today is laundry day.
the wind is blowing like crazy.
the month of march we get hurricane strength winds.
it makes me feel bad for those who have to hang their laundry out to dry.
there is dirt blowing everywhere since we are surrounded by farms and unpaved roads.
my dryer broke last summer so I had to hang my clothes out to dry.
I can't tell you how many times I would find bird doo-doo on the clean clothes.
my kids loved to play in the hanging sheets. it was their new fortress.
i guess i love having the option to dry my clothes in the dryer or outside in the clean SUMMER air.
march is definitely NOT the time to be hanging your clean clothes out to dry...outside!

Now there's one thing I DON'T miss about home... the wind and the dirt! lol
I hope your kids remember that when they get older. I still remember playing in between the sheets at my grandmother's house. Since moving to Italy, I discovered how much I love hanging my clothes out to dry. (most Italians don't use dryers) Fortunately, I live on the 9th floor of my building so no worries about dirt and I have yet to find bird poop on anything!
The only problem is that if it's windy, I have to use extra clothes pins or I will lose something forever!
