I know laundry is the pits!
But there are some things that you are going to have to do
for the rest of your life!!!
(and laundry is one of them)
So if you are mad about that, then you just need to get glad about that.
...
You may be saying "self, how do I get glad about that?"
Answer: make it
do-able.
One way to make it do-able is to cut down on the
amount of laundry you actually have to do in a week.
...
Tip: Start with your towels.
Take stock of your current towel situation
1- Sort all your towels into categories
Master Bath
Kids
Guest
Cleaning
Other
2- How many towels do you actually NEED?
* How many people are in your family?
* How often does each kid bathe?
* Can you use your towel more than once?
* How many wash cloths do you use a day?
3- Dump or donate any old, weathered,
"unhappy" or excessive towels.
4- Equalize
Make a mental note of how many towels are needed
in each bathroom and check to see that they made it
back there after showers and baths everyday. If towels
get hung up after each use you will not end up with
unnecessary loads of laundry.
5- Assign a "Towel" day
Chose one day a week to wash all your towels.
Keeping this type of schedule with your laundry
will keep you on task and eliminate the mile high
piles of laundry. It also feels really good to know
that all your towels are clean on wednesday night
when you go to bed, even if they will be used again
on thursday.
You too can be as happy as this housewife!
Give it a try.
-and remember It's Just an Idea.
