1 load bleached whites 2 loads light colors 2 loads dark colors 1 load Steve's dress clothes(for work) 1 load Colby's scrub unifoms (for work) 1 load colored towels 1 load light pink towels 3 loads bedding 1 load kitchen towels and cloths 1 load Steven's clothes he has messed up through the day (not quite over the virus, wearing 1 reg diaper and 1 x-large diaper over that for overflow, working but not always) That is the laundry I have done. Washed. Dried. Folded. Hung. Ironed. Put away. Beds remade. I cannot image being a washer woman in the early 1900's. Thank heaven for Bosch appliances, a steam iron, clothes hangers and an assortment of laundry products*. Finally, the laundry is finished. The sad part is by the end of the week there will be more laundry to do. Thanks for all your good natured words. I think because I have been ill that my temperment is rather short this week and my irritability level is already pegged pretty high and the least little thing pushes me over the edge. *I am normally not a scented laundry person. In the summertime I much prefer the clean smell of sun dried laundry fresh off the line. My children prefer a scented laundry expecially in their sheets, towels and pj's. I have been using two flavors of the Tide Simple Pleasures. I like them depending on what I am washing. The Rose and Violet is the preference of the girls. I prefer the Vanilla and Lavendar. If you like girly scents try them. I do not find that they clean any better than any other laundry products. They simply scent the laundry. I use the detergent, fabric softener and dryer sheets.
