[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m assuming you don’t have kids?
We go through one load a day. Moving it from washer to dryer, then folding it, sorting it, putting it away. Not Terrible, it’s like 20-30min a day total time spent. But let’s say you go on a 3 day mini vacation. Or you get the flu and so 3 days. Suddenly you are 90 minutes in the hole. Now imagine that happens every other week- for some reason, ever 14 days, you have to skip a few days. That means you are not infrequently staying home on a Saturday so you can obsessively switch over laundry loads, fold, sort, put away, then repeat an hour later all afternoon. [/quote]

We're a family of 4 (one of whom is now in college) and never, ever, have any of us stayed home for a load of laundry. We separate thin fabrics that take less time to dry from heavier fabrics that take more time to dry, because each washing load goes directly into the dryer, minus the delicates bag that gets hung out to dry. There is no separation by owner or color or type of clothing except for the drying time factor. Over many years I've realized colors don't bleed (I do a separate wash of new items separately to make sure because we had 1 incident in 20 years, and then everything is treated the same).

Laundry is just not on our list of problems.[/quote]
