With the permission of a friend and reader/listener, I am posting her email to me. I’m inspired to tackle my sock basket. How ’bout you? Maybe we’re moving closer to that olympic team after-all!

READY!
SET!
FOLD!

I’ve decided that this is one of my elephants…and I must admit if I am to move forward.. I mean if you notice.. I believe that my basket is bigger than yours (which I’d like to stress that I am NOT bragging about) and there are only 4 people in this house!
I pledge to: sign off, to fold and to toss the loners WITHOUT GUILT OR SELFDOUBT.pilars-socks.jpg 

A couple of hours after that email arrived, I received this one:

UPDATE: I did it! Its all done. And I feel GREAT!:)

I wish you each a completely folded sock basket!
Good night~

This morning as I was racing around to see if I could get, just one more load of laundry in before getting the kids off to school, I had a great idea! There should be Mommy Olympics. I mean, come on………who else can fold a load of laundry in 1 minute and 10 seconds or race from a sitting position to a screaming toddler in 8 seconds or jump over, around and through the gauntlet of toys, that are on the floor, in the dark? Oooo, oooo……..there could also be memory tests like; name that favorite Raffi, Wiggles or Laurie Berkner song. If they ever do put together an event like this do any of you want to be on my So. Cal. team?
Good night~
