Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I just did about 5 loads for the week, and didn't include the sheets or the delicates. The sheets alone are at least 2 loads, more if I wash the mattress pads. Ugh.

I sometimes separate by color, but more often I separate by weight and wash cycle (delicates, jeans, cold wash, hot wash, etc.).

Tonight is Open House at the school, but the kids didn't want to go so I am staying home with them and DH is heading up there after work. So much calmer this way! I approve.

Well, we made an offer. There was already an offer. Bear in mind the house listed at noon today. We'll see which offer they pick by 6pm tomorrow.

Digits crossed, flea.

Fingers crossed, flea. I loved the look of the house (color everyone shocked) but the signature in the old plaster, OMG!!!

I just did the bases of the rest of the spindles headed up. Still have the second floor ones. Couldn't deal with any more tonight. Did 13 top to bottom, all cut in, last night.

I do 2-3 loads of laundry every couple weeks. But then, I reuse towels, have no problem wearing the same pants a couplethree times if they stay clean and pretty much my inside clothes are worn until they get too much cathair on them or funky.... And I handwash my undies daily, so.

...which makes me sound like one of those mountain men who has to be cut out of their longjohns every spring....

But I'm not, really! Feelthy doesn't go on clean body and clean rarely goes on feethly.

Ugh. How do I respond to someone who seems perfectly nice but wrote me on okcupid and I have zero interest in? Side note: if you don't know the difference between "eludes" and "alludes" or "heel" and "heal", I WILL raise my eyebrows at you saying you want someone of "above-average intellect". IJS.

I get that, meara, but I do get emails from quite brilliant physicians and software engineers all the time that make me cringe for the abuse of language.

eta: also DH - brainy as can be, but never ever gets a there/their or then/than right. Makes me crazy.
