Hiya BetterMost friends!





Yeah, I wish that's what I planned for Saturday.  Currently at mom and dad's place.  They're away for the weekend, so I'm doing laundry today.  Possible rain tomorrow, so this way I can use the laundry line outside in the sun to dry some of my clothes.

Once I'm done here, I need to get some cleaning done around the apartment, and then I can relax on Sunday.

That is the first time I have heard one of you Stateside people talk about hanging clothes on the line. Someone told me they were not allowed in the area they lived (Birmingham, Al I think). It is my only way of drying and in winter I have to bring them inside about 3pm and hang them in the hall in front of the heat pump or in the sun in the 2nd bedroom (it gets late afternoon sun while my backyard loses sun by 3pm)

Brian, you're reminding me of a conversation I had with Matthew when he was here in 2009.  We were driving around and passed a house that had one of these:





I don't know what they're really called, I call them 'laundry umbrellas".   So after seeing it, Matthew said he was surprised he hadn't seen more of them around, and that in NZ, just about every house has one.

I turned to him and said:  "Interesting.  Well, in America we have this thing called 'electricity', and we use it to dry our clothes with a dryer."

He looked at me and rolled his eyes.
