[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I get it. I have a DH who likes to claim he "did 4 loads of laundry today" when he's working from home but what he actually did was move 4 loads of laundry through the machines and then pile them all on a chair in the living room where they will stay for days unless I give up and fold them first. I've told him that I don't really consider myself to have done a load of laundry until it's put away and he was like "oh you're too hard on yourself -- I think just getting it cleaned is an accomplishment."

:cry: [/quote]

This would break me.

[b]The hardest part of laundry is folding it and putting it away after. If you don't fold it right away then it's wrinkly and you have to look at each thing and decide to fluff it or iron to make it look decent. [/b]

Finding a massive unwashed pile of clothing in the hamper is preferable to encountering a mystery stack of wrinkled but clean clothes.[/quote]

Couldn't agree more.  This is why everyone in our house now does their own laundry.  If they don't want to fold it and rummage through a wrinkled pile of clothes, have at it.  I won't take my stuff out of the dryer until I'm able to fold it.  Sometimes I run it again briefly to dewrinkle but clean laundry thrown in a pile somewhere is no longer clean.  At least mine isn't.  They can do whatever they want with theirs. [/quote]

In our house, if your clothes are in the dryer when someone else needs to use it, your clothes are getting stuffed into a basket. [/quote]
