Laundry

Have you ever noticed that the laundry is NEVER done?  Seriously, the only way that the laundry could be completely done is if everyone went naked, used no towel, sheet, or blanket.  Then, the laundry would be done.  Just for one day, maybe I wouldn’t forget something in the dryer and let it wrinkle.  Or worse, the washer and make it stink.  I wouldn’t have to put it away and bemoan my lack of drawer space. 

Sometimes life is just an endless cycle of laundry.  Cleaning up the same articles of clothing over and over again. Losing the same pound over and over again.  Having the same conversation over and over again.  Bringing up the same argument over and over again.  Ad Nauseum.  Ad Infinitum. 

I don’t know if it’s a bad thing, really.  But, just like laundry can be – it all gets a bit mundane.  Into the washer.  Into the dryer.  Fold or hang.  Put away.  Put in the basket.  Repeat.  But then again, what if for one day, you didn’t have to remind someone to brush their teeth or plead with someone to close the door. 

When you think about it, laundry is a pretty convenient thing.  If you have a washer and dryer and clothes to put in it, you’re doing pretty well for yourself.  If you have people to cook and clean for and remind to turn off the light, it means you’re not alone. 

All of these lessons brought to you by a basket of mismatched socks.
