I'll be the judge of that

Laundry is my enemy.  It is an unending task. Just when you think you are done another pile forms and you've got to do it all over again.  You would think that the baby would be the biggest producer of dirty laundry, but in fact, it is my husband.  Ben refuses to wear things more than once.  It's not like I expect him to wear his socks or undies several days in a row, but you can certainly get more than one wear out of a pair of jeans!  Heck, for me, my jeans don't even fit right until the second or third wear.  Since Ben is in construction he is used to getting dirt on his jeans, but he now spends most of his time in the office.  So from here on out before those jeans make it into the wash I am going to take a look to see if they qualify.  If they still look clean I am going to fold them and put them back in his drawer.  He'll never know.  Unless you tell him.  Please don't tell!  Just think, I am saving the earth one not so dirty pair of jeans at a time.  And most importantly I am saving my sanity too.

  1. Keith wears his work clothes until they are visibly soiled before I take them to the wash. Sometimes I have to take them off their hangers and out of the closet to clean them because he doesn't even notice!

    Great job saving the planet, Camille. I won't tell Ben!
