What's your laziest habit/shortcut?

[motheroftinydragons]

I've just tumble dried my bed sheets in this weather because I just can't be arsed to stand outside in 30 degree heat and wrestle with my super king bedding only for it all to drag in the dirt and get in a tangled mess AND then need ironing because it never dries crease free like it does in the dryer.

Am I the laziest?

AND then need ironing
😂😂😂 you iron sheets?!? What a waste of time and energy.

Not ironing. At all.

Re-using my breakfast toast plate if I have toast for lunch, and only getting a fresh mug for my tea occasionally.

Lots of others I'm not admitting to

Letting next door's dog in to lick up the bits of dinner that my DC drop on the floor so I don't have to sweep it up .

Rarely iron.
Use the same mug for tea all day.

Never iron. Reuse tea mug. And spoon. If I have a shower late in the day might skip one the next day (but only if I’m not doing anything, would struggle if I was meeting friends). Always use dryer.

Non ironer here too

No dishwasher so I reuse my cup a lot. Quick rinse and left beside the kettle when finished.

Dog cleans crumbs off the floor

I make a lot of rice dishes so I don't have to peel and cut potatoes

Leave all hand washed dishes to drip dry and then put away

Oh... I also have a "junk drawer" in the sitting room for a quick tidy when I'm too lazy. Everything gets dumped in there then sorted when I'm feeling a bit more productive

Falling asleep on the sofa if I'm really tired and then just staying there for the night.

Oh, I only iron them when they come off the line creased to hell. Out of the dryer = crease free and no need.

I rarely iron anything else either except for DHs work shirts and then only because he asks me really nicely!

Also use the same mug all day, but with a baby and 3 year old I rarely get to drink a whole hot drink anyway!

I second the junk drawer! I have a crap cupboard

I have a junk cupboard! DH hates it and will routinely get crap out of it and leave it on the side to be put away. I then put it back in the cupboard because I don't have time (and can't be bothered) to find homes for it all. He gets it out again. And on the cycle goes....

This is why I bought a 5 bedroom house - we both have rooms like this.

Frozen chopped onions

@Lemontree118 I have to disagree. Frozen cooled onions aren't lazy, they're a necessary time saver AND save waste in this house. I never tend to use a whole onion so end up chucking half away.

Cooled? Chopped!

Can't remember the last time I dried anything (besides the odd delicate) anywhere other than the tumble dryer. Also, frozen toddler meals. The posh organic ones, but still.

Use kitchen roll instead of plates as far as possible.

I'm another one who gets next door's dog round at toddler mealtimes.

I didn't realise that using the same mug for each drink is lazy. Its all my family have ever done 😂

Frozen chopped chilli/mushroom/ginger/onion
My fella thinks it’s the height of laziness
I say it’s to save waste

Very rarely iron anything. Use stuff out of dirty washing basket to dust upstairs with sometimes (saves going downstairs to get the dusting cloth).

I pretty much never iron. About once or twice a year.
I regularly buy grated cheese.
I never clean our barbeque all summer we just rely on the heat to clean it (ish)
I often sleep in my clothes if tired.
Unless I'm wearing foundation or false eyelashes I rarely take my makeup off before bed.

Frozen chopped garlic. I decided one day that I no longer needed to prep my own just to prove I'm a decent cook. I am a decent cook - just one that really, really hates prepping garlic! And then I discovered frozen chopped chilli, ginger and basil too

Ooh yes, grated cheese!!!! I cringe at the price every time but it’s just so easy and useful!! (and we never waste any😀)

I have many junk drawers

I don't understand how your sheets get so creased when hung on the line though, but not in the drier. With mine its the other way round
