Today’s Thursday Cleaning Challenge is a painful one. I am totally willing to admit it. Get out all those mismatched socks and match them up. Do this while watching your fave show or listening to a great CD. This shouldn’t take 10 minutes but we all know we put this off way too much. You will feel better for it.

I try to keep my kids socks organized by using shoeboxes that fit in the drawer. One for whites and one for colors!
Mine are always perfectly organized by color, occasion, and length on my handy sock hangers!–Just Kidding.
My trick is to buy lingerie washing bags from the dollar store one for each member . They put there socks into the bag throw them into the washing machine then dry of course and hand them back the bag with their socks.
