aloha friday #11

alohafriday

Welcome to Aloha Friday!  This is a great chance to get to know each other by doing a little Q & A.  If you want to play along, visit An Island Life!

My question this week:

How many loads of laundry do you typically do a week?

I do laundry at least twice a week, and I probably wash 6-8 loads every week.  Which means I have to fold and put away 6-8 loads every week.  I enjoy having the laundry baskets empty, but they sure don’t stay that way very long!!

I would say about 5-6. I find that linens are what keep me ever washing...there's always a load of linens (towels, sheets, blankets) that need washing. ARRGGHHHH! :)

And yes, I was sad that now my baby looks like a little boy. But he's still cute as ever...just so grown-y looking now. :)

Hmm I would say maybe 3 loads. One for Savi, whites and colors. Not to bad, I am sure that will expand as our family does;)

Brandi said...

We usually do around 4 or 5 but need to do more.

Yikes. Laundry never seems to end! I'd say probably 4-5 loads on average. It would help if Jacob did not want to wear the same 2 shirts and 2 pairs of pants each week! ;-)

I'd say about 5. give or take. I actually like to do laundry.. weird...

I typicaly do a load every day...there is always something waiting to be washed around here!

About 6, but 2-3 of those loads are or cloth diapers

When my son is gone....10. When my son is home, at least 20. Now, why is that :)

The Social Frog said...

One, sometimes two, not very often three,lol.

Tess said...

Hmm, good thing its not "How many should we do?" lol. I do probably 3 loads a week. Now, putting them away is another thing....

Unknown said...

Not sure -- I try and do a load a day -- that means wash dry and put away. So I can keep up with it. With 3 kids laundry piles up quick.

Optimistic Pessimist said...

I used to be good about it and would do one load every other night, now I've neglected the laundry and end up doing 5 or 6 on the weekend. It sucks because it feels like it takes up the entire weekend.

Valerie said...

None! My husband does all of the laundry!! Isn't that neat! But I have to fold the clothes. So I fold about 4-5 loads a week. lol

I'm late with my Aloha Friday!

Paging Doctor Mommy said...

I probably do between 6 yo 8 loads a week. Plus my husband always does 1 load of his work clothes. I can't guarantee that all of those loads always get folded and put away... at least they are clean!

Becca said...

I only do my own laundry (I have no family) and I do 2-3 loads every 1-2 weeks.

PMKU said...

About 2 a day so 14 a week. I'm not kidding. It's madness.

wife.mom.nurse said...

More than I can count!

How can they go through so many clothes????!!!!!

Rob said...

4-5 loads

kimert said...

I loathe laundry. I am embarrassed to say I probably do about 7 loads. We do at least one load a day, sometimes 2.

Jennifer said...

Sadly, 21! 3 loads a day. *sigh*

Erin said...

i would say at least 2 loads a day. sometimes none. but typically about 2. making it at least 14 in a week depending on what linens make it in there in that week.
putting it away is a longer story.

Unknown said...

Too darn many! lol I'd say at least 4 loads a day...ugh!

Megan said...

Well, in my attempt to keep "the laundry room" from not becoming a "mountain" again, I only do laundry once the 2 or 3 laundry baskets of clean clothes are already put away. lol And that takes a few days usually. SO, I'd say 2-4 loads a week (one is usually still in the dryer lol).

I do 3 load every day of the week. 3 times 7 =21! I knew it was bad, but now I type it, it sickens me.

At least this time of year I can hang my laundry outside!
