I am a neat freak, but I can never seem to get the laundry folded. I have so much of it and there are only 3 of us. My hubby and daughter change twice a day and then the bed clothes. I have a big pile of laundry that is just laying on the floor in the corner of my room, but I can muscle it up to do it all. I usually pick through the towels, underwear, and socks.. but after that .. that’s it.. no more.. LOL
Other than that.. my house is sparkling clean.

Sometimes i get to it right then, sometimes it has to wait until a little later. I am a neat freak too.

I have to say that we fold the washing as it comes off the clothesline and it does pay dividends in that it makes life easier because as soon as we bring the clothes basket inside, we can immediately put things away. The other thing is that I think 'iron' is a 4 letter word and by folding things immediately they often need little or no ironing, which absolutely suits me. LOL

I don't like to do laundry as well. We don't have to do that much, as we are only two at our house, me and my hubby. At least twice a week we do our laundry. But I am lazy to fold all the cloths. Some time I do it right way and some time it takes little time to fold.

I have been sick so not it is really bad. I have about 2 weeks worth of cloths sitting in there to be folded. I told my daughter I would pay her $5 to sort it all into towels, socks, shirts, and short piles. So hopefully I can get it all done tonight :)

I fold my laundry right away and put it into the drawers or on hangers. My daughter takes forever I end up folding her clothes and my grandaughters clothes but, I let her put them away. It really frustrates me. God Bless

Yes I fold and put away as soon as they are done. I am sure if I was doing laundry for 3 it would get harder to keep up with. I wash, dry, fold, hang, put away while washing another load and keep going through the motions until they are all done.

I usually grab what I need right away, then leave the rest to be folded at a later time.

I put my clothes on hangers or fold it as I take it out of the dryer. If I don't, it never gets done. Socks. They are a different story. I hate matching up socks. I throw all the socks in a basket and only pair them up when I absolutely have to.

I fold right away because if I dont I will get lazy and not want to do it later.
