WDYT?

If you place something down your laundry shoot, say on a Tuesday, would you expect to have it clean by Friday? 

Also, does anyone besides me leave laundry in the washer?

Re: WDYT?

  • What's a laundry shoot?

    And I leave things in the washer, but never more than a few hours. 

  • Monday is laundry day.  Unless DH does his own load he won't get it by Friday.  I don't leave clothes in the washer.  I like to get it done in one day.
  • It's the equivalent of a hamper but delivers it directly to the basement via a shoot. 

    I should have just left the damn laundry dirty.

  • chute, O.

     

    And no, I don't have one so that's moot. Sometimes I do forget laundry in the washer for a few hours. :-/

  • Lord.  I wish I had excuse for my horrible grammar.  Chutechutchute.

    I forgot it overnight.  This is not the first time, and oops...of course H needed something that was formerly dirty, now clean, but not dry.  Wheee.  

     

    Welcome to Friday.

  • Just throw that one thing in the dryer. It should be dry pretty quickly. Sometimes we have to do this (terrible waste of electricity) because we're terrible procrastinators.

  • I have to go to a laundromat. I have to get it done in one shot. I hate it.
  • I would have done it if he hadn't come in and been all "where is this (item)"? Ugh.  He was kind of on my shitlist already so it didn't help.  I knew I shouldn't have not dried it or set it out (it can't be dried) but I figure if you put it in the dirty clothes, it's DIRTY and you won't be needing it until after ALL of the laundry is done.

  • We do laundry once a week, and we're both aware of the schedule, so I can't say that this has been an issue.
  • Laundry in the washer = stanky. So, no. I do laundry of Friday nights and it all gets done at once, except when I was the sheets in the middle of the week. That load gets done in one night and the same sheets go back on the bed.

  • I sometimes forget the stuff in the washer for a few hours, but I just turn on the rinse cycle and throw them in the dryer when they're done.

    We're averaging 4-5 loads per week.  You'd think I could remember when I have stuff in the washer.

  • The joy of a dry climate is that I can forget things in the washer overnight, and they're just mostly dry in the morning.

    My H knows that if it's in the hamper, it could be up to two weeks before he sees it again. We all have enough clothes and socks and underwear to get through that long, and I usually do laundry on Saturdays, about four-five loads, and it might all get folded by the following Monday. He hoards his clothes, though, so I have to demand them for laundry day.
