Jul. 24th, 2010 04:04 pmThings that make laundry problematic.
1. A trailing hem brushes against the climbing rose as you lower the line, so that as you unpeg your work trousers you find them plastered with greenfly.
2. The playful kitten Alfie decides that all trailing hems are fair game and jumps up to hang off them constantly, both as the line is loaded and unloaded.
3.
4. The washing line snaps, depositing your nice clean laundry all over the dusty, leaf-strewn ground.
Yep, that last one just happened this afternoon. I was not amused. Alfie was, though.

Conclusion: laundry is evil. Cristina on Grey's Anatomy had the right idea: "I don't do laundry. I buy new underwear." *G*

Bill is in no hurry to put anything into the gallery at the moment. Wishing my life away, as always. Why can't these people understand we (I) want to see!
