So many of us feel like we’re buried under piles of laundry. We have them in the bathroom, the bedroom, the laundry room, piled on the couch waiting to be folded… there’s laundry everywhere! There are many reasons laundry piles up like that: too many clothes, too little time, simple procrastination. You can solve your laundry problems with some simple time management and motivation.
First, try to dig out of the pile of dirty laundry. The easiest, and fastest way to do it is to take the whole pile to the laundromat. You can whip out all that laundry in just a few hours, and you can take some time for yourself to read a magazine or something. At this time of year, you can use that time to address greeting cards and write letters.
While you’re at the laundromat, make sure you fold everything. Bring hangers with you to hang the closet clothes. When you get home, momentum will make it easy to get the stuff put away in dressers and closets.
Now that the laundry is caught up, you can look at ways to cut it down. I couldn’t believe it when I saw a magazine article recommend to buy more socks and undies to cut down on laundry. The more clothes you have, the more it piles up! It’s tempting to keep putting off the laundry because you still have enough clean clothes to scrape by.
One way to cut down on laundry time is to cut down on clothes. One of my friends who recently pared down her family’s clothes found that she has gone from doing five loads of laundry a week to three! Start by giving away the clothes that don’t fit. They tend to sneak into the laundry room when they’re tried on and rejected. (If you want to keep some clothes because you plan to diet into them, put them in a box and mark a date on them. If they don’t fit on that date, give them away.) Then, give away the clothes that you and your kids just don’t like. You know, the clothes that tell you it’s laundry day because you’re forced to wear them. Get those out.
