Laundry for Thought

So I’ve decided that laundry is this weird thing.  I’m not gonna go out on any limb and say good or bad.  The middle, ever so non-descript, weird road.  Everyone likes to have clean laundry.  In fact, I think you would be hard pressed to find a person who wouldn’t mind always having clean clothes waiting for them and never having to have dirty ones to worry about.

Let’s not get sidetracked in a world of “that would be great” and “I wishes”.  Laundry is not hard, it just takes an effort.  *see foot note*  Because of this effort, I typically wait until there is a considerable pile of laundry before any effort is undertaken.

Once you have arrived at a laundry facility, the road becomes smooth.  This is the easy part.  You simply just have to put everything in and let the scrubbing commence.  This is particularly fun when using front loading machines.  You can see the action taking place.  Now, I have an unbiased view towards drying.  It is what it is.

However, once the drying is finished, the road turns to hell.  I hate folding.  In fact, this very blog came about because I am staring at a pile of clean clothes that have been on my floor for over a week.  It would take me 10 minutes to fold them all and put them away, but for whatever reason, they remain on the floor.

*We are talking about laundry that is not in your house/apt.  This is laundry that has to be schlepped down stairs, across roads or driven to laundry mats.
