I didn’t start having time until I started making more money. Going to the laundromat takes half the day if you don’t want your shit stolen or your machine taken mid load and you find your dirty wet clothes dumped out on the floor. Having a washer and dryer in your home makes laundry a nearly passive chore. I have that as well as a dishwasher. When I finally got a job that pays well, I relocated for it and got an apartment that has those, plus a trash chute just a couple doors down. Once we were unpacked and settled in, I bought a roomba too.
I work 12 hour shifts, so it’s amazing to come home and not have all that bullshit to worry about. And the older I get, the more aware I am that I’m running out of time. Spending my finite time on shit I enjoy is the real secret to happiness.
