Fishing in the laundry room

Yesterday, we got home from church and of course I was hungry. Jason started the grill and then decided he was going to do a load of laundry. He gathered all the whites and threw them in hot water and started the load. I went upstairs to change into my Bears jersey for the game and realized that he had my new white shirt that fits perfectly in a pool of hot water. Which you all know equals shrinking of my new shirt. So he and I went into the laundry room and were sifting through the very hot water to find that white shirt of mine. Our little fingers got so hot, we had to make a fishing pole out of a hanger and fish out my white shirt. We pulled up boxers, socks, t-shirts, tank tops, and then........finally, after about three minutes we found my white shirt, hung it up to be washed again later. We laughed...who would have thunk we would be fishing in our own laundry machine.

it's even harder to worry about when you are having to do laundry where 300 other people do! I can't wait to have my own...and to not have to put quarters into it

jason does laundry? can i borrow him? The second week we were married erik did laundry and shrunk a $75 pair of jeans. I never let him do it since. Now that I think about it, he probably did that on purpose.

How Funny! I remember when Rick and I first got married and he threw some of my "unmentionables" in the washing machine with a heavy load and I had to dig through and pick all of them out!! MEN!! There should be a sticker with instructions for men to do the laundry!! :)

Lance has never done the laundry and I like to keep it that way! :)

KUDOS to Jason for doing it and doing a good job! (well, most of the time!)
