Just like I said above, we tend to store more than we use. This can be a good thing and a bad thing. If you keep too much stuff on your own, it can be a problem. You can get in trouble. If you keep too little, then you won’t have an outlet for the things you need to keep or even the things that you don’t need like diapers. Either way, you will find yourself with less storage space.
The other thing that I find myself doing a lot of is loading up laundry. I have a closet full of clothes, but only a few of them are needed for any given day. So I have to lug it all out and fold it up neatly. It’s no big deal, but it is tedious.
The fact that you go to a lot of effort to load up laundry is probably a good thing. If you have all your clothes in one spot then you can load it all up in one go, and you dont have to worry about trying to keep track of where the right spot is for each piece. On the other hand, if you are constantly loading up your clothes and then taking them out of the dryer, you are probably doing it wrong.
I think loading and unloading laundry is a good thing. Especially if you are a person who likes to eat, which I am not. I just hate getting all that laundry dirty and then having to fold it up.
I agree that loading and unloading laundry is a good thing. Unfortunately I think that if you are a person who likes to eat, you probably don’t want to load and unload laundry. I do however, love loading and unloading clothes, especially when I have leftovers from my Thanksgiving feast.
My laundry has always been my number one motivation for doing laundry. When I got married, I made a promise to myself that I would never do a load of laundry that had been washed and folded, so I did not have to worry about being overwhelmed by laundry. But I have been doing loads of laundry that I have not folded, and I have had sooooo much laundry that I would not have if I didn’t have to fold it all at once.
We’re not talking about that sort of laundry though. It’s the pile of laundry that is un-folded and still has a layer of laundry on top that’s still looking like a pile of clothes.
The reason I say I have loads of laundry that I have not folded is that I actually have a few more laundry days left in the month of May. If I can complete a load of laundry that I have not folded I will have another six days to make up the lost time.
Well that just leaves some laundry that has yet to be folded. There are some things that you can do to make it easier to fold it all at once. If you have a washer and dryer (or two) in the garage, you can get a few things done quickly. You can also get it out of the way so it doesn’t sit on the floor all day.
I do most of my laundry in the garage, but if the washer and dryer are still in the garage, then I do the fold laundry step in the laundry room. The reason that I do this is because I have an extra washer and a couple of washers and dryers. So by doing it right, I can save time in the long run.
