If you love mildew scented clothes![/quote]Then, start a load when you get home. Put it in the dryer at dinner time. Fold it and put it away after dinner.  You can still manage to do ONE load a day.  Use your critical thinking skills.  This isn’t rocket science.[/quote]

We get home and are making dinner, cleaning kitchen, helping kids with homework. And sometimes finishing work. [/quote] Then, add in a load to the nightly chores.  It is a simple task.   The time sink for laundry is when it is in the machine.  You are still thinking about how much laundry takes you in the weekend.  That’s 7 loads (according to the OP). This is ONE load.  Kids can pick up this task at a young age - that works too.

Get home, go to the bathroom. Put a load in the wash.  Get kids settled with whatever they do before dinner. Start dinner. After dinner, when one of you is cleaning up the dishes, the other swaps clothes from washer to dryer.  Then, fold later in the evening when it is done.
