For some months now, we’ve been hanging out our laundry.
Not our dirty laundry, (we still try to keep that to ourselves), but our wet, just washed, laundry. The sun has been out and hot since February, making it perfect weather for clothes drying.
And it’s been great. Not only does our dryer get a break, but our utility bill is actually pleasant to look at.
So, it being a bright sun shiny day today, and me, being a mom of outdoorsmen (meaning I always have laundry to do), I hung out a load of laundry before we headed out the door. I love when I remember to do that. Somehow I feel like I’m multi-tasking if I have laundry drying, while also running errands and eating lunch. You know what I mean? It’s like a double whammy, with twice as much happening in the same amount of time. SCORE!!
Or… UN-SCORE!!!
Because… if you’re me, you don’t watch television and you don’t check the weather, so OF COURSE, it starts to rain while you are out. And so, you come home to find that the clothes had had just enough time to dry in order to help sop up the torrential downpour that came their way.
Fail.
Oh well, at least the clothes were multi-tasking this morning. Wet. Dry. Wet. Dry. And the weather too for that matter. Nice job, guys.

I have done the exact same thing...and I also hang our laundry over the rails on our back deck:)
One of our many projects this summer is to hang a laundry line in the backyard. I know what you mean about feeling like you're multitasking while doing laundry - I feel like that too! :)
Sorry yours got all wet, but hey, it has to happen sometimes, right? ;)
