Doing laundry in my house it like shoveling snow during a blizzard, no matter how much or how fast you shovel in five minutes there is always more. With a household of six and two of those being babies, we go through quite a lot of laundry in a week. In our house I do most of the laundry, but there are times when Bryan helps me out a lot with washing, bringing baskets up from downstairs and he'll even fold and put away his own clothes. But all of the folding and putting away of the kids clothes falls on me. With that being said things do tend to pile up from clothes waiting to be taken down stairs, brought up stairs, folded and put away the laundry never comes to an end.
During the day things can get pretty busy so I try to do most of the laundry during nap times and at night. So, I'll often ask Bryan to help me out by bringing up the next load while I fold and put away. There are two things my husband hates, the first one being bugs and the second is going to the basement late at night (I think he is secretly afraid of the dark.) So, you would think that after 10 years together I would stop asking him to kill spiders and go down to the basement after dark... but I haven't LOL. Some days I leave for work and forget to move the clothes from the washer to the dryer and I'll call him at 9pm and ask him to do this for me before I get home. And Bryan being the most predictable person, always says, "Ugh Jaime, why do you always wait until it's dark to tell me that? Can't they just stay in the washer until tomorrow?" But he always does it for me... (smile).
Since my pile does nothing but grow I guess I'll start this week's laundry tomorrow...
