Family plans to build laundry shoot

(click on title to read entire post and comments)
With two parents working full-time and taking care of a toddler, the ecosystem of our household is changing. The latest effect was observed around our pile of clothes waiting for the Laundry Day. The pile has long ago outgrown the basket, and then the second basket, then the closet where the baskets were kept. But couple days ago Julia noticed that now when you want to throw a garment into the pile, you have to toss it up. This is new experience. I am thinking about finally building a laundry shoot. No, not the traditional kind that lets you drop your clothes into a laundry room. More like snow-blower, one that would pick them from the floor and shoot them up the top of the pile.

Ilya, that is too funny!!! We have a real laundry shoot and I love it, but even then, we get quite the pile in the basement!!! I feel for you. Laundry is my least favorite chore. How are you all doing??? I bet Masha is growing super fast! Tell Julia I say HI!
