Sorting, taking down, putting away laundry doesn’t need to happen in one session, but can be broken down further. For example I can only put underwear into the drawer and nothing else else.
Much more manageable.
Laundry is one of the things I’m actually doing quite well with.
I buy new detergent before the old one runs out. Also I buy big packs, so I buy detergent once a year or so. I have four different types of detergent: white, color, black, wool/silk. So even if I run out of one, I can still use one of of the others. Washing whites with color detergent is fine for example.
Sometimes I break down the tasks into smaller pieces and it works but sometimes I get even more overwhelmed by the multiple new tasks so I end up doing nothing
Gotta write DO THE LAUNDRY in sharpie on my forearm so I remember.
This made me think of episodes with the Silence in Doctor Who. Another chore, another mark on your arm…

I understand completely. That’s why I only break down the next tiny step at a time, not a full long list.
