Ditto on the running into door frames and bed corners. I do it ALL the time.
And I bruise easily so it shows up.
I hope your head is a bit better.

Yea, I have teen-agers that do the “switcheroo”. (moving close from washer to dryer.) Then THEY fold and put away. Okay, there are a few baskets in their rooms with clean clothes in them, but once they are in their rooms it’s not my problem.

Now, how do you get them to put their dishes in the kitchen?

I routinely have bouts with the vacuum, wherein I wrap the cord around myself, and/or back into furniture I know is there.

(Am very glad you are OK.)

Oh, you poor thing! I’m signing you off from housework for the rest of the year!

Coulda happened to me just the same! I have a less than ideal laundry situation too. I have to go down the stairs, out the front door, into the side door, and across the cold garage. That, my friend, is where my laundry machines are. It’s a lot of ground to cover after I’ve brought the basket up and wonder where my missing sock got to.

That sounds exactly like something I would do. My husband says I’m a pinball, but I swear corners and door jambs jump out at me! And furniture corners? They’re drawn to my thighs!

Glad to hear you’ve recovered.

I am not laughing at you. No siree, I’m not. Poor thing… I’m sure you were a sight to behold! I’m glad you’re OK now… *stifled giggle*

Doing laundry isn’t a problem for me. It’s finding motivation to put everything away. I fold everything and put them in baskets to take upstairs so at least they are not all wrinkly after I take them out of the dryer. That’s good right? Right? So what if it takes a few days for me to actually put the stuff away. I’m not above rooting through the basket for clothes we need. :)

Now look at me… how many fingers am I holding up?

Doea that reason work on the others in the house? I’ll have to try it, if it does.

Oh my gosh, you are like me, maybe you are a little right brained….I blame it on that.
Glad you are alright now!
