I AM a genius. I don't care what he says.

Here at chez voiture, we've started using a system for managing the laundry. Not unlike any other family of 4, we go through lots of clothes around here. I hate doing laundry so much that I leave it all for the weekend, which ends up meaning that I leave it all for Sunday, which means it gets done about every two weeks on one awful Sunday when I do approximately 85 loads. Then I take it all up both flights of stairs to the upstairs where the bedrooms are...and there the overflowing baskets of clean clothes sit. We dig through them and remove clothes throughout the week, which leaves the baskets in a mess and the clothes with wrinkles. The whole laundry thing, start to finish, just sucks.

No more!!

I bought all of us a laundry basket. As in, I bought one laundry basket for each member of the family. Now the clothes are magically sorted as soon as they come out of the dryer!! I mean, holy crap!! Now it will take no time at all to put them away in everyone's room, and we'll avoid the whole step of spreading everything out in piles across our bed. I assume that as we grow even more accustomed to this system, we will actually use the same laundry baskets as hampers in the bedrooms. I am so genius!!

D likes the new process, but he's not buying into the idea that I've come up with something new. The other day he mumbled something about "I always hear everyone at work talking about how they do the same thing..." Hrumph. Perhaps if it were something that made us money...

Ugh. I've devolved into blogging about laundry. Hopefully things will get more exciting sometime soon...
