Laundry...again, and again, and AGAIN
Since the party and my sick days, our laundry has been piling up. So today, I decided that I would start tackling the large piles, so far I am only on the 3rd load and it's already 2pm.
Lint piles
Last time I did laundry I noticed that our clothes weren't drying as well as it used to. So I decided to clean out the lint inside the dryer. Not just on the screen but the little area that holds the screen. I was able to scrape up some pretty big wods of lint with a BBQ scewer stick, but right as I was getting into a groove... I dropped it!
So now I had think of another way to get the lint AND the stick!
"Duck" tape is the answer to every problem
After 10 minutes of trying to get the stick out with a drumstick... I finally thought of sticking some tape at the end and pick it up that way. It worked. It also helped in picking up the wods of lint high enough for me to suck it up with the vacuum!
My tricks seems to work for now... I guess we'll see how long it lasts...
Tonight is the fundraiser and tomorrow we'll be going to Disney on Ice, practice, AND take the kids to watch Chicken Little... a mother never rests, even when she can hardly breathe!
