You know - I'm having one of "those" days - I don't even know what qualifies as a "those" day - but I can say this much, the cherry on top of my 1/2 finished day: Brynn just wet me...it was a warm wet, the kind you get when a diaperless toddler is on your hip...and that topped my day. Her warm pee dripping down the pants and turning cold by the knee of the pants I just washed after having delayed washing for almost 3 weeks because my washing machine apparently hadn't gotten enough praise from me in the last few years.
Mostly, toddler pee is colorless and odorless - but THIS toddler has been out in the sun & it very well may be colorless, but the odor is very "8 year old wet the bed" smelling. On my jeans. I've been doing about 1/3 of the laundry I normally do because my washing machine is just NOT balanced. Since the move, it's less like a washing machine and more like Al Pacino's "good friend" (Can you e-hear the noise his "good friend" makes after he says "say hello to my good friend!" putt putt putt bam BAM BAMMBAMBAMBAMBAMBAM!!!)
My friend finally told me "Go home and change your smelly clothes - I'll take the kids home from swim." I thought kissing her fully on the lips would be appropriate, but instead started to cry as I ran out the door to the sound of Midol calling out for me....
The good news is - I think with this extra hour - I'm going to actually shower and perhaps even brush my teeth - I know - it's the middle of the day, right? Not even Sunday - boy, I'm really pampering myself today, huh?!

lol...nice...
Aw MAN! I hate that! Freshly washed favorite pants, and boom, already dirty.
Try tilting your washer clear forward and then back again (or have dh help). Sometimes that helps it kinda get reseated correctly. Or so I'm told. Mine was having frenzies on every load, too, and it eventually stopped, after I kinda knocked it around a bit. Worth a try, anyway!
Why didn't you just jump in the pool and wash off?? Yeah, I know...you just wanted that "alone" time you need so badly!
Ug. Sorry! I'm with Angela..Did you pay Brynn to do that so you could get some alone time? That is a good one, I'll put that on my list.
