I usually wind up with 4 to 5 loads at the laundromat. Dark on cold Lights on warm/cold undies on hot towels on hot bedding on warm sometimes I combine the towels and bedding in one of the large machines, especially if I have my Dad's laundry too.
I don't mind doing the laundry, I kind of zone out during the folding. I just don't like it when it rains and I have to carry it. I put DH's uniforms on hangers.

Me too. I can't wait for that day. I will be dancing in the streets.

I don't seperate a thing
I wash everything together (darks, whites, towels) on warm. If it has bever been washed before and its a dark color then I will wash it separate- but I live in an apt and it's $2 to wash and $2 to dry- so I try and shove as much crap into each load as I can!!
Same here- Only I have to go to the laundromat, so its more like $4 for a large load.

Re: Laundry?????
I separate them-whites, light colors, dark colors, and if necessary, things that bleed. Towels are always separate as well as anything covered in cat hair! I wash everything with cold water except bed sheets. There-my part in helping the environment!

Re: Laundry?????
We separate lights and darks and DH is a stickler for using cold water for everything. The only exception is when we do the occasional load of bleach.

Re: Laundry?????
We use the building's coin operated laundromat and do:
Darks (on cold) Colors (on cold) Reds (on cold) Whites (on hot) Towels and bedding (on warm/cold)
Washing with cold water helps prevent colors from fading, so we go for cold for most of our clothes.
Then we dry everything in the dryers except my bras, work pants, work shirts, or DH's uniforms, which we take upstairs and hang dry.
I hate laundry day. Thankfully DH does most of it now!!!
