Things that make life easier

[McNuggetsAndMcFlurries]

It's been hard to keep on top of laundry since having a baby as we don't have a dryer and it takes about 2/3 days for it to all dry on the airer now that it's cold. So this morning I decided that it was all getting done today somehow (one load of laundry in the washing machine, a full basket of mine and my boyfriends clothes, towels and bedding and a full basket of babies stuff) so I did 3 washes and we took them to a laundrette and had it all dry in half an hour for only £2!!

I am thinking that I'll just do this every time the washing piles up in winter as with one load taking 2/3 days to dry on the airer the baskets end up being full again before I can actually get another wash done.

It would help if everything could be put in the dryer though as there's about half a load of laundry left that's waiting to go in as it says not to tumble dry 🤷‍♀️

What things do you do/have discovered that make your life easier?

I know it isn't feasible for most people but I have my washer and heat recycling tumble dryer in my bathroom, next to attached walk in wardrobe.

Game changer. 99% of what is washed is clothes (and bedding). Wash, dry and hang up. Only had it 2 years now and I love it

@Mrscutesmummy Google 'Eufy'. Then click 'buy'.

You'll thank me

Frozen chopped onions, supermarket deliveries, lowering standards.
A load of washing each day, over night to finish at 6am, then slinging it on the line before work from April to end of October.

I'd love a Eufy but I think we're too untidy for it!

Seriously just buy a plug in heated airer- bed sheet over all washing will dry over night

OP you need a Lakeland airer imo.

Online shopping.
Cook/Gousto.
Eating repetitively, and with the same simple breakfast (porridge) most days.
Bulk buying clothing basics - my 4yo must have a dozen or more navy and black leggings from George, for example. There’s never a scramble for them.

My sister at the weekend; there's stuff everywhere on radiators because it says don't tumble dry

Me: ignore that shit

Also, clean the shower while you're in it and swoosh the sink and loo while you're drying off

I want 2 dishwashers when we refurb our kitchen 🤩

Ocado every week
sending sheets to the laundrette
dog walker
Wattbike
charger cables all over the place
cycling everywhere

Dyson hair dryer, it’s halved the time to dry my long hair.
