Another pet peeve I have is when I have to sort socks!
How many ways can white socks be? We have the ones that have the grey strip at the toe, the red stripe at the toe, the grey area at the toe, or the grey area at the toe and heel. Then we have the all white ones, the thicker all white, the thinner all white, we have the one that has a band in the middle to give support, the tall socks, the short socks, the no show socks, then there's the Joe Boxer ones with their name on it, or Nike with the black emblem thingy, the ones with the red band, the blue band, and the black band on the no show ones on top,....whew..that's just my son's socks to sort.
Then we have all my daughter's socks. there is the no show white thin, the no show white thicker, worst...we have the ones with the little dogs, or cats, or purple flowers, or.....even worse I think is the ones she wants that have just a color band on the top. How many colors are there? Orange, red, green, dark blue, light blue, medium blue, royal blue, pink, fuchsia, purple...the list goes on. Of course you can't put an orange with a blue, or a light with a dark blue, or ....
NEED I GO ON?? I think you all get the point.
Oh wait... did I mention the TOE SOCKS??? Who ever thought of TOE SOCKS!
Then there's the fuzzy socks, the wool socks, the knee high socks, the nylon socks....
I want to throw them ALL away and buy each person one type to their liking and stick to it. Forget that you have a blue outfit on so you need the right color flower/blue socks to match, or if it's a plaid feeling day and you want plaid socks...
Oh, but then there is the time you want no show, or some top and in the winter you do want the thicker, and ahhhhhhh....I will forever be with baskets of socks that will never find it's mate.
