  • @gingerbunny23 you are definitely not a whale at all! But i understand the feeling because I feel it (and look it) too.
  • Better late than never! FTM, 22w3d

  • @scaredunprepared honestly same, there's a permanent pile of clothes on the floor I have left for myself to determine if they're clean or dirty on the weekends 🙃
  • @mcmanda4321 lol, the pile of clothes system is strong over here too. Maybe I should try something tidier someday.

  • @mcmanda4321 and @etnyah I USED to be so organized and tidy.  I love organizing.  But now I just gave up.  Hubby uses the pile system, and with 2, soon to be 3 kids, it's just a losing battle!
  • @scaredunprepared I’m actually better than I used to be, the pile used to be a lot bigger! My husband is the tidy and organized one in this household. He’s the kind of insane person who unpacks after a trip right after getting home and never loses or forgets anything. I grew up in chaos so I don’t understand his neat freak ways. Thankfully he’s very tolerant of my habits  :D

  • @etnyah @scaredunprepared @mcmanda4321 H is very much into the "pile system" and has been ever since I've known him. And it's VERY hard to know which pile is which. And then also, he sometimes uses hampers properly (for dirty laundry; but then clean laundry is on the floor) and then other times, it's got clean laundry, while dirty laundry is on the floor. Lol. It's impossible to keep it straight so I just ask.
