are the naked and the dead." ~Emily Watts~

  1. Isn't that the truth. And I even have 2 washers side by side and I still can't keep up!! How's that for being pathetic!!

  2. I JUST finished ironing 15 of my husband's work shirts. I completely relate to this post!

  3. Copying your quote:)
    Happy Laundry Day (and every Laundry Day hereafter to you and yours:)
    My God Bless Your Washer and Dryer:)

  4. HAHA!! I think I'm going to have to hang that saying above my washer and dryer! Maybe I should make my kids go naked-at least the ones that stay at home with me.

  5. Ah, laundry! The never ending chore! HOWEVER, I am so thankful that the days of coin-op-laundromats-where-quarters-are-like-gold are gone! I am so grateful to have a washer and dryer in my house.

  6. Love, Love, Love the quote! LOL

    ReplyDelete
  7. How true is that! I'm hopelessly behind on laundry.

    ReplyDelete
  8. I can't stand laundry day. We live in an apartment complex and the washer and dryer are downstairs two levels and cost way too much. I can't wait to have my own!!

    ReplyDelete
  9. There are only two of us and I do 9 separate loads. Ridiculous? I think so, too.

    ReplyDelete
  10. It does seem to be a neverending project.

    sigh

    ReplyDelete
  11. That's a pretty funny yet oh so true saying! Three loads a day when all the kids were home. Two have moved out and I still do two loads a day. When it's sheets day then it's more. But aren't we grateful that we can have clean clothes and clean bodies? Can you imagine having to hand wash clothes? I'm very appreciative of my modern-day conveniences.

  12. Am I strange because I like laundry??
    YES!! It's my favorite chore...I don't know why.

    ReplyDelete
  13. wow that's true! And I'm doing laundry right now as we speak!

    ReplyDelete
  14. haha... i actually made the girls take their clothes off an hour before bed times so I could put their cothes in the wash. THey were running around in their underwear, but it meant I got all my washing done!;)

    ReplyDelete
  15. So funny and true!
    I'm doing laundry right now.
    It's a neverending task, isn't it?!?

  16. I have been lucky...I have a husband who washes and dries...I wrote about laundry on my blog awhile back and I love that quote !

    ReplyDelete
  17. So much truth contained in that little sentence!!!

    Blessings!

  18. My hubby helps me with the laundry. He puts the load in the washer and leaves it there all day. Then when I come home I have to move them. They are already wrinkled before I even put them over into the dryer.

    ReplyDelete
  19. How cute! That is so true! I have so much laundry to do before tomorrow...

    ReplyDelete
  20. So true. And I always tell my family they're not allowed to wear any more clothes when I have all the laundry done.

    ReplyDelete
  21. You couldn't have said that better. Sometimes I feel like making everybody strip down so it will be done if for just a moment.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I love doing laundry! the only thing I don't like doing is PUTTING it away

    ReplyDelete
  23. I hate laundry. It's always THERE! Waiting to be washed; waiting to be dried; waiting to be folded; and waiting weeks to be put away....And I live alone. With a cat. IhateitItellya!

    ReplyDelete
  24. I don't mind the washing or the drying really, it is the folding and putting away that I have serious issues with.

    ReplyDelete
  25. It seems I spend most my time doing laundry!

    ReplyDelete
  26. HA! I'm painting that on the laundry room door.

    I have tons of laundry to do as well. I did get the four loads of clean laundry that's been sitting around folded and put away. And all the dirty laundry strewn throughout the house all re-located to the laundry room and sorted. But that's as far as I've gotten.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I LOVE THIS QUOTE!!! I just may do it in calligraphy over my laundry room.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Love that quote! We've been out of town for a week so I'm in bigggg trouble.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Love this! If I was there I'd come help! ♥

    ReplyDelete
  30. How true! Just when you think you're done, someone has the nerve to wear clothes and get them dirty!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Thanks for visiting my blog! I look forward to following along here... you know, after I do my laundry! LOL :) I'll be back!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  37. Perfect post! There is no end to it, which, I suppose, is why the washing machine goes round and round!!! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  38. This sign is so cute. And laundry is truly NEVER done... which is so frustrating. The worst is the ironing!

    ReplyDelete
  39. That is so true. I love it. I am never on top of it really. It is surprising that I am not running around nekked.

    ReplyDelete
  40. After being out of town and trying to get caught up on laundry today, I completely agree with this quote! :)

    ReplyDelete
  41. I will come help you sweetie!

    ReplyDelete
  42. Alas, there are no dead OR naked people at my house, which is why I must do TWO loads a day - or drown!

    ReplyDelete
  43. That's what I call putting things into perspective...

    ReplyDelete
  44. Love it! Laundry never ends,it's such a vicious cycle!

    ReplyDelete
  45. So true! I don't mind doing the laundry, just folding it and putting it away. :op

    ReplyDelete
  46. So funny! That's how I feel about it.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Thanks for your visit, My laundry day this week is tomorrow. (Monday)

    ReplyDelete

    thanks for visiting my blog!

    ReplyDelete
  51. Thanks so much for visiting my blog today. I love your quote! So true - you should see the piles of laundry in my laundry room...or maybe not. Ugh.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Hilarious! I hate laundry! I really don't mind putting it in the washer but after that I'm done! LOL! xo Keli

    ReplyDelete
  53. Nice of you to stop by :).

    The funny thing about your post is that I did 5 loads of laundry in one day (while watching Judge Judy - please don't judge) when suddenly my husband said, "Do I have clean underwear?" I was thinking of course, I just did them!! But I stopped my scathing reply to think about it... it had actually been about 1 week ago I had done the 5-load-laundry-marathon. Doesn't that count for at LEAST 5 months?!

