Laundromat Life

Sat, 18 Jul 2026 13:56:02 -0400

It’s been ages since I had to do laundry somewhere other than home. I live in a condo and we have shared facilities in the basement of our building. Unfortunately the company that leases and maintains our machines is virtually useless. With all machines in my our complex not working, I finally had to make the trek to the laundromat today.

To my surprise, and delight, the facility I’ve chosen is amazingly clean and efficient. This experience could possibly completely change my distain for laundry days. I can load multiple machines and complete my process much more efficiently. Additionally, being in a space with a diverse clientele dealing with the same function makes the task more pleasant.

Finding pleasure in the mundane.
