Anyway, I digress, I'll write about that some other time. 

As it relates to tackling the laundry monster, I have learned some things. First, laundry is like the definition of a mandatory yet mundane task. It has to get done, but it can be absolutely soul sucking. If you want to learn how to do your laundry and protect your soul, click below!
