Movin' Down The Line
Now, really! Is there anything else you would have rather seen when clicking over here today than my ginormous piles of dirty laundry? I didn't think so.
Ok, so maybe this face, or this one, but the laundry piles are what I've got for ya today! They're what I've got for me today!
I'm making progress...sloooooooow, but steady progress. We leave for our trip to Florida on Thursday, and with each clean and folded little boy shirt and pair of matching white socks, I'm getting more and more excited!
So, in order to fully concentrate on the task at hand, I'm gonna take a little bloggy break until I can make it aaallllllll the way down this line and finish filling our suitcases with t-shirts, shorts, and bathing suits. And diapers. And toys. And DVD's. And wedding attire. And cameras. And sunscreen. And, the list keeps growing. (Much to my sweet husband's dismay, my packing list is longer than a "we haven't been food shopping in a month" grocery receipt!)
BUT, I'll have one more post before we leave on Thursday. It's a little something I've been working on. Hmmmmm. What could it be?
See you when the baskets are empty...
You can always bring a smile to my face - even if it is with a picture of your laundry piles!
ReplyDeleteI hope packing goes well - and I'll tell you what my hubby always tells me - "If we forget it, we can always by it when we get there."
Honestly, I've considered forgetting most of my wardrobe and shoes just so I could go on a shopping spree...but I know you know what he means! :D
Happy Laundering and Happy Packing!
Hey, when did you sneak into my house and take a picture of my laundry? That's just not nice! No, seriously, I hopped over from Janelle's blog, and about died laughing when I saw your pic! Good luck on your trip!
ReplyDeleteI'm a gingerbread house, go figure. Cute!
ReplyDeleteI would really like to help you with that laundry...really! I feel really, really bad that I don't have a car...REALLY!
I hope you feel really bad leaving me here in Michigan in the cold and rain...REALLY!
Florida sounds pretty good - it's been feeling a little too cold here for me. Good luck with the laundry and have a great trip!
ReplyDeleteYou DO always know how to make us smile. Even in the midst of your laundry craziness!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a Gingerbread House too!!
Have fun packing...just keep your eye on the prize! Florida...Florida...Florida...
I hope those baskes are clean now, and that you're resting somewhere eating some yummy chips or tasty cakes. (Can't remember the names of them)
Your posts just have a way of putting a smile on my face! Boy, can I relate to this one...laundry coming out of my ears. I hope you have a wonderful trip & I'll be anxious to hear all about it!!
ReplyDeleteSoooo, I see three baskets and one pile... misery loves company... I have five, count them FIVE loads, PLUS sheets AND towels AND the guestroom linens which were used this weekend... and you know that I iron EVERYTHING... THANK GOD FOR MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL!!!
ReplyDelete:)
My laundry room looks the same today. Although I have nothing to look forward to once it is complete. I hope you have a BLAST on your trip. I can't wait to read more about it.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the bottom of the laundry pile in I don't know how long. It is bad at my house. Hope you were able to "press" through it :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, Sarah -- I am RIGHT there with you. I ditched the laundry today so it is still there -- hubby had the day off, and well -- priorities. :) My baskets are tall cylinders though, so I have two crammed full and one flat one piled high. Best of luck!!
ReplyDeleteHappy packing!
ReplyDeleteLaundry is covering the basement floor right now in this house as well :)
Hysterical!!! I think it is equally funny that you even have 5 laundry baskets to display your chore for the day. You know laundry is an ongoing task in this house with our TOTALLY INEFFICIENT washer/drier combo. Can't wait to hear how much fun you have at Russ's wedding. Find out if she was Amish (my guess is Mennonite)!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your post later this week. I'll be checking!
Can't wait! We are leaving for our trip on Friday so i can totally relate! You will be warm; I will be cold, really cold. Have fun and wear some sunscreen for me! =)
ReplyDeletealoha!
ReplyDeletewhat i want to know is what are the boy's and you and your husband wearing? seems like everything you own is in those baskets. good luck. and in case i don't have a chance to say it before you leave... have a great time.
Oh man... I've been there, girl. I hope you have a fantastic time at your brother's wedding! And get some rest in FLA, too!
ReplyDeletei am a laundry 'day' kind of gal. monday's and friday's. get it all done so that i don't have to think about the mountain over taking us.
ReplyDeletehave fun!
Looks like you took a picture of my laundry room - only I have about 2 more loads of towels to wash than you. Doesnt that make you feel better?
ReplyDelete:-O
ReplyDeleteI am chuckling...but with my boys this arrangement would be an invitation to *island hop* and the baskets would end up all over the room...
ReplyDeletethose were the days!!
Sounds like you have everything figured out...

Takes alot of confidence to air one's dirty laundry.....Hope you can get it all in one suitcase...Have a safe and wonderful trip...and please give your bro' and his bride our love. Love you.
ReplyDeleteAh laundry. It's never ending.
ReplyDeleteGuess what I'm doing right now...laundry. But then again I do laundry every day.
So I guess this is it??? Cause I have been trying for 19 years and I didn't realize that baskets COULD BE EMPTIED!!!LOL
ReplyDeleteAtleast you have a dryer to do it in! I miss modern ammenities. I don't understand why we still hang our laundry in Japan----yes, even during wintertime. Ugh. But, thank you Lord for clean clothes!
ReplyDeleteGet the laundry done and enjoy your trip!! Catch up with you soon.
