Winning the laundry fight . . .

I'm a listmaker. I'm an organizer. I'm a laundry tackler. So I combined my skills to get on a schedule for laundry. I've shared this with a few friends and they love it; maybe it will inspire you too!

Monday: Mommy's (mine)
Tuesday: Boy's
Wednesday: Whites
Thursday: Boys
Friday: Hubby
Saturday: Towels
Sunday: Sheets

I do one or two loads a day, putting them away quickly and then am able to move on with the day. It's so nice to get laundry out of the way early in the morning so it's not lingering on my list throughout the day.

And there you have it! :) Hope it helps you tackle this chore in your own home.

Lifelong learning . . .

It's so true. When I was enrolled in the school of ed at my college, it was the thing. The one thing that you could write or say that gave you a pass -  a free ride with the professors. LIFELONG LEARNING. I thought it was so silly that everyone threw it around like it was the magic word. The "please" word to my toddler, Flash.
But Saturday I had a revelation while talking with someone new, and when we met tonight, I had another one. And guess what? I am a LIFELONG learner. There is always something that can be learned, applied to life. And so, begins the next course of my life. Wish me luck!
