WE DID, WE DID....Well HE DID!

This is crazy...lately too much going on to get the other things done that I want to do, like finish today's post.

Prayer group went into overtime and then I had to go shopping at three different places and by the time I got back, Michael was already home so it was time to fix dinner and home made apple pie, so I am rushing to finish up this post.

You will all be delighted to know that Michael went immediately to the laundromat to finish the laundry (that is the 'we did, we did...well he did' title)which left me with the also delightful task of cleaning up the laundry room disaster.  It took me as long to do that as it took Michael to pack up the clothes, drive to the laundromat (which amazingly he remembered where it was from 7+ years ago when he moved in here but he can't remember 90% of what I say), finish the wash (it took four loads that our washer could have made in three loads) and drive back home.  Of course you could have eaten off the floor when I finished (by the way, why DO they say THAT when you clean so much??  No matter HOW clean, I would not want to eat off of anyone's floor in ANY room!)

How's this for a cute little cleaner?  Looks like it may only be dry cleaning, but they were clever advertisers...

Interestingly Michael said there were SEVERAL men there and only ONE woman using the laundromat!!!  Think this could be a new guy hangout??  That guy looks like he is just fascinated with the spin cycle on that washer....

I have no idea what our local laundromat looks like so I will have to have Michael take me there one day (did I ever tell you that he took me to see the local dump after we got married???...his idea of a fun time can be scary!!)....

Hopefully 'his' laundromat looked alot better than this one and it should since they charged $2.50 per load and the washers were small and didn't even have a good spin cycle (for awhile I thought we might have to re-wring them out!)...

Did I ever tell all of you about the time when I was a young new bride (18 yrs old) and my late beloved hubby, Mario and I were stationed in Alaska at a little town named Delta Junction?  Our trailer court had a laundromat in the middle of it and I would trek through the snow to do the laundry, often by myself.  One time there was a huge sheet under the folding table and it was covering something, so I made the mistake of peeking and there was a dead wolf!!  Boy did our laundry get done in record time that night!....

When I looked for pictures of flooded laundry rooms, I found TONS of them...which makes me wonder about the who and how of those many, many photos.  Somehow, I don't think Michael would have been too appreciative if I had said "Honey, just hold that hose and the soaked floor while I go look for the camera and take several pictures while you flounder around in the mess."

How do you like this lovely laundromat, complete with misspelling, a phone, an ATM and a weird soda machine??....

The adventure continued once Michael got back with all four loads of wet clothes as we (meaning me trying to convince him that this was indeed a great idea) decided to put them outside.  We have a bench, a secluded area of fence and two drying racks for putting the wet clothes to dry on this sunny but cool day, all of which succumbed to the unbelieveably gusty winds...winds that could probably take you parasailing (without the ocean, although we did have several puddles) to Guatemala, China and maybe even Australia!  So, you can now picture us chasing clothes aound the yard and watching the racks fall down...

If we had clothespins and a drying line, they would have looked somewhat like these only I think the clothesline might have blown up and away as well!  Once again Michael failed to let on to all the fun he was having (he must just be shy that way)...

One of the adventures you didn't hear about was the unique way I had to do the dishes.  Since NO water could go down the drains, I had to get creative (don't worry, THIS time it is not so scary).  I had to have a bucket nearby as I plugged the sink and washed and rinsed in the plugged area, then I had to bail out the water into the bucket with a glass or bowl, fill it then go to the back yard and throw the water out onto the grass, unlike this lady who is throwing it on a truck and some children...

Let's end these pictures with a totally adorable photo I found of a baby koala bear investigating a bucket of water.  Michael and I didn't do this, but then we didn't have big enough buckets either (or I might have suggested it)...

Now for yet a few more chuckles that I got in an e-mail....
