Fortunately, with today's modern equipment, Blue Mondays are gone forever and any day is a good day. to easily handle the laundry. According to home economists there are ways to make the laundry process even faster and more con venient. They suggest: Mend tears before doing the wash. Tears can become larger in the washing process, making repairs more difficult and time consuming. Pretreat stains and spots before laundering. Stains allowed to set become more difficult to remove. Or, batch-treat a full load by using the Soak-Pre-soak cycle on the washer. This method eliminates pre-treating each item individually. Store laundry products overhead to eliminate stooping and to keep them safely out of children's reach. Include a counter or table nearby the washing area for sorting, pretreating, folding, etc. Put socks and small items in mesh bag for easier and quicker removal from washer.
