It is hott here today. 100 is the high so lj and I are camped out in the basement/playroom. I figured it would be a good day to strip diapers because the laundry is down here too. 5 washes later and the diapers are out on the line. Hanging them up reminded me of helping my grandmother hang out her laundry. She didn’t have a dryer (by choice).
I begged for a clothesline for a long time and finally found a retractable one a few weeks ago. Hanging out clothes and towels and rugs has become something I really enjoy. It’s funny to think of the progress in conveniences like dryers disposables and baby food that we are abandoning in favor of other things. I don’t judge what other families do, but for us – at this time – it’s working.
