Feelin’ Kinda Redneck
Do y’all read Down to Earth? She is such an interesting lady. She had a wonderful post about laundry. And since laundry is my life, (well, it feels that way on most days) I was immediately drawn to it and had to check out the links she included. I was so inspired to get back [...]
The Plan – part 3 – Laundry
Laundry My washer is wonderful, my dryer is almost dead. I wash about 4-5 loads a day. More if the weather co-operates and I can hang it out on the line. The boys are getting bigger and go to work so many days in the week, where they must wear certain clothes and those certain [...]
Fighting the Fatigue

I may have cooked/melted/dissolved the soap, washing soda and Borax in [...]

I’m hoping to get some healing when I discontinue using industrial solvents on my head. Protect me from [...]
Help for Growing Families – laundry mountain
I’m trying to maintain my calm, cool demeanor. I know we all have gotten behind on the laundry job this week. Many of you have gone out of town for a few days. That’ll mess up your routine, huh? Me? No, I didn’t go out of town, but I took an impromptu laundry break. I [...]
