I'm still keeping up with the washing, not so much the putting away. My laundry basket is getting a little full. I'm not going to push myself today as I have to go to school and may be exhausted tonight but Friday I'll definitely get to work on getting everything put away. I'm down to just one box of unwashed and unsorted clothes, yay! Then it's just laundry maintenance from there on out.

I posted in WIT's yesterday as I worked. I did get all the dirty laundry done that I wanted. I won't say every stitch in the house, but almost everything. Everything I gathered together in the morning.
1 load darks - washed, dried, folded/hung & put away 1 load lights - washed, dried, folded/hung & put away 1 load towels - washed, dried and put away
I have no intention of washing any clothes today. Not enough for a load of anything (tomorrow there will be.) But I may strip a couple beds.

I have a second load in the dryer and one in the washer. I'm one more load away from maintenance. I also noticed the floor around my dryer was a little yucky so I swept it.

WTG irisbloom! I have fallen back into the hole! I was doing great while my MIL visited and I had 9 days vacation. Then I got sick for 2 weeks. ugh!! I worked on catching up backlog of clean laundry needing to be folded & put away yesterday. I had 4 loads of clothes and 2 loads of linens. Hubby helped me with the clothes before he went to work. I did all the linens and the socks. Then washed 3 more. I got 2 of those loads, which were clothes all hung up/folded & put away. Have a load of clean towels in dryer waiting for me for today. And then oh gee I think I had a load of linens and 2 more loads of clothes to wash.

Back to my "catch up mode." I will have a day that I do okay with laundry and then it gets out of control again. It took me at least 15 minutes just to round up the laundry today and get it all to the laundry room. I had 3 loads of clothes that were washed and sitting in baskets in my bedroom. So that back log was folded & put away with hubby's help. Got 2 more loads of clothes washed, folded/hung and put away. Plus 2 loads of bedding folded & put away (part of it put on beds.)
I'm looking at 2 more loads in the machines tonight and then I am going to stop. But I do have a few more still to wash.

Folded/hung load of laundry (got to toss a clean, but holey sock), put that load away. Moved a load from washer to dryer, folded load & put it away. Put another load in washer, moved load to dryer & hung the hang-dry things. CD

Good job cando!! I have been on the laundry catch up train for weeks now. I started coming down with a cold Thursday evening. I am better than yesterday but not better. Saturday I forced myself to fold & put away 4 loads of clothes just to make room in my bedroom ... well there is room but my little boy thinks it's grand fun to dump the baskets out in the room. I was totally zapped Sunday and yesterday I forced myself to wash a couple loads. I am off to tackle those now.

So I tackled it yesterday and came out alive!!! Folded & put away load #1 clothes - already washed previous day Folded & put away load #2 clothes- already washed previous day Folded & put away load #3 clothes Folded & put away load #4 clothes ALL SOCKS MATCHED --- well except those stragglers that are still missing their mates, but did match some lost souls Folded & put away large blanket Folded & put away set sheets I have a comforter in the dryer I need to put away this morning. It wasn't dry before I went to bed so I gave it more time. And I have some rugs in the washer. I would lovvvvve to say I'm caught up. I am caught up enough to feel good. But geez louise these people and their clothing usage! I found clothes hidden in 8 yo's closet after I had got the lights washed. My 15yo dumped one or two sets on the floor yesterday (she's not feeling well) and my hubby came home with wet clothes from his adventure. I have 2 good size baskets (probably medium loads) of clothes now .... one dark and one light. I may just have to go ahead and wash at least one today so I don't feel like I'm falling behind by tomorrow. !
