Weve been Upgraded

 
Apparently a 1.6 processor on our computer is slow. Who knew. I feel better about blogging cuz I don't have to wait 5 minutes for my pics to upload. I may just get rid of my dial up now. Who knows... Sky's the limit now folks.

WE HAVE FRIENDS

Not only do we have friends (when I say we, I mean me), but they are moving 9/10th of a mile from us. They closed on their house and on Saturday we will help them move in. We will begin Clara's training this week to mindlessly walk over to their house and sit on their front porch until they notice her. She'll say "hi" of course. The problem is Liberty is full of "do-gooders" and will try and stop her from crossing the busy cross street. So traffic awareness with be the hardest part of our training process.
WELCOME TO Whitey-ville Zumies! The Stewart's welcome you.

A laundered diaper La Shay-style

 

 

There is nothing like an organized vacation. everything has its place, everything has its purpose. We arrived in MO with order. All my dirty laundry was in a bag. That bag went swiftly into the laundry room. Before we sat down for pizza, naturally, I started the load of wash. Mentally high-fiving myself for the job well done I enjoyed my pizza.
The next morning I pulled out the wet laundry and discovered gel like balls on all the clothes. Thinking nothing of it I continued to load my dryer. I first discovered between some wet shirts a tore up walmart bag. Shaking my head for my silly over sight I continued to unload the clothes. Hey now what is this, stuffed between the bottom of the wet clothes pile I thought to myself as I lifted up a fully loaded and exploded diaper of Ani's. And as I look inside my entire washer it is slicked down with gel-like beads, bursting from the wash. Ah yes. My organization had a small glitch. A dirty diaper was in my dirty clothes bag, and why not? they both begin with the adjective "dirty", why wouldn't it be categorized together.
Hmm, why is the diaper in a bag? of course because all my poopy diapers go in a bag. Sigh...

Here was my thought process: 1- I could place all the clothes in the dryer with 10 dryer sheets to make sure the gel-like balls separate from the clothes and shake it all off when they are done. Ignoring the washed out poopy diaper all together or 2- shake the clothes out now, wash out the dryer and rewash the clothes.
I choose the latter, due to the preservation of my dryer. I did not want gel-like balls melted onto my dryer barrel.
I left the clothes in the dryer for another day hoping to ignore the potential problem and have new insight a day later.
No insight found.
