Never done

(1951 September 19)

I have been washing and ironing almost constantly for two days - have nearly all the clothes out of the basement now. Have been doing one load at night ready for hanging in morning. Saves 1/2 hour. Also did load of overalls after supper and hung in basement. But tomorrow is Wednesday, and Mrs. Weeden will come, and we will change beds, and your laundry will come [by mail] and the basement will be full again! Took me one hour to iron your gold bedspread alone. Washed the pad, etc. Will Fall houseclean the room tomorrow. Dust on the bedsprings is thick.
