The Unparalleled Joy of Laundry

[devilgrrl]

There is nothing more awesome than being able to actually do laundry in my own damn house. Nothing.

We finally decided that, as our big Christmas present, to buy a portable washing machine. BJ's had one that we had been looking at since September, but it was kind of expensive, so we had been holding off. The other night, we went in to buy cards and they had the last model for a good discount. The washer came home with us for $120.

I finally decided that I would ruin some of my own clothes first as an experiment. First try, I got sprayed in the face because the hose wasn't tightened. It took me a minute to get used to the way it works, but I think I have the hang of it, now that I am on my second load.

Most of my stuff is hang dry anyway, so this completely eliminates having to go to the laundromat today. It is so worth every cent we paid.

And now I'm going back to cleaning.

It is damn expensive to go to the laundromat! We'd seriously go sometimes a month between going sometimes and just do emergency loads when we went to my grandparents. I mean, we're still going to have to do socks, undies, towels, and sheets at the laundromat, but I'll deal! It's going to cost so much less.

I am so enjoying laundry. I think I'll do a couple more loads tomorrow.
