We have a canvas double hamper in the laundry room and when one side is full, it's time to sort and start a load in the morning. My "nest" is getting smaller, so there are times when I can skip a day, but I function much better knowing there is not a huge mountain of laundry waiting around the corner. That is overwhelming to me. I also have a sensitive nose and can tell when things are getting, well, not so fresh, way before the rest of my family can, so I love to get those sweaty basketball clothes and muddy gardening jeans into the wash rather than letting them hang around too long! I even like ironing, especially with scented linen water and a good Jane Austen movie, but I guess that's a whole other subject. I like laundry everyday too.

She "centers herself" by starting a load of laundry everyday. How is it that I only do 3 loads once a week.. of my laundry (with hubby and baby) and the kids do their own? I guess it's because I like the big job of tackling the pile once a week. Different strokes.. Anyway, I do like the washer!! That is so cool. You sound like my mother!!

I think your routine of getting it in first thing in the morning would sure help. I went to an every day model of laundry a while ago, and it sure does streamline things. I can't imagine trying to do all our laundry on one day, and there are only five of us. I know if the Lord ever allows us to hit the eleven mark, I'm going to have to get a lot better organized about my laundry habits! Laundry is a hard one for me.

I do all the laundry for our family on Mondays - but I'm sure I would adopt your system if our family ever grew from 4 to 11! Thanks for your comment on my blog!
