The Happy Dance ... Over Laundry?


Today I was frighteningly happy because I was able to do laundry.

Don't worry. I haven't lost it completely.

It's just that the real crisis in the toilet backing up was that I have been unable to do laundry or run the dishwasher for two days.

That equaled about six sinks full of dishes and a tower of laundry that included the towels used to mop up the sewage. Gag! Those I bleached in the bathtub, but I don't have time to be doing dishes by hand and beating my laundry on a rock down by the river.

At least I still had flush toilets that worked.

The clog is finally gone. And I feel much better now that I've been able to run a few loads of laundry through the washing machine with hot water and bleach.

I'm not sure if that is cause for celebration or concern.
