One of the few advantages to waking at 5:30 AM is that when the basement opens at 6:00, you can be reasonably assured of getting your pick of washing machines. So it was this morning. Total loads completed: 10 (4 whites/lights, 6 colored/darks). Folded but not sorted; the family will put theirs away when they wake up (it's almost all theirs, except some socks and a shirt of mine).

Also, two loads of recyclables taken out, and some minor rearrangement and sweeping accomplished.

That's a good start to a very long day of cleaning.
