We did have sun again here today...had sun all day long yesterday, too. I hung towels on the clothesline yesterday and today I hung sheets and a blanket. I don't think it took the sheets two hours to dry. I used 5 or 6 clothespins on each sheet--if I hadn't I think the fitted sheet would have taken flight and left the area.
When I looked out, it had turned itself inside out and the only thing holding it on the line was the clothespins--in other words it was no longer draped OVER the clothesline. I know from experience that two or three will not hold a fitted sheet on when it is windy like it has been. I glanced out last year or the year before to see one hanging by one single clothespin...I considered myself blessed to have seen it in time.
I have been trying to declutter a little bit. I just try to pick up a bit here and there and either trash it or put with stuff I am going to donate. Some days it is only one or two items, others it may be a dozen things. Today one thing I got rid of was a rice cooker. I used to use it fairly often, but it has been years since I used it so out it goes.
What I want to know, does everyone have stuff sitting around that they don't use. I have really gotten rid of a lot of stuff the past year or two and it is not even missed. I cannot help but think I don't want the girls to have a total mess when I die. Besides that, it would be easier on me if I had less to mess with.
