When you have all of ONE pair of shorts that you have tried on and know you can wear in public...
and your husband starts the load of laundry...
and your shorts come out sporting beautiful PINK patches from the highlighter he left in his pocket...
and you have to be at the doctor's office with the baby at 9am the next morning?
Hmm... time to go search the dresser...
If you have an Rit dye in a dark color laying around, then take the plunge and dye them. Though, that sounds like a lot of work.
ReplyDeleteOr, you could move to my neck of the woods where no one would notice at all.
Or you could make your husband take you on a shopping spree to buy you new shorts! That would always be fun! I'm sure grandma would love to watch the kids!
ReplyDeleteYou say thank you honey for doing the laundry! Then off to find you a new pair of shorts, asap.

Wait...I'm still stuck on the fact you're wearing shorts! I just let my dogs out to play IN THE SNOW!
ReplyDeleteUm yeah, William doesn't actually touch the washing. I mean, it would be wonderful if he helped out and I'd be thrilled for the help... but there is that 'oops' because he tumble dried something he shouldn't have or all the white socks are grey thing. So... more work for me but then Eden is also so helpful. I just found some clothing of hers I had wondered where they went stuffed behind a chair. She was helping me put the washing away. Note to self... don't hang clothes on the lower part of the clothes horse...
ReplyDeleteHmmm, let's see, you have five kids, three with Ds, one is a newborn, who in their right mind would even question the condition of your clothing??? ;-) Anything other than your bathrobe and bunny slippers will be perfect for this visit to the doctor's office!
ReplyDeleteGive different colored highlighters to the kids and let them further embelish the shorts - call it a new fashion statement!
ReplyDeleteOh no! The men in my house are banned from the laundry machine. One time, chapstick was left in a pocket and everything came out pink and gummy. Another time it was a bunch of Kleenex. And let me tell you, that stuff does not come off wet clothes any too easily ;). Best of luck!
ReplyDeleteI guess I have gotten old and don't care anymore. I would just wear them and not care! LOL!! Hugs to you all!
