Vicious Cycle!

I get absolutely nothing accomplished on Mondays. Always, there are good intentions, but rarely, does anything really get accomplished.

I did get a couple of loads of laundry done, but, really, does that count? It is just a constant in our lives and is never really anything to be accomplished, just something to get out of the way.

So, there it is...out of the way.

Honestly, it is not really out of the way, either. It is cleaned and, most of it, is folded, but there it sits. Quite RIGHT IN THE WAY. On our bed. So, the next logical move would be to get it out of the way by putting it away. (I should be doing that right now ~ but I am not.) So, later this evening, it will likely get moved to the handy dandy bench at the foot of our bed with some of the laundry that I completed last week.

Oh, crud! That bench is overflowing with last week's laundry and so is the rocking chair. Guess I will have to shove some of the crap over on my window "seat" to make room to put the neatly folded piles of clean laundry. Soon enough, they will no longer be folded neatly, as I will be rummaging through the piles to find what it is that I will be wearing the next day or two. And the rest of the pile will likely get knocked onto the floor when the kids rush to the window to see the bus pulling up with their big brother.

I will complain...but I know that I am the one to blame.

I will want a place to sit to re-fold things, but the damn laundry is still on my bench, and in my rocking chair, some on the floor and the bed is now overflowing with yet another full load of laundry freshly pulled from the dryer....

Girl, just get off your butt and put that stinking laundry away!

It is a vicious cycle...a vicious wash cycle.

Isn't that the truth? I've always said that I just wish I had someone to come over to put my laundry away. I can do everything else......but I hate to put it away. Now that my children are of child slave age, one would think it would be easier....but they have their mother's hatred of putting the laundry away as well. Oh well......
