Usually I can save up all the dirty clothes and bedding and just spend one night doing laundry. I like to do laundry on Wednesday nights. I can watch a 30 minute situation comedy, and then run down to the washer and dryer on the hour and the half hour before the start of the next show. I don’t miss any of the shows and the washer and dryer are always done with the cycle by the end of the TV show. So that way I am watching what I want and also getting my laundry done. But it is a bad night if I have something come up that prevents me from being home on Wednesday nights. It doesn’t work out the same way on Thursday night – the shows last an hour, not 30 minutes, and messes up my whole routine.

My cooking is in a rut. I’m sick of the same old stuff, week after week. i wish the economy was better so we could eat out at a nice restaurant once in a while. But we are pinching pennies just like everyone else, so it means eating dinner at home and that, in turn, means that I have to cook. *Sigh*

My yard is over run with squirrels lately. I think the squirrels know that they drive my poor dogs mad when they cavort in my yard, so they are doing it deliberately now. My dogs spend the day sitting in the windows of the living room and watching the yard. When the squirrels come into the yard they bark and howl the entire time. Evil squirrels!

A nice lady at Sam’s Club was giving away free samples of this laundry additive called Oxyclean, so I took one. I don’t usually get my clothes very dirty, but every once in a while I have to do something like work in the garden or some other dirty yard work, and it can be hard to get grass stains out of your clothes. Sure enough, I had to dig up all the rotted vegetable plants that caught the fungus disease and my clothes got filthy. So I tossed in some of the Oxyclean and they came out really clean!
