watching the wash go round and round
now with colder temperatures upon us, we took our winter comforters out from storage. They smelled like the needed some freshing up so we decided to head out to the local laundromat to get those comforters washed. as you might have guessed, they’re a bit too bulky for the washing machine at home. anyway, we haven’t been to a coin operated laundromat in AGES so it took a while to find one near us.
luckily we found one that had one of the washers that could handle larger loads. it took $8 in quarters plus a couple bucks for detergent (we forgot to bring our own – that’s how out of practice we are!!).
then of course there’s the additional time waiting around for the dryers to do their thang. anyway, it was fun sitting there reminiscing about our youngers days when a visit to the laundromat was a regular requirement.
of course we’re thankful that we no longer have to spend time each week at the coin operated laundromat!! 
Same for us. Only time we go there is to wash the comforters. Probably should wash them more, but ugh. Hate going there and waiting and waiting. We did leave and do some shopping nearby to kill time, but ran the risk someone would walk off with our bedspread. Luckily no one did. Actually, has anyone ever in the history of laudromats ever been so desperate as to steal someone’s laundry? Hmmmm. Goes off and ponders.
Love your blog!
that’s exactly the same reason why we didn’t leave the laudromat.
turns out we gotta go back this week to wash our oldest son’s comforter. that place needs free Wi-Fi or somethin’.
