A houseful of girls

When I did laundry as a kid it was always whites and darks.

As I entered the workforce it became whites, darks and dry cleaning.

As I got married and started doing laundry for my wife, it became whites, darks, blacks, lighter colors, delicates and dry cleaning.

As we had our babies, it became whites, darks, blacks, lighter colors, delicates, dry cleaning and the newly added mystery-stain-treatment-Shout-the-living-daylights-out-of-it load.

Now, I'm doing laundry for a houseful of girls and it's become, whites, darks, blacks, lighter colors, earth tones, delicates, dry cleaning, Shout-the-living-daylights-out-of-it, and the newest load, pinks and purples.

Laundry is a full time gig.
