Laundry ?

Stacyc625 · July 2009

I was talking to another SAHM yesterday and the topic of laundry came up.

She said she did her linens/sheets/towels like once every three weeks and she asked me how often i wash sheet and i told her every week. She looked at me like i was nuts. It is just my routine- every friday i do all the sheets and towels- and put them back on the bed all nice and clean and fresh for the weekend- so its out of the way.

How often do you wash your sheets?

I'm not a SAHM (yet, will be soon though!)

Anyway, just wanted to say you're not nuts. I wash ours every week too! It just smells so nice and fresh and I feel so good sleeping on clean sheets, so I'm right there with ya!!

I don't wash our sheets every week, but I do have enough "stock" to change the sheets every week.. I just don't want to wash them every week because that would get old real fast. And with our towels, we just have a lot of towels so we can change them out every few days, but I do wash those every week.

I throw our sheets and DD's crib sheet in the washer when we get up for church on Sunday, I switch them to the dryer before we leave and then I make the bed up after lunch- when we all take a nap. LOL.

I have always done this on Sunday's. You are not crazy. Unless your friend showers before she goes to bed everynight-she is the cookoo here!! Stick out tongue

i change sheets once every 1-2 wks.

Mc_Newlywed · July 2009

Every week. Even when I worked.

I hope she was maybe changing the sheets but leaving them in the laundry room and only washing them every 3 weeks. I can't imagine sleeping on 3 week old sheets! Gah!

You are not nuts. 3 weeks is a little too long, unless she has couple sets.

I do towels and linens every 3 days (minus sheets). Sheets every week, two at the max.

HarrietNJMommy · July 2009

Every week, just like you. I stopped ironing my sheets about 6-7 months ago. YES, I AM that crazy that I even ironed my sheets...........I know - I need help.

I do a load of laundry every day - Sheets get done on Sunday, towels on Monday, Kids' stuff on tuesday, our stuff on Wednesday, and miscellaneous load on Thursday - no laundry on Friday or Saturday, unless it's DS's cloth diapers.........they get done every other day.

It's usually every week or every other week in winter. My DH stinks. :0

Emily_Ann · July 2009

At least every two weeks. It just depends on how fast they get dirty. If it rains a lot, they get changed at least once a week because I often forget to shut the bedroom door before I let the dogs back in the house.

drunkenwife · July 2009

I wash sheets and towels about once a month.

I *change* the sheets every week though, and I use a fresh towel every couple of days or so. I just happen to have a LOT of sheets and towels on hand because I hate doing frigging laundry.

MommyMimi27 · July 2009

Yikes! I do mine every week also. I need to find some good sales on sheets so I can stock up and not have to literally wash them weekly but rather just change them out.?

Who doesn't LOVE Clean Sheet Day?!?!?

We have several sets so, while DH washes the sheets once a week, on Sundays, I change the sheets every Tuesday and every Friday. I must be nuts but I don't care, I just love Clean Sheet Day!!!

Stacyc625 · July 2009

I have several sets too- i just can't stand to have laundry sitting.

gatogrrl · July 2009

Every 2-3 weeks. I change DD's every week, at least, but I don't launder them until I'm ready to wash ours.

JCM · July 2009

I change the sheets every week. I have two pair (that I'm using now) so I alternate them. I love clean sheets too! The day I put on my clean sheets I take a shower at night instead of the morning so I have clean sheets and a nice clean body, heaven!

LoveInCowboyBoots · July 2009

Once a week, if not more. We have a dog that sheds and sleeps with us, so they get yucky fast. And I have such sensitive skin that my face will actually break out of I let the pillowcases go too long.

lilone_06 · July 2009

I guess I'm slovenly - I sometimes go between 1 and 2 weeks (especially now that I'm pregnant again my standards have gone completely downhill). And I have extra sets so I wash, dry, fold and put away at my leisure.

mrs.baum · July 2009

Once a week.

funchicken · July 2009

I love clean sheets, so I try to change them every week, and I change the towels constantly. We do a couple of loads of towels every week.

iteachk · July 2009

Every week.

Future Mrs. Shaw! · July 2009

You are not nuts! I am a stay at home mom and every monday I deep clean the house. I clean all of the sheets, towels, and blankets on the couch... etc.

I couldn't wait to do the sheets every three weeks.. that's just gross.
