There are many different methods and devices to sort dirty clothes.  For our family and my laundry routine, it works best for me to sort dirty clothes as they go into the hamper. I would never survive if all clothes landed in one big hamper and I had to sort them every time we needed [...]

Are You Prepared? Is Your Laundry?

June 2, 2010

I’ve had bigger laundry piles than I’ve ever dealt with in the past few weeks.  It is so odd for us not to have clean clothes in the drawers.  (It’s very typical for the floor to need sweeping…but we always seem to have clean clothes.)  The past few weeks have caused me to really reflect [...]

Laundry Routine: Stay at Home Moms

March 15, 2010

Laundry Routines vary from family to family.  One of the variables that determines how your routine will work is if you are a stay at home mom or one who works outside the home or works at a job while staying home. Just in case you’re wondering, I’ve held all three positions. I’m highlighting several [...]

Towels: To Hang or Not to Hang?

March 11, 2010

Does your family use one towel per bath/shower? Or do you hang them up and re-use for several showers? Or do they stay in a wet heap on the bathroom floor? (I hope the last choice isn’t your answer.  But if it is you can definitely get the stink out of your smelly towels.) In [...]

What to do with Stray Socks

March 3, 2010

I’m assuming that you also have a black hole in your laundry room where stray socks disappear.  It does seem to be a never ending battle.  I have no idea how or why socks decide to part from their mates, but it is inevitable it seems. This is my solution: It sits on top of [...]

Laundry Routine: Working Moms

February 23, 2010

Laundry Routines are as varied as any household job comes.  What works for one family is possibly not going to work for another. I love to read how different people do things, even if I have a method that works fairly well for me.  I enjoy reading different ways of freezer cooking, organizing my coupons, [...]

Monday Morning Laundry Blues

February 22, 2010

Yikes.  It really is this bad, since I just took this picture a few minutes ago!  It takes up the entire length of my hallway and the pile is as tall as my almost-3-year-old. I think every article of clothing we have is dirty.  My poor husband went to work in his “back-up jeans and [...]
