the dishwasher? no.

the laundry i try to get to because i do NOT iron if i can help it and i don't want the clothes to be wrinkly. it doesn't happen every time though.

nope and nope.

unloading my dishwasher is my LEAST favorite chore in my entire house.  so i usually let it sit to see if matt gets to it first.  biggrin

dryer, i get to when i get to b/c my dryer has a dewrinkle cycle.  i'll just run that if it's been sitting.

nope and nope

most of the time I run it at night and then do not unload it till dinner the next day.

dryer is hit or miss. if I am doing hard core laundry then I will dry and fold. if i am just tossing in a load then it can sit and I just let it run a few again before taking out. I hate folding laundry.

no and no. I don't like unloading the dishwasher and usually wait until the last minute and I need to fill it up again. For some reason I do not mind filling the diswasher, but hate to unload.

The clothes sit in baskets until I have a chance to fold and put away. I love washing clothes, just get lazy by the time they need put away. I hang dry everything that I can though, it's much easier to grab the clothes on hangers after they are dry and throw in the closets versus folding/putting away.

No and no.  The dishes are too hot when it's first done so I wait.  The laundry sometimes gets folded right out of the dryer, but not often these days.  I usually wait until the kids are in bed to fold everything.

i usually do my laundry at night and then fold it first thing in the morning. i never iron, ever.
if it needs it, i'll run it for 5-10 min before folding it. if not, then we just have a round of wrinkled clothes. i'm not fussy about it and DH gets his work clothes drycleaned.

dishwasher, i run at night and empty in the morning also.

Rarely.  I'm more likely to fold the laundry as soon as it's done than empty the dishwasher.

dishwasher - no

dishwasher - no, unless the dishes are out of control and I need to immediately reload

laundry - usually yes because I am doing one load after another

Rarely do I unload the dishwasher right away.

Laundry depends.  If I happen to hear the buzzer and am not in the middle of something I fold.  If not, I either fold wrinkled clothes or turn it back on for a minute then fold.

No and No.

The dishes I run at night before bed, so my excuse is that I'm either already asleep, or on my way up to bed.

The laundry... well, I just hate it. I need to take care of both immediately, though. My life would be SO much easier.

Ditto! I hate unloading the dishwasher!!!!

I am never that on top of the laundry either, unless its sheets or something I am just throwing back on the bed instead of folding right away. Gotta love the fluff cycle!

Nope and nope, here too, lmao!

Dishwasher gets emptied whenever.  Sometimes it is right away, but usually I set it to run overnight and we will empty it at some point the next morning.

Clothes?  They might get folded right away, or it might take a week-it all depends on what is going on that week.

I don't mind the dishwasher as much as the folding.  I DESPISE folding.  The only thing I hate more is ironing.  OMG-if I never had to do it again, I would dance naked in celebration.  Horrible, horrible job.

DW...no, it's usually run at night.

Laundry...depends, sometimes I do. sometimes, like right now, i have a basket of clothes sitting to be folded but the dryer is still running, so i do make sure to fold one basket of clothes before bringing out the next load. dependning whose clothes are in the dryer and how much i have to do, sometimes things will sit, its usually denim and towels though. I don't mind ironing, though, I like a freshly ironed and lightly starched blouse....well, that is, whenever i manage to get out of my capri's and tank tops LOL
