ey! i just came from doing laundry! only 95% left!
Weeks. Yes.
Love to see this posted one hour after I already did my laundry a week later than I ought to have done it.
I mean this is just categorically false, I'm extremely diligent about doing my laundry.
It then goes onto the "folding pile," which the locals have started to refer to as "Mount Laundry"
What's great about a folding pile that eventually it just becomes your wardrobe. For every piece of clothing I grab from the clothing pile to wear I get to skip folding one piece of clothing.
To avoid this, I now hang almost everything on hangers. It’s not a perfect system, but I’m WAY better about doing it than folding, because folding sucks.
Hang the fancy stuff, everything else gets stuffed into a drawer
I did that for a long time, but hangers and hanging things became such a hassle and started not being efficient/ friendly enough.
I basically don't fold anything now. My jeans get thrown over the hanger bar, my shirts get laid out semi flat so there's no intense wrinkling, and everything else pretty much has its own drawer. The only things I hang now are hoodies, and I have a system like a front entryway coat hanger, so they just get put on the hooks and it's done.
This worked for me as well!
The only things that lay flat are sports shorts folded in half and the few sweaters I own. Shirts, other shorts, and pants are all on appropriate hangers. When I get something out I don't mess up the piles!
Same, everything but socks and underwear goes on a hanger.
Mount Wäscherest
I have a fair excuse right now, the washing machine broke and i have to wash some laundry manually.
Though i generally let the autisms side need for routine to so the clothes washing.
Wow, true, but ... rude.
I did the towels yesterday! I'm do the sheets uhm...sometime.
I did the towels on Saturday, sheets on Sunday, and my clothes last Tuesday!
They are still in the basket. Clean. But in the basket.
I feel seen... and in the worst way.
Two weeks? That's not putting it off. That's just barely enough for a full load.
Jokes on you, I just did a load of laundry this morning.
After forgetting it in the washer last night and having to re-run it.
And I actually brought it down to the laundry room the day before that.
And I put it all in a hamper the day before that.
Okay what I’m saying is, I have a system and it apparently works eventually so nyah.
Good reminder. I gotta do laundry eventually this week.
i dont come here to be personally attacked! thats mean 😓
Oh right… I put two towels in this morning about eight hours ago 😝
My defense is my washer broke.
Bought a too-small-sized cloth bin, do when it overflows, I know there is laundry overdue.
Now about the pile of clothes on the floor next to the bin, I can explain...
Don’t tell me what to do!!!
