Thanks to Lisa-Jo Baker at Five Minute Friday for the prompts.
I've always joking said that laundry was my favorite sport. It's not. I really don't understand how a person who lives alone can produce so many dirty clothes. Maybe that's a good thing. It proves that I don't hang around the house in my robe or "nekkid" all the time. Having laundry to do proves that I'm productive and that I do like to keep things clean.
When I get my own house, having a clothesline is on my "haves" list. The clothesline in the back yard is one of the things I like about my apartment. There's just something about hanging laundry. Yes, I know a dryer is faster and I use mine a lot. But pegging out laundry on the line gives me a sense of...a sense of...oh I don't know, I just feel like one of those hard working pioneer women I read about in Janette Oke and Lori Wick novels.Doing laundry also reminds me of how far I've come in my health journey. You knew I was getting to that, so don't act surprised. I was so happy when I got out of the 3 x's. Now, I'm trying to wrap my mind around being in an XL. Yes, I know that's still too big, but it's progress.
TIMES UP!
I love to hang my clothes on the line too! May you continue to be blessed on your journey.
