Laundry, Laundry, Laundry

For those of you who know me, you know I am no housekeeper--and have never claimed to be. For those of you who know me REALLY well, you know I am terrible at keeping up with laundry. My whole house usually looks like an explosion of clothes. My laundry room is even worse. I thought that when we built our laundry room I would be so organized and keep up with the laundry better. Well, the only time I have had a clean laundry room is when Michele and Katie cleaned it when I had my hysterectomy.

I have decided that I am going to try damn hard to keep up with the laundry. I thought a nice kickoff to that would be to clean the laundry room and get organized. I sent the kids to school today and worked on it ALL day. I took before and after pictures. I debated to even post the before pic. because it is so embarrassing. But I then decided that you could not get the full sense of how much work went into cleaning it. I know Michele and Katie know first hand. Anyway, I'm hoping if I post these pictures, I will maybe be embarrassed enough to keep it clean!
