Yes, I do, actually. For two reasons. We get a laundry bucket so that fits right into my ancestral game save, since that is set in the 18th century. Also, I was a Homemaker in my day and I have my Sim Moms mostly being homemaker's, too. (The term Stay-at-Home-Mom irks the life out of me. Just because I didn't work outside of the home, doesn't mean I stayed constantly at home!) The beauty in having laundry is that I can have her go around and tend to that while the family is off and about. School, work, what have you. It's not like the beds go unmade anymore. Gee, wish I could just grab the bed covers and toss them toward the head of the bed and voila, it's made! LOL So much for realism. That's okay, I've never minded the quirky, fantastical aspects of this game. Gives me a good giggle, now and again.
