Back to life......

back to reality....I guess I've been listening to 80's on XM too long! That's all I know of that song & it's stuck in my head - it's so annoying!! (Soul II Soul) But true-we're back to life here at home & reality is: piles of laundry. It's not too bad really, I have it all washed and the rest will be dry soon. I really need a clothesline. This works ok but if it's windy they fall down. I've been hanging up most of our laundry to air dry for a while now. I don't know, it just feels good. I don't have to run the dryer non-stop & I seem to get it done faster since I'm not waiting for the dryer to finish with the last load. I still use the dryer for socks/underwear/towels most of the time or will finish them up in the dryer. It's so nice outside that it's much more enjoyable to do laundry outside so why not? This winter I hung everything in the basement & most things dry fairly quickly, by overnight at least. We hang a lot of our clothes anyway so it's not much more work. I'm going to get a retractable clothesline to put somewhere. Today started off slow & I should have a quieter week than normal with a couple kids going to be off so I can't complain. Damon helped clean up Saturday afternoon & again last night so it's not so overwhelming to me today. I'm still tired to early to bed tonight. After I get some class work done...last face to face class is on Saturday in Green Bay and it's our big event day so plenty to do. I'm not stressing yet, nothing like the last minute! Damon got a job lead while we were on vacation. He's not looking for a new job but got a call from an associate who referred him to this company that's looking for someone in transportation. It would be related to farm machinery so kinda different than mattresses or car parts but all along the same line. He's going to check it out cause why not? Never know what it might be. I can't imagine he'd leave his current job but he knows he doesn't want the next job up from where he's at now-too much garbage to deal with & he has no desire. Regardless, it's nice to get a good referral from someone!

  1. Well that laundry drying system looks rather familiar! ;) There's a couple moving here soon from Ireland- they're looking for a dryer. If they get one, it will be the 2nd one I've seen since coming to Europe (and the 1st here in Ukr). Glad you had a nice vacation!
