Slice of Life Day 9: Meetings Week

Slice of Life Day 8: Laundry
Laundry is the bain of my existence. I don’t mind the actual act of doing laundry, but folding clean laundry is definitely not my favorite household chore. And I’m not sure why. But, I never fold laundry straight out of the dryer. Folding laundry never takes as long as I…
