Absolutely. I have too much production in the pipeline. But the kids had no clean pants (Minifob typically goes through 3 pairs a day,) and I can pull clean pants out of a basket of unfolded laundry if I need to. Buying them more pants doesn't solve the inherent problem. Now that loads number 3 and 4 from yesterday have been folded and put away, I already have load number 1 for the day--the night's pee-soaked sheets--moving to the dryer. There are just not enough hours in the day for a workable Gantt chart.
