Sounds like you have some really good points.

You are right in that we are mostly a single load each day. Maybe exception day when she washes bed stuff or other specialty.

You are right about to not wanting to dry everything.  I think she is still working on that schedule. I was told to not put some stuff in the wash because she didn't want it through the dry cycle.

A work in progress. At least I hope it is progress. :-)
