Housework

[ailbhe]

Hung 3 loads of laundry outdoors, maybe 4
Rinsed two loads to hang
Put one load to wash
Sorted another few loads waiting to go on

The laundry pile was taller than I am, this morning. I have no idea how I'm going to catch up.

I also put away four loads of clean dry laundry; I've been prioritising clothes over bedding.

Filled and ran dishwasher
Supervised the children tidying their bedroom, which is so much harder than doing it for them I cannot begin to quantify it

Comforted an inconsolable Astrid, who is tired and unwell, with "just a cold" but it's making her extra miserable because of the sleep apnea

Fed ditto real solid food, which is kind of astonishing

Ate a little myself, but not enough

I hear you.

Whenever you write a ta-da list I think blimey, you do a lot of laundry. Then I remember that children are a major cause of laundry :) And even if they weren't, there are 2.5 times as many humans in your household as mine, so logically at least 2.5 times as many loads.

I hope you managed to fit yourself a proper meal in.

Yes, I wash a LOT of bedlinen, and duvets. And towels.

And cushions.

Basically, people pee on things in my house.

Yes, we don't do that so much.

Oddly, I hadn't thought of it. I had thought that children might be sick on things (I was sick a lot when I was a kid), or spill food on things, or spill things in general on things.
