You know you're not managing laundry chores well when...

You have to dump last week's clean clothes from the laundry basket so you can add this week's dirty clothes to carry them down the hall.

You find your sock, that you didn't even know you were missing, pinned to the corkboard of the laundry room. And this is the second time you've left a sock in there.

For the third week you completely forget about your laundry and go back an hour after it's done, hoping no one's moved it. Well okay, that one shouldn't be a surprise. Even at home, I couldn't remember laundry to save my life. It became the family joke. My mother could ask me to take something out of the dryer when it finished, it could finish literally 3 minutes later, and I would completely forget. For days even, if I didn't need something from there. (Literally - once when I was home alone for a couple weeks, the towels stayed in the dryer for about 4 days).

I'm not at all good at this laundry thing. And I don't think the remembering will ever improve.
