I had to laugh when I received this herstory. I was actually doing the laundry, and as part of my ongoing gratitude practice, feeling grateful at how easy it is to do laundry and "sixteen other things" at the same time. Perfect. And, of course, Maya, I'd send it out in a heartbeat!
I used to have a washing machine in my apartment. When it finally gave up the ghost after more than thirty years, I started taking my laundry to the dry cleaners across the street, instead of either buying a new washing machine, or sitting in a laundromat for hours washing and drying my clothes.
I wouldn't outsource my laundry because it's one of the very few household chores I don't really mind. (I also have low standards. which helps. I.e. I haven't touched an iron in years.) It also seems too intimate to share my family's dirty undies and stinky sports clothes with a stranger 😂
Cooking? Cleaning the bathroom? Vacuuming? Washing windows? I'd outsource those in a heartbeat.

Ha! It's always 17 things at once, isn't it? :-)
And I am still incredibly grateful for an in home washer/dryer! We are living our ancestor's dreams.

I love that. I hope it gets delivered back to you too :-)

Definitely no ironing! :-)
