But please come take my dishes any day! <br />My laundry secrets? 1. Throw a load in every morning. 2. Use as FEW hampers as possible to cut down on carting, sorting, etc. - we're down to one for the entire family. 3. Have kids help with sorting color piles. 4. Pay kids a penny for each pair of socks they can match. (Cheap labor happens to work at my house. :)) 5. Fold clothes as they come out of the dryer. Oh & one more - that I'm not too good at - 6) Stay away from facebook & go put away that folded laundry!Christanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12146441.post-49372605689043990002010-02-23T14:49:59.305-05:002010-02-23T14:49:59.305-05:00I actually do 2 of the things she recommends! 1) ...I actually do 2 of the things she recommends! 1) Sort as you go. I have a big sorter in my room. Not pretty, but worth it. My clothes are all sorted, and as each bag fills up, I throw a load in. When we have a bigger place, I'll probably get another sorter for towels, linens, etc. 2) I also sort the boys' clothes by boy. :). I started doing this bc Simon's clothes need to be laundered completely scent free bc of his ezcema. But it happens to also make folding and putting away MUCH easier. I hate having a load to fold that makes me have a million piles bc there's a big variety of clothes "types". And I often fold their laundry right in their room too, to make it easier to put away. <br /><br />Lately, I've been trying to have all laundry caught up by Friday night so I don't have to do any over the precious weekend. :)<br /><br />I am AMAZED at how much laundry 2 adults and 3 little people make!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15138599512440470090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12146441.post-77794354725851292092010-02-23T12:34:27.132-05:002010-02-23T12:34:27.132-05:00Let it pile up for about 2 days and then spend a W...Let it pile up for about 2 days and then spend a WHOLE day doing laundry- repeat over and over and over again- I need help too!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11152699130067280626noreply@blogger.com
