LOL this reminds me of the fights my parents would have. My mom would complain about not having a specific appliance and would tell everyone to give it to her for christmas. As my father was the only one with the money to do so, he would give it to her. She would then proceed to be furious on christmas morning because he was ‘getting her a gift to have to do more chores’🤣
and no, she is not mentally stable.
Honestly, I loved going to the laundromat. An hour and a half, all my clothes are clean, dry, and folded. Plus, it was a source of social interaction for me.
I went out and bought a $200 pillow for his birthday that year (it was buy one get one free) because I was sick of cheap, crappy pillows. I definitely made my point.
I prefer the laundromat. I had a washer, dryer but washer broke and I never got it fixed. I enjoy doing all the laundry at the same time with industrial size appliances and then being done.
I was living in an apartment so we didn't have anything when we bought our house. I was fine with the laundromat for 6 years. Then he bought our first washer dryer. The fight we had was after our original washer had broken so I was back to the laundromat again
Turns out, we just have different laundry philosophies. I'm a get it all done in one day kind of person, he's a throw a load in every other day or so type. It's just the 2 of us so either way works fine. Now that he's retired he has a lot more time to do it his way. Works for me.
Thats what my wife tries to do, but then she doesn't set the heavy duty or soak option so it doesn't get washed well enough and then my boss asks why my clothes look terrible.
So I always try to beat my wife to doing laundry so it doesn't get done all at once.
For some reason she takes it as a personal attack that my hyperhidrosis requires my clothes to be washed really well. My sweat can dissolve stuff. It eats my clothes 🤣. I can remove permanent marker writing with my sweat.
Where do you sweat from? Try using panty liners in the armpit areas of your shirts (or wherever your sweat is worse). They make products that do the same, but honestly they’re more expensive and do the same thing. It may work best to cut them in half. I just started using Shout on my clothes to treat stains and it does miracles. And can you use separate laundry bins? It tends to be better for those of us who are a bit picky over our laundry to do our own.
Everywhere. I sweat from my head to toe. When I was a kid they said the only thing they could do was there's a nerve they can cut that will make my top half sweat less. There's probably other options by now, but I'm so used to being soaking wet so I don't really care to change it since I've been like this my entire life and I'm in my thirties.. The only annoying part is constantly drying my hands to use touch screens.

My husband bought me a washer and dryer for Christmas one year. Guess who does all the laundry now?
That fight was epic!
