I just want everyone to know that in the span of 3 days, I have made 3 loads of laundry, and have a 4th already sorted and ready to go (which includes towels / blankets / bedding). I still need to fold them and put them away BUT the important part is done 🥹

#once i out them all away i need to wash my plushies too but i'll leave it for next weekend #the laundry situation was bugging me A LOT. almost ran out of socks #why is laundry the most arduous and daunting of house chores? even dishes are much easier to get through #that post about making coffee in a million steps really resonates with me #because that's what doing laundry feels like. it's not just “wash clothes and put them away”#it's gather all dirty clothing in one place -> double check my “in use” clothes to see what also needs to be washed -> separate by colour #put on the washer -> take off the washer -> check if the clothesline is empty (and empty if not)#put them on the clothesline to dry -> empty the clothesline -> bring them to my room -> sort and fold -> put away -> rinse and repeat #many many steps. putting them outside to dry takes so long and so much energy out of me ugh #(no we do not use dryers here. that's not a thing. also i've had the experience back in the uk and while very convenient #it wears the fabric down so so much. clothes nowadays are made so flimsy and terrible quality #and using a dryer ruined a few of my favourite shirts. i do miss having warm sheets straight away tho)#but yeah. adult does basic chore whomp whomp (it's hard. i get it. you get it. i'm proud of myself and everyone else who has done A Task)#darya talks to herself
