I have two old sewing machines with the tables that fold over. I have them both lined up together when they're put away. I keep the tops clear and their put away place within view of the tv so I can fold laundry on top of them while keeping an eye on the kids and watching a show or kids movie.

My washer and dryer are in the upstairs bathroom so I fold the towels and put them away as I fold.
There is only laundry for dh and I now, son does his own, so I take ours to the bedroom and hang what needs to be hung and the rest get put into pile and put in their respective drawers. Much easier to get it done right away than to let it sit and pile up on me.

O, a trouble's a ton or a trouble's an ounce,
Or a trouble is what you make it!
And it isn't the fact that you're hurt that counts,
But only--how did you take it?

I hang all my laundry on an outside line in good weather and fold it as I take it off the line and right into basket.

I usually wash clothes when I know I have time to hang and fold them. If not, I don't. Or they would sit in the dryer.. or worse the washer (and have to be rewashed).

I bring in hangers before the clothes are done, and drape the t-shirts and western shirts over the kitchen chairs. Then the towels get dumped in the middle of the table. The underwear is thrown into a laundry basket.

Clothes are hung and brought to closets. Towels are folded and usually make it to the linen closet that day. Underwear sits next to my chair to fold/match while watching tv in the evening.

Now when the kids were little. I would wash the clothes. Walk into the living room and dump everything with a "Laundrys done.. come and get it.. take it to your room and put it away, or you will be wearing wrinkled rags to school next week." ... Clothes disappeared quickly -- I never checked the drawers, some things are best left alone.

"There is no unbelief: Whoever plants a seed beneath the sod and waits to see it push away the clod, he trusts in God." (Kate Douglas Wiggin)
