laundry help needed asap
Quote from sandy69 on July 10, 2019, 6:27 pmLord have mercy. It's 9pm and the hamper is overflowing again. My youngest spilled juice all over his favorite shirt yesterday, and now I have three loads to do before work tomorrow. Went to Target for detergent, spent $40 on just that and some snacks. Felt like I was going to cry in the cereal aisle. And don't even get me started on folding. It piles up. Is there a trick to this that I'm missing?

Quote from Gentle72 on July 24, 2019, 11:19 am@sandy69 that spaghetti sauce sounds like a nightmare! I'm glad you've got that stain stick handy. I always forget to keep one in my purse.
