Stupid Laundry...

Am I the only person who wastes tons of electricity and water because I am constantly forgetting that I have clothes in the washer?

I love the feeling I get in the morning when I happen to walk by the washing machine and see a full load of washed laundry that has been sitting since the night before. Not wanting to take a chance of having musty smelling clothing I put in more detergent and turn the washer back on making a mental note to switch it over in a somewhat timely manner.

On the same note, there have been many instances where I have opened my dryer after throwing a load of clothing into it and realized that the clothes were still soaking wet because I forgot to turn the dryer on. This usually happens over 24 hours after putting the clothes in the dryer (my turnaround time on laundry can really suck sometimes) so back into the washer they go.

I can't even blame these things on the baby turning my brain into mush as I have been forgetting about laundry for years. I really hate laundry.

Kid Free- What to Do?

Tomorrow I have a much put off dentist's appointment and my mom offered to take the kids for the day.

I am sitting here wondering what to do with my kid free time. I could run around to snag deals at every store under the sun, I could relax (and when I say relax I mean clean the house) or I could do a little of both.

The only thing I know is that my brain feels like mush right now and putting together a shopping list is the last thing I want to do.
