How I Stay On Top Of Laundry

December 11, 2018 by not your average mom 3 Comments

Last week someone asked me how I handle our laundry. While I am still working on some areas of my life, in the last year I have managed to come up with a system that works well for us and allows me to stay on top of the laundry situation. Up until November or 2017, […]

One Room At A Time

January 22, 2018 by not your average mom 6 Comments

If you’ve been around the past few weeks, you know I’ve been getting organized. But this time it’s not just another okay-it’s-time-to-throw-some-sh*t-away freakout.

How We Handle Laundry

February 13, 2016 by not your average mom 2 Comments

When you have a big family, inevitably one of the first comments people always make is about laundry. How many loads of laundry do you do every week??? We definitely have a lot of laundry. It used to be impossible for me to keep up with it, and my dining room table almost always looked like […]
