When doing laundry...

...if using 1/2 as much laundry detergent as recommended (which I must say I do not do) and as little warm/hot water as needed (which I do) is frugal

...then what is doing 3 loads of laundry (including drying) only to realize you never added any detergent at all???

Ugh.

  1. I'm having a flashback to the day I mowed the entire lawn without the blades turned on. I don't mean that the deck was up, I mean I never even turned the blades on. Yikes.
    P.S. LOVE the hair!

  3. Hehe... I believe that would be "cheap" -unless of course you are a mom of 3 young children all at home -then it's just "a-day-in-the-life-of" ...

  4. Oh boy... that kind of absent-mindedness almost sounds pregnant!  I once washed an entire load of dishes, by hand, and on the last two cups realized I didn't use dish soap.  I stomped a fit and cried for 20 minutes.  I was also 10yrs old.  Almost sounds like something I would do as an adult! 8-(
    Sounds like today was a rough one for you.  Maybe it's time to call up those little sisters of your's for emergency respit care!
