    so just so I am clear on how this works...does the clean not-put- away clothing go next to the un-made bed? or should it only be done with a made bed? and is this clean laundry suppose to be folded or not folded.....I can't wait to try this, my husband will be thrilled LOL
    My clean not-put away clothing goes on my semi made bed and it's definitely not folded. Folded laundry gets kicked off the bed easier. Lol I'm sure your husband will absolutely love this little trick you picked up while browsing the MFP forums :P

    If I do multiple loads in a day everything gets put away except for the last load. I just lose my motivation to put things away after 4 or 5 loads lol

    THIS IS ME!!!!!!! I do so well on the weekends catching up... but that last load....... just ..... nope!

    I guess I need to make my last load the bed sheets, so I will HAVE to put them on the bed and put them away!!! :)

    What a smart idea!! Bed sheets last! Never thought of that. Thanks! :)

    Uurgh. This reminds me... I need to do laundry... Sigh. Off I go.

    And, to the OP - no, not the only one. Not by a long shot.

    I work at home so my laundry these days is usually socks, underthings, workout clothes and pajamas. Those items do not need folding or putting away in my opinion :laugh:

    Exactly. Why fold them when you'll wear them again the next day.

    Socks are a never ending battle to find a match
    Panties don't get folded
    And workout clothes are too slippery or oddly shaped to fold so screw it! I like your style girl

    If I don't put it away immediately, it winds up staying in the bag for at least a few days :blushing: And I hate it, because it means more ironing later - really love it when I can manage to dry and hang things right away to avoid ironing. I did get a steam iron that does it quicker, but still.

    I think it's totally because of laundry binges. When i spread it out over the week, it's more manageable.

    AND, I have good closet and drawer space, hooks, and a rack for clothes that are 'in between' clean and dirty (just for sweaters & pants, obviously). Still, if I get it wrong it stays in the bag :(

    This is why I panic when anyone comes to stay. We use the spare bed as the clean clothes dumping ground. It's only my Hubbys suits that always get hung up, and his shirts only get ironed as & when he needs them.
    I hate housework.:devil:

    Typically my husband does the laundry and folds it but leaves on top of the dresser until I get tired of seeing it there. Sometimes it just stays until we wear it all again and other times I can't take it after a couple of days.

    Amazingly, since I got rid of all of my "too big" clothes and am working to keep the number of pieces of clothes down to "30", I put up all my clothes. but when I did laundry once a week, the chair in my bedroom was where my clean clothes belonged...

    I have a "floor wardrobe"

    Got a tiny room with very little closet space, my clothes live on the floor, alas.

    I have 2 clean loads sitting in two piles next to my bed. I just start taking my clothes from them to wear every day....procrastination is a beautiful thing.

    Story of my life

    I do my ironing in the dining room and it has been known to move about the room for a few days before its eventually taken upstairs. To be fair though, there's 4 of us in the house so that's 4 piles of ironing to move!!!
