So I havn't ranted for a while...not because i've not had anything to rant about (theres always something!) i've just not had as much time!
One thing that is driving me craxzy right now is my washing pile!! It never seems to get any smaller! Since I moved home I have yet to buy a proper washing basket so use a corner in my room as a substitute. Every day I look at it I find some excuse not too put one on i.e. it looks like its going to rain, theres not enough wind it will never dry, the machine wont be finished before I leave so I wont have time to hang it out. However the real reason is that doing the washing is such a long winded chore (probably me just being a drama queen!).
Firstly I'll note I do not separate my load into colour, black and whites, my method consists of picking up a random assortment from the top of the pile and throwing it in the machine (unless I have a new item I havnt washed yet then I would separate) first step of laziness. On the way to the machine I drop half of it so have to go and pick bits up. Then I take about 10 mins to set the machine as every time I forget how to put it on! And somtimes still I forget to put in the wee capsule so have to attack the machine to get it to stop so I can pop it in! Then comes the worst part, hanging it out!
When I was at uni it was a pain as we didnt have an outdoor space to hang it up so instead it floated around my room or somewhere in the flat on a screen where I would constantly fall over it and my clothes never dried properly. Luckily now I can hang it outside however it always feels like a mission. Anyone else?? 9/10 I drop the peg basket which is a pain then takes me like 15-20 mins to hang it out. It just seems like a pointless task! What really annoys me is, thanks to the Scottish weather gods, 50% of the time just as i've hung it out the rain comes on resulting in taking the washing back in and rehanging it therefore doubling the task! sigh! By this point I usually abandon my mission and my dad kindly brings in my washing where it lies in the basket for days until I wear it again because I simply cant be bothered to put it away again.
Firstly I'd like to point out I am aware that I may be slightly dramatic and secondly does anyone else think that your mum does it soo much better? Mines definetly makes it look much more easier than I'm sure I make it. If only I had money to buy new clothes everyday and I wouldnt have to wash anything...
