Laundry

Our washing machine broke.  A replacement has been arranged, but in the meantime, I wash things in the bathtub.  I do this as seldom as possible. Things come out of the tub pretty wet and heavy.  So that I don’t break the dryer, I hang them outside for several hours before drying.  The first time I did this, it was the load that the washing machine made wet but wouldn’t swirl around.  There wasn’t much choice about the timing.  It rained.  I wrung.

The next load I did got to bask in a bit of weekend sunshine.  Spring is truly edging its way in.  I took advantage of the light to play with my camera.

Little jammies drip.

Oh, is this what the lens hood is for?

On a work day, drying laundry like this is a bit of a gamble.  You just look on helplessly if it decides to rain.  Also there’s not much time before work to lean over the bathtub impersonating a washing machine.  Also, impersonating a washing machine gives you Popeye forearms.

That’s why the new washing machine is going to have its work cut out for it when it arrives.
