    Default So excited! (for such a small thing)

    Just hung my first load of wash on my new clothesline!
    It might be silly, but it's taken a year to convince the hubs to put one up.

    He's several years younger than I am and comes from a family that always had the latest thing first, so they've never been without a dryer. I grew up old-timey and hung clothes out until I married my first husband (also not old-timey).

    Now I'm hoping the sun comes out! After nearly a solid month of temps 90 - 100, it's cool and overcast!

    Woohoo! Simple Joys are what I call things like that. Hanging out clothes is just so relaxing, the birds are singing & you smile knowing you are saving money not using that dryer. Enjoy!
