I should be doing Laundry
I have a serious problem, as I am sure many other women do…The Guilt. Whenever I sit down to do anything, I can think of at least one million other things that I should be doing, one of which is always Laundry!!! Laundry is never ending at my house, and the thing that really peeves me off, is when my kids throw CLEAN clothes in to be washed (as if I do not have enough dirty, hey, lets rewash all the clean stuff, too). So here I sit, feeling guilty because I should be doing laundry, cleaning a bathroom, mopping the floor, grinding wheat into flour to make home made bread, you know, something of that nature. So how do I rid myself of some of the endless guilt that plagues my life? I have tried many methods, my latest; I like to call it “Living in Denial”. “That Bathroom is not that dirty” “This shirt can be reworn” “Those aren’t that wrinkly”. It is a temporary fix, I know, but it is working for me (kinda). The only time I do not have guilt over one thing or another, is when we are on vacation and I can just focus on family, well, we all know you can’t vacation all the time. So anyway, I got to go, I am hand weaving a basket, and brandishing a small blanket out of real rabbit fur, while boondoggling key chains for neighborhood Christmas gifts, oh yeah, and laundry….Anyone living the guilt free life, let me in on your secret.!

Maybe you're too hard on yourself. Whenever you're doing laundry, try thinking, hey, I should be watching TV!
my favorite thing to do is watch tv while I do laundry. Of course, my favorite thing is never to do laundry, but a cold diet coke and some tv at least makes it do-able