    Thanks for the great post.

    ReplyDelete
  54. That is a fact, the laundry will be the death of me, no doubt about it,

    Mark my words, they will someday find my rotting body in the laundry room under a pile

    ReplyDelete
  55. that is one of my favorite quotes. I even had it on my blog for a while. amen!

    ReplyDelete
  56. HA HA HA...too funny - I was just contemplating the piles upon piles of laundry I need to tackle tomorrow...really it will probably be my whole day tomorrow...ugh...

    Thanks for popping by my bloggy little world...I love visitors!!

    ReplyDelete
  57. So true!!! I think I may hold the record for how long a load of laundry can stay in the dryer...thanks for stopping by my blog! :)

    ReplyDelete
  58. just wanted to thank you for stopping in and commenting!

    thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  59. That's hilarious! Thanks for stopping by my blog!

    ReplyDelete
  60. this is totally me. i can wash and dry just fine. it's all that dang folding...

    ReplyDelete
  61. Sometimes I think about joining a nudist colony, just so I don't have to do laundry, my mortal enemy. But then I remember those awful dreams where you go to school naked, and wow, I'm just sharing way too much information with you. I'll stop now.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Yes! I agree. I hate laundry! I love that you stopped by and left a comment. I am now a follower and will be back to check you out more frequently!!!

    Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  63. So glad you dropped by!

    Love the laundry quote!

    ReplyDelete
  64. That is so true. I have been completely caught up with the laundry once, and it only lasted for about five seconds.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Havent thought of it like that before!

    ReplyDelete
  66. Yep. You get every stitch of material in the house clean, then collapse onto the couch... which has a wet patch on the cushions.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Okay, tell me how you've done it. You just started blogging this past month and you've got 149 followers! Gimme your secret!!!!!!!!!

    JUstine :o )

    ReplyDelete
  68. Haha, ain't that the truth! I feel like I'm always doing laundry, I swear it's never ending :-)

    Thanks for visting my blog...yours is quite cute!

    ReplyDelete
  69. Wow! What a great blog! I love the graphics too (especially).

    Laundry? I love the quote but thankfully I live in India! The sun is so hot it steam-dries the clothes in minutes. And there's always the guy who comes and collects the clothes for ironing (costs just a few cents in your currency). And when I'm super-lazy there's the neighbourhood 'dhobhi' (washerman) who'll wash, sun-dry and iron my clothes for a pittance.
    Funnily enough I enjoy ironing clothes (we all have our little quirks) --- that's when I do all my plotting and planning ;)

    Thanks for dropping by my blog and leading me here. I love it when I find blogs that I really enjoy reading :)

  70. Thanks for stopping by. Love your laundry joke. lol

    ReplyDelete
  71. Hahahaaa!

    Dang. I've got two loads to fold.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Amen to that, I was all caught up but since the holiday I'm gathering it all up from around the house and looks like 6 more loads.

    What a great quote too...gave me a good little chuck this afternoon.

  73. The only one who gpt all his work done by Friday was Robinson Crusoe!

    ReplyDelete
  74. Laundry is never ending at our house.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Yes, and mine is piling up around us as we speak.
    Thanks for the laugh.
    *hugs*

    ReplyDelete
  76. What a fantastic saying! I am never caught up with my laundry.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Laundry is the bane of my existence. Seriously. Thanks for the visit!

    ReplyDelete
  78. So very true! Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my blog. Nice to meet you!

    ReplyDelete
  79. Love this quote. All I have left at home now is husband and one daughter, but with grandkids over all the time, now I have extra clothes for them and when they change, they just leave the next set of clean clothes here. We just went to our last football game. We followed our 2 boys through jr hi, high school and college 13 years and before that was soccer....do you think it is time now to wash all the blankets in my van? Need to get them ready for Track Season....nope...never done. Carol

  80. I love your blog. Glorifying Jesus and fun to read. Good combo!

  81. what a funny quote! Soon, I'm going to post my friend's laundry room - it has verses all over it and I love it. Have a wonderful week. :)

    ReplyDelete
  82. Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. Abe needs all the prayers he can get right now. Thank you!

    When I was married with kids at home, I used to do 2 loads every day and iron whatever was in the wash. The only dirty clothes we ever had were what we had on our backs. Now that I am alone, I do admit, I do have dirty clothes since I only wash once a week. As I have grown older, I have become more lax with things. My hyper days are over. LOL

    Nice blog you have here!

    (((((( HUGS ))))))

  83. I've never had a tatoo. Nor do I plan on getting one. But if I did... it would be this quote. :)

    ReplyDelete
  84. I LOVE that! It is sooooooooooooo true!

    ReplyDelete
  85. That is so true. This might sound wired but I actually enjoy doing laundry. Now bathrooms thats another story!

    ReplyDelete
  86. I've got to give that quote to my dh. He has told me several times that he has done all the laundry. I've tried to tell him that's just impossible!
    Love your blog. Thanks for stopping by.

    ReplyDelete
  87. Is this the truth? It NEVER ends at my house!

    ReplyDelete

  91. LOL, I feel like I am drowning in laundry. Hate folding it, hate sorting it, hate putting it in the wash, hate switching it, hate pulling it out. Normally when I do The first steps... my work is ruined because I didn't fold and let them wrinkle!

    ReplyDelete
  92. Ha! That is really funny. I have piles to catch up on since I've been away. Thanks for stopping by my blog.

    ReplyDelete
  93. LOL! Oh my I love this. Laundry is literally taking over my home and my sanity!!!!
