Dirty laundry

This is not about gossip. Is your house also cluttered with dirty laundry most of the time? I can no longer keep up washing towels, undies, jeans, shirts,.. As soon as the laundry has been washed, a new pile is waiting in the laundry basket. It's like putting lipstick on a pig, it never lasts long..

Thinking of our grandmothers and the way they had to wash their laundry, I believe we can't complain. And don't forget the number of children they had! But then again, the kids back then didn't change clothes every day. They had to wear their clothes for a whole week before they got a fresh outfit. Our children can't imagine having to wear the same clothes day after day. Imagine the smell of sweat and the stains and the dirt.

So I guess I'm going to put in another load of laundry. Another one.. too bad laundry needs to be ironed as well..
