Wash Day
Laundry – I dont know why but I like to do laundry! When this new attitude crept up on me Im not sure; I didnt always care for it. Hearing the washer and dryer running makes me feel good inside. The room feels cozy and it can look tidy and clean for awhile, not like the kitchen which gets messed up so quickly.
Mondays are my laundry day. This is the day that I try to get everything washed, ironed and put away. I dont always achieve this but I come close, at the very least making a pretty big dent in what has accumulated over the weekend.
My kids fold their own underclothes and on Mondays they iron 2 items (usually this is their Sunday church outfit that they wore the day before).
This laundry hamper works great. When any one of the three compartments become full it means a full load of laundry. One compartment holds jeans, rags, dark colored items; another holds coloreds and dish towels and the last holds all the whites. I hang my shirts while they are still quite wet (they are only in the dryer a few minutes) so that I will have less ironing to do.
Ahhh! Another wash day completed. How good it feels.
Attitude is so important. Any job can be satisfying if looked at with a proper frame of mind. Now to look at the rest of the house with the right attitude!
Laundry isnt about stacks and piles, or prespots and aromatic detergents. It is about people, and children, and babies and days clothed in colors and family. Laundry is memories. http://holyexperience.blogspot.com/
