My mom always warned me (helpfully) that out of control laundry is indicative of bigger and deeper disorder. As usual she was correct, and I'm pleased to say that in these days of APPARENT disorder-- in the long process of eventually moving from a 3-fam PA house to a 1-fam OH house-- MOST of the issues turn out to yield to doing some LAUNDRY.

Cuz I been good about purging other crap as I went along. And I have even been known to get rid of stuff after washing it, cuz really, there isn't always room to put away every last stitch.
