Laundry et al

I'm sorry to perseverate about the laundry situation here, but it is really disturbing how much of my time is spent on the laundry. I've really been careful about inspecting clothes to make sure they really need to be washed before they go in the hamper, but it just continues to pile up and pile up. I'm reluctant to hang out with my friends during the week because I might fall behind in the laundry. Just when I start to get on top of it...it's time to change the sheets. Or wash the diapers. Or Penelope comes down with a stomach bug featuring diaper-busting you-know-what. It's really depressing.
