I am going back to my Dr. because my inhaler does not seem to be doing the trick. The fast acting one is fine, but you don't want to take that everyday.*sigh* if its not one thing, its another.loveaphidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10067787348020993061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5900428249402459681.post-33233156491304889272009-11-11T09:13:18.474-08:002009-11-11T09:13:18.474-08:00"Hi my name is Loveaphid and I have a Laundry..."Hi my name is Loveaphid and I have a Laundry Problem"<br />"Hi, Loveaphid."<br /><br />Yes it is true I do the laundry dance, just as described by my sister... ummm thanks Erin for that. She is absolutely right, I hate doing laundry and find very little satisfaction in its accomplishment, since you never actually DO accomplish it. There is always more. In fact while you are doing laundry (unless you do your laundry naked, which here in New England it can be just a little too cold for) you are in the process of making more laundry. It is never ever complete. Its like Sisyphus and the rock. It really annoys me. And since there is no reason to tackle it every day or even every other day, I just don't and so it piles up. We have enough clothes and underwear to go quite a long time with out needing to do a load, AND we have a laundry room where we can just shut the door. Out of sight out of mind (a.k.a. denial) can be a beautiful thing. Until you open the door, then its Ugh! Intellectually I see the value in doing laundry more regularly. Having smaller loads makes it easier to complete it soup to nuts rather than loosing steam just before the laundry gets put away. But the reality is that doing it more often really does not add to the quality of my life, save for giving me back the day that I give up to do all the laundry at once.<br />On the flip side though, I would like to not have laundry always looming on the horizon. I am trying to find my way to that place where doing my laundry more frequently is in fact something that improves and adds value to my daily existence. Right now though,Hanging out on a river in Egypt (de - nile) works just fine for me.loveaphidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10067787348020993061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5900428249402459681.post-85191478367632084142009-11-10T18:08:19.762-08:002009-11-10T18:08:19.762-08:00Yeah, I need to exercise today.

I do not give myself the option of not doing it so it is just a part of what I do every day.Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17084369711587089215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5900428249402459681.post-11485964437693802702009-11-10T07:46:49.918-08:002009-11-10T07:46:49.918-08:00I've had a laundry DAY for each person around ...I've had a laundry DAY for each person around here since we moved into this house 14 years ago. Pretty much the same day, did move it around some when #1 went to college, but that was really just him and Hubby, whom I do and #1 does. And yet, if you ask anyone around here when is their laundry day, they can not tell you. Despite the fact that I remind them every week, bring down your laundry, tomorrow is your laundry day. If they bring it down, I will start it for them and they can finish it after school. If not they have to do it all after school. In the summer you are on your own. Now 14 years is long enough for it to be a habit, but it is not. Things we want to do may become habits, but things we don't want to do will never become habits. We have to stay resolved and on task or we will get off that bandwagon as quickly as we hopped on it. That is just my experience. With 5 people, we each have a laundry day. Sundays I do mine and Dad's sheets and Thursdays (old day for #1) I do any rugs, curtains, etc that need to be done around the house. Routine is what makes the world go round and it's our word of the month. Getting back into a routine and staying there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5900428249402459681.post-33721629424895399582009-11-10T05:39:23.699-08:002009-11-10T05:39:23.699-08:00Amen!
