[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I put the extra money towards travel and savings.

I’m baffled by people who complain about laundry. You put it in and walk away. What’s so hard?

Cleaners would be nice but I’d rather have that money for a nicer vacation. [/quote]

Do you actually do the laundry in your house? Putting it in is one of many steps. Sorting, washing, drying, folding, putting away. Let me guess, your wife does all the laundry? [/quote]
Seriously. Laundry is the bane of my existence. [/quote]

But 8-10 hours? I do laundry twice a week for myself and two kids. DH does his own. It is not 8-10 hours. But I don’t pre-sort or iron, and kids put their own laundry away once I fold it - plus I’ve stopped turning the clothes right side in. They can do that when they wear it and they do, even if they somehow can’t manage to do it before they drop it in the hamper. [/quote]

+1. I can’t figure out how laundry takes 8-10 hours. Are people changing 7 times a day? We have a family of 4 and we run one white load and one color load a week. It definitely doesn’t take 8-10 hours.

There's no way this is true unless your kids are tiny. Mine are 13, 15 and 17 who play sports. Easily we can do a load a day, not counting towels and sheets. [/quote]

My 15 and 17 year olds play sports. They do their own laundry.

Does the 8-10 hours count run time for the washing machine and dryer? That’s the only way I can see it add it.[/quote]
