lamenting the laundry

Colors, whites, darks and reds...I despise them all. Grungy socks with crusty toes...disgusting! Sweat soaked warm-ups turned inside out and shoved into the bottom of the hamper...gross! Damp beach towels saturated with sand and starting to grow mildew...nasty!



But when buzzer sounds and I witness the magical transformation that has taken place...the contents burning hot and smelling of springtime...aahhh! The neat little piles that I create for Alissa, Kinsey and Steven...make me happy.

I may complain, gripe and throw a two-year old tantrum from time to time when the piles get really huge...but secretly I love this one little gift that I can give to my family every week. Call me crazy.
