How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

The Act Of A Real Desperate Housewife–#WW

in Everyday on 12/03/13

What happens when your washing machine has been broken for a week and you leave on a trip to Jamaica tomorrow?  This:

Laundry1Laundry2Laundry3

Not enough hours in the day.  Not enough space on the drying rack.  This is the act of a real desperate housewife.  Just saying.

Please leave a comment and don’t forget to link up your Wordless Wednesday’s in the linky below!  I will be sure to return the favour!

      Awe man, that stinks right before a trip! Happened to me recently and I had clothes draped over chairs and couches near our pellet stove to dry quickly. Have a fun trip!

      I’d say that stinks, but you are going to Jamaica. Jealous!

      I hope everything went fine and you are on your way to my homeland, Jamaica! Do have a whale of a time Stephanie!

      Looks like something I would do! Okay, I HAVE done it many times. The one thing I miss about living in Arizona is the opportunity to hang everything outside, everyday, and have it dry in about 10 minutes! Not so much in Portland, OR! HA!

      Eeek! I washed all my towels and comforters last week and then the apartment complex dryers weren’t working. That was a pain, too! Best of luck.

      Nice – my bedroom looked like this on Sunday after doing about 9 loads of laundry. My dryer works just fine but I have a lot of stuff that has to hang dry. You gotta do what you gotta do. 🙂

      I have found many times in life that you have to do different things sometimes to get the job done.

      Put a few more drying racks on your Christmas list, woman!

      I’ve seen my aunt do that before too! Hey if it works… 🙂

      Sad to say …I have been there! 🙁 Have fun!

      Doesn’t this take the varnish off the rail? I was using chairs a couple of times and oh the mess… I’ve had good luck with the curtain rods in the bedroom windows.
