Answer 1

I usually load and turn on the dishwasher, then load and turn on the washing machine and dryer.  While those two appliance are doing their thing, I make the beds.  When the dryer is done, and the dishwasher is still going, I empty and put the wet laundry in the dryer.  While that's drying and the dishwasher is finishing it's job, I fold clothes and put them up.
