[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][twitter][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, come back and clarify why you do laundry every day. Basically everyone here thinks this is overkill.[/quote]

I do laundry every day because one of my kids is a bet wetter. But the clothes only get washed once a week. And honestly laundry takes minimal effort. Its not something that would add stress to my day one way or another.[/quote]

+1. It takes so little time to do a load of laundry. Especially if you don’t bother folding. [/quote]

+2, I start a load of laundry in the morning when I get up, I move it over at some point in the morning, then I look for an opportunity to fold in the afternoon/evening (conference calls are great for this). If I don't have time, DH and I knock it out together before or after dinner. It's probably a total of 10-15 minutes a day? Also we only fold sheets and towels and some of our clothes. Most of our clothes get hung up and putting clothes on hangars takes a lot less time than folding.[/quote]

Why do you fold sheets? Wash them and put them back on the beds the same day. So much easier. [/quote]

+1. Also solves the issue of needing two sets of sheets for every bed and a place to store them. [/quote]

No extra sheets at all? What if the dryer doesn’t finish before bedtime, or someone is sick in the middle of the night? This seems more stressful than learning to fold sheets.[/quote]

We have two guest bedrooms and older kids so this isn’t really an issue.[/quote]
