I don't know about you, but in my home the laundry room is considered one of the most important rooms. It's command central. When my kids were still at home it was also a disaster on most days. Oh, it might be clean for a few brief hours, but then when everyone started slinging off boots and muddy clothes, you'd never know I'd darkened the door that day.
Many days the frustration of laundry, picking up clothes, blankets, cups and shoes (the list could go on infinitely) is overwhelming, especially with kids in the home. Before my children flew the nest, I'd get mad and start to spew at them, wanting to ask the question my mom used to ask us in jest (mostly), "What'd your last maid die of—overwork and underpay?" I always laughed at that question, but now I can appreciate the significance of it. That's sure what it feels like sometimes.
Listen as I share a perspective I learned years ago that helped me no blow a fuse every time I walked in the door to a messy house and laundry room.
