I hate laundry so try not to do it before I have to. However, especially with a family, that means I need to get through too many loads in one day. It wastes less of my time if I can feed them all through sequentially. Then when my minions are home from school I can make them cry at all the baskets of laundry to fold
Wife? What are you doing here?
Lol this is exactly my wife's style.... When we divided the chores long ago she picked laundry and seems to have learned to hate it ... Always seems to make it worst by leaving it all for last minute
Kids are teens now so they do their own... There is a future ;-)
Haha, no …
Similar boat here. When we picked chores long ago, wife picked laundry.
… Later on she complained about carrying baskets up and down the stairs, so I did that for her.
… Still later she complained about how she could never get them all done, so I started running them through the machines for her: I know how to use a timer.
… then she complained about how long it took to fold, so the minions fold their own and I fold sheets and towels as well as my own
… then when we got divorced, she was still complaining about how much of a hassle laundry was
Now the minions are teens and I made sure they knew how to run the machines, but it more efficient for me to run everything through, and we split the folding
