So, greenie that I am (not!) I dried my washing on an indoor foldout line, or used the dryer. And its been driving me nuts for years! Never enough space, for one thing. And when baby-o came along it just about sent me over the edge. 867 onesies strung up over every available piece of furniture is far from glam when visitors arrive unannounced.So, we took a family trip to dear Bunnings and bought the Hills Hoist. We mounted it on the back of the timber outdoor screen in the courtyard. Which we should have done a year ago, when it was built. And I proceeded to do a load of washing so I could road test it out. People, this thing has rocked my world! Admittedly I am getting nought-enough sleep and strange things inspire great delight right at the mo, but that happy line of sunshine-scented delicates waving softly in the afternoon breeze was enough to make my head spin!
Today it rained and my first thought was "damn, I won't get to use my clothes line!"
It's the small things.
What's something small that's rocked YOUR world, this week?
I have lived without a clothesline for 4 years too! And now our house is for sale and there is no way im putting one in!
ReplyDeleteOne of the things I am most excited about, is moving to a new place with a clothesline (if it doesnt have one, this time its the first thing to go in!) - and not having a clotheshorse permanently set up in the spare room!
Ah, this post has put a smile on my face, I cant believe there is someone else who has done it. hehe. x
No pics???
ReplyDeleteI'd be lost without my clothesline - there's nothing like seeing a load hanging out there in the sunshine. My trouble is when it rains as I don't have a dryer and so I try and cram a whole load's worth of washing on a little drying rack :)
