I do all the laundry in the house for everyone and wouldn't be comfortable with someone else doing my laundry . As much of a chore as it is , I want to make sure everything is packed and put away where it belongs lol .
My husband has done the laundry when I have been away for a few days and I have always complained when I got home because he didn't pack something right or didn't put it where it belonged lol .
I have to do laundry every day to keep up with everything although it is not as bad as it used to be . There were seven of us living in the house and now we are down to five . Two people do actually make a big difference when it comes to doing the laundry :)

Hi,I do my own laundry as I have a washing machine in my apartment. I think from where I come from most household have a washing machine and laundry is done at home. I have never taken my clothes to the laundrette before. Anyway there's only my husband and me in the house so laundry is easy.

Same here, If i cant handle my laundry anymore i go to laundry shop to take care of it. But There are instances that i feel like crazy when my washing machine malfunction and i dont have extra cash to go to laundry shop, i have to use my bare hand and got plenty of sctaches.Too bad for me. Thanks for responding.

I do laundry. Although my wife does it most of the time. There are occasions where we do it together. I really help her especially when there are many used clothes to do laundry for. In that way, we also bond and talk anything under the sun. It's fun after all.

I do all the laundry in my house. We have 6 children, so it is a lot of laundry. They put their own clothes away. I would not feel comfortable with someone else doing my laundry. I do not think it is safe or very sanitary. You never know if it is all clean or if they forgot some. If I do it myself, I know that it is done and I know that it is done the way that I want it to be. There is no way for someone else to do it wrong or mess it up. Then, if something gets ruined in the wash, I know that there is no one but myself to blame.

I have two maids so I do the laundry ordinarily. However, thetre are times when i do my own laundry especially when i want to be sure that a particularly expensive dress or clothes of mine will not be ruined. I however know how to do laundry so if my maids suddenly decide to go home i can do the laundry. I have a washing machine at home so i don't need to bring the laundry to a laundromat

Nope! My mum is the one who is doing the laundry for the whole family. But it's me and my sister job to fold it and put it back to the cupboard. We have no choice to postpone it because my mum definitely will scream at us if we did so. Lol!

Since we have a washing machine at home, so everything seems to be simple and easy. When we have more clothes, then I just put the washing powder and clothes inside the washing machine. And it will be done by itself. It's very convenient.
I love China

I usually do laundry on Sunday's too because I work Monday through Friday and do my weekly grocery shopping on Saturday. You need to give yourself a bit of a break though. When you sometimes don't feel like doing your own laundry, it's not because you're lazy...it's because you're tired! There aren't any places near me that do laundry or I'd probably let someone else do mine once in awhile, too.

I am too lazy to do the laundry. Lolzz... My mom and dad do all the laundry in the house. I don't have to worry much about all that.
Sometimes when my parents go out of town then in those cases I do the laundry. And I just hate doing it. Its such a pain and so boring too. But soon once I go out of my house for my job over there I will have do do all the laundry myself.
Its not that I don't know to do it. Its just that its too boring and so long as there is someone to do it for me I'm happy and not much bothered.

I always do my own laundry, as well as my husband's and daughter's too. I don't have the money to be lazy and go to a laundry shop. Never heard of them actually. I would if I could though. I don't really mind doing laundry, but it piles up so quick. I am working on laundry more than anything. Sometimes a break would be nice.
