Should I do the laundry?

Question

My wife and I have an arrangement.  I do laundry one weekend and she does it the next.  Well her weekend was last weekend and she did not do laundry.  So now it is Tuesday and I just put on the last pair of underwear that I have clean.  She still has like a dozen pair so it doesn't bother her none.  I have like a dozen pair total so with clean pair a day and sometime two when I go to the gym it will only last me a little over a week.  So should I do the laundry or go buy more underwear?  Of course there is the problem of once the weekend is here it is my turn - then what do I do?

How about you just do your laundry, and she does hers, then you are only to blame if you get in a wreck and you have on dirty undies.

Hmmmmm....tough.  I think your best bet right now is to mention to your wife that she missed her turn.  If that doesn't do the trick, then do your own laundry and leave hers.  Unless you want to buy more underwear.  Never hurts.  But, I think it needs to be nipped in the bud right now and tell her she missed her turn.  Before the weekend gets here again.

I do my entire family's laundry every Sunday evening (Monday if that's a holiday).  Of course, there's only the three of us, so it isn't that big a deal.  For me, it's somewhat therapeutic.

And I like the smell of fresh laundry!

Just do your laundry that a way you have your clothes and eventualy she will run out and have a lot of her own to do
