getting over it
so a LONG time ago (like maybe close to 7yrs back) i lived with a dear dear friend of mine. Said friend one day was putting away her laundry and folding it etc. I offered to help so that we could be done with chores and go and have some fun or do something else. to this said friend said "no you don't fold it right." i offered to learn. still they said no.
since this time i have been....picky about the way that i fold clothes. feeling like maybe i could improve my folding skills or....something. it takes a while to get the clothes all lined up this way. and my kids ALWAYS find a way to mess them up. *sigh* work down the drain.
i finally realized that this dear friend would NEVER know about me folding clothes b/c i haven't seen them in about 7yrs. anyway! all this time i have been feeling like i have to fold things just so. i have to try my best to get clothes just right to fit them where they go. now that being said yes the clothes fit better in thier drawers etc when they are folded right but it just takes up so much time. time i don't have. thus the clothes become a giant pile of clean clothes and i don't put them away and then the go into a pile that is dirty etc. horrible cycle!!!
TODAY i realized that it doesn't matter what that ONE person said SOOOOO long ago. they're my clothes. i fold them the way i do b/c it's fast i don't want to spend lots of time folding clothes. i also don't want a pile of clean clothes i want them organized so i can find what i want that's it.
so to said friend (whom i doubt is reading this!) "go suck eggs with your folded clothes" *spits razzberry*
i want to be in love with my laundry again.
also!!! I LOVE MY CLOTHESLINE!!! it's like the clothes are haft way folded b/c they are drying that way already. sorry sebi but i might never need that dryer hooked up :)
