Laundry: The never-ending thankless task

Have I told you guys how much I absolutely hate laundry? I seriously think that laundry is the devil’s work. It’s the 9th circle of hell, and it never ends. Every week it seems there’s more and more and I never have enough time to really get it done.
Let’s take a look at exhibt A:
... it's swallowing my couch whole.
That is currently my couch. Well, was my couch last night. That is a week’s worth of laundry for Zack and I. As you can see, it’s currently swallowing my couch whole and I think it was starting to become sentient. It’s possible - if I hadn’t hung it up that poor Sonya would have met an untimely demise under the weight of the clothes landslide that was falling off the couch while I’m at work.
Last night Zack and I spent some time with his parents and then we went grocery shopping. We did our typical, “grocery shop when you’re super hungry and see what you end up with” grocery run and spent a little more than $150. Thinking about the money we spend, we typically spend about $150 every two weeks which is about $300 a month. Considering we only eat out and spend money on food typically 4 times a month now, that’s pretty good.
We totally fell victim to the 10 for 10 deals on frozen dinners at Bloom though, as you can see from my freezer:
Zack got Hungry Man, because he's a hungry man!
Notice the return of the Michelina’s Pizza Snack Rolls? I think Zack almost made a mess in his pants when he discovered they were 10 for 10. Although, looking at that post that I linked - I bitched about the fact that Zack didn’t eat the honey chicken stir-fry that I made. Today, he totally chowed down on the steak stir-fry I did with a hint of molasses.
This post is brought to you by the fact that right now I feel like a domestic goddess.
What excites you most at a grocery store?
