secrets, but I'm coming clean with mine TODAY. I really really really suck at laundry. That's it. That's my secret. Sometimes I say "I'm all caught up with laundry" but it's always a lie...to myself. I mean can we EVER be "caught" up with laundry? The answer: NO. Well at least I never can. I know there are ways I can prevent the pain and agony of this dreadful chore but it just isn't happening.

Here is a list of the dirty little dance the laundry and I have had over the years:
*Laundry once a week
*Wash all dirty laundry, pile clean laundry in a baby hamper until needed
*Place a basket in each room to collect laundry..it doesn't seem like so much build up that way
*Visit the Laundromat....on several several occassions
*Hand the chore over to Matt
*Do laundry every day for a week and feel really great but decide laundry is boring
*Wash dirty, fold clean put in pretty piles only to leave the room and the kids have destroyed the masterpiece
*Hire a housecleaner because I just know that this will help me keep up on ALL my other chores (laundry)
*Wash dirty, fold clean, put in piles and leave them there for days hoping Matt would decide to put them away
*Invite my mother, and really good friends to come stay the weekend with me...and then sucker them into washing, drying, folding and putting away my laundry
*Buy a really really great washer and dryer and just know that the laundry will do itself

    Your friends came and did your laundry? Add that to the list of things I will never do for you! LOL Well, I mean, I would never do that for you as long as you were capable of doing it yourself. I'd probably throw in a load if you'd just broken both legs or something... ;)

    To defend myself...I think it is easier to do Sunny's laundry than my own. However, I think the real answer is to get rid of half your cloths. Then you will have less to do and feel better about yourself!!

    J I just have to figure out what is on the list that you WOULD do for me...um maybe we should re-evaluate what your duties are. ahahaha
