We do the washing on the weekend. All 5 or 6 or 7 baskets of it. We fold it on Sunday night, if things are going swimmingly. Monday or Tuesday if not. And some weeks we're still fishing through baskets for something to wear on Friday. It's a pretty good indicator of how the rest of life is going.
I'm just going to add the Twitter feed and Twitpics from here on. But all I can say is thank 'heavens' I have google superpowers and a sonic screwdriver.
