I get to do Mom's laundry. Oh, and does she worry about it:
"Looks like you've got some laundry in the basket..."
"Oh that? Don't bother there isn't enough to do."
"Sure there is."
"I don't think so. And, besides, you don't have the time."
"It's OK."
"Say, bring me some of those blue pants?"
"I thought you didn't like those...they are too...drab."
"They are but they take so little work to keep clean."
"Mom, not to worry. It's not like I'm doing laundry on a washboard."
"Don't get smart with me Mister. Besides, I never did laundry on a washboard. A wringer washer yes. Now those where the days....."
And...so it goes.
