I was reading the blog of a friend the other day. She is single, no kids and she travels. She goes to fun and exciting places like Bali and other warm places. I started to envy her life - it appears so carefree! How wonderful to be able to plan a trip with some friends and take off for a few weeks - go snorkling, scuba diving, moped riding...OK I don't know how to scuba dive, but I would take a class and learn real quick if I was going to Bali!

So there I was in my pit of envy and I realized something - no not the old cliche thinking that I chose my life, I have three GREAT kids and a wonderful husband and I should be happy, blah, blah, blah...I do love my life, I would not trade it for the word. However, the LAUNDRY got to go! I am forever doing laundry and dishes. So Bill discovered a way to streamline the laundry process. I wonder what he'll think of for the dishes.
