Thanks for the Time Saver!

In an effort to save me time having to look for things, he took some gift card holders out of a bag and placed them up on a shelf hidden away. I spent half an hour this morning looking for the bag that I had just placed on the desk 2 days ago. I was just about to go buy more of the gift card holders since I need them the day after tomorrow.

Is Nothing Sacred?

I came home from a long day at work the other day to find that he'd not only re-organized all my stuff that I use for story time, but he managed to find enough time in his day to re-organize my desk. Went through all my private papers and stacked them up in a way that seemed better organized to him. I'll never find anything.

So You Want to Do Laundry?

How to do the laundry, Y-style:
Throw a mixture of clothes into the washer and don't worry about the colors because that's just an old wives' tale about colors bleeding. Don't check the pockets just because you might find a pen, some candy, a wallet, some money or even a cell phone in there. Use a lot of detergent to get those not very dirty clothes clean. Set it on the longest cycle - once again to get those not very dirty clothes clean. Then throw them in the dryer and use high heat because they dry faster. At that point either leave them in the dryer or throw them into a basket all jumbled up, because, what the heck, you IRON your clothes. Keep piling them into the basket. Pile as high as you can until they start falling over. Don't bring them upstairs because then you might remember that they have to be put away. Ah, complete. A job well done. Tell your friends and coworkers how hard you work at home, even doing the laundry. Wait for compliments.
